George Wood pays compliment to City third choice keeper Arran Lee-Barrett.
"Arran is quite cocky and arrogant - and any goalkeeper needs that to succeed. If you don't have that touch of arrogance as a 'keeper then forget it.
"Arran knows he must push Neil Alexander and Martyn Margetson this season," said Wood.
"He has set himself high standards and he has a good attitude to the job ahead. Arran has been excellent since he joined us and the only thing against him is that he isn't playing first-team football.
"But he has character and is working hard to put the two 'keepers who are ahead of him under pressure."

Also in other news - the Wales squad to travel to Belgrade to face Serbia on Aug 20 should be announced today. City players Robert Earnshaw, Daniel Gabbidon and Rhys Weston will probably play a part in the senior squad, with James Collins having a look in at U21 level.
As this date has not been designated a full international date, no Cardiff City first team matches will be affected. The home game with Watford on Sept 6 may well be postponed as Wales travel to Milan to face the Italians that day, and City are almost certain to have at least three players involved.
