Joe Williams has declared he wants to finish Bristol City’s season “as strong as possible” in a short message on social media showing his desire to get back to first-team action with the Robins for the final seven games of the campaign.
Williams missed City’s final game before the international break, the 2-2 draw against West Brom, after sustaining another hamstring injury - his third this season, and fourth injury overall - in the preceding match at Barnsley, having been brought on as a substitute for 16 minutes.
There had been initial doubt over Williams’ involvement for the remainder of the campaign, as the Everton academy graduate has appeared in 18 of a possible 39 Championship games for the Robins due to a succession of hamstring problems.
