Trippier had just signed a new three year deal with City before this game and outshone even Craig Bellamy in this game. he captained the side which was made up of youngsters and senior fringe players and it was he who struck a long range winner late in the first half.
Bellamy was all set to take a shot but Trippier pushed him out of the way to get on it. Bellamy remained quiet after the game too, allowing Trippier to do the talking, and he said: "I pushed forward and thought ‘I’m going to have a go here.’ But I had Bellamy screaming at me on the other side. “I’m glad it went in otherwise I’d have got a bit of a rollicking.
"When it went in, he said: ‘I was going to rollick you then.’ And he started laughing. That’s what he’s like. He’s a good guy, and I’ve learned a lot from him.”
He admitted after the game that he'd probably have to go out on loan again, and added: "If a team came in for me with a loan offer, I’d consider it because I want to play games. Last season I played more than 35 games.
“I want to better myself, I’m only young and I need to learn. Going into the Championship would benefit me.”
