Pearson sends message to his Bristol City strikers as Semenyo return provides welcome dilemma

Nigel Pearson won't rush Antoine Semenyo back into the starting line-up with Bristol City's forward line fit and firing.

The striker has returned two goals in just 47 minutes of action following his return from a shin injury picked up over the summer including scoring within two minutes of his introduction to drag City level against Blackpool on Saturday.

His comeback is a welcome selection dilemma for Pearson with an attacking force that has wasted little time in picking up where they left off last season. City are already the joint highest scorers in the Championship with 11 goals in their first six matches and the form of Tommy Conway in particular has been another major positive to the club's start of the campaign.
