Bristol City star bags PFA award
Basso has recently been voted the BBC West footballer of the year (Getty)
Bristol City goalkeeper Adriano Basso has been named the PFA Championship player of the month for March.
The Brazilian's efforts have helped to keep City in the title hunt, including a penalty save against Watford which he said was inspired by the Holy Spirit.
"We work very hard, we give our best, so it's something to be proud of," Basso told BBC Radio Bristol.
"The team get more confidence in me when I help by saves or by talking and organising the defence."
Interview: Bristol City goalkeeper Adriano Basso
The PFA monthly awards are voted for by supporters over the internet, and are not connected to the Football League's official monthly awards.
Manager Gary Johnson was quick to praise his goalkeeper, who is a devout Christian.
"It's a bit disappointing," he quipped. "The good news is he deserves it, the bad news is that it looks like you're under pressure when your goalkeeper gets manager of the month.
"But he's deserved it, what he's had to do, he's done really well. Even the easy saves he's made look comfortable.
"Credit to him, I'm sure he got an extra vote or two from his mates 'up there', but he deserves all the accolades he gets because he's had a fantastic couple of seasons.
when your keeper gets manager of the month lol
even the easy saves he has made look comfortable duh

A devout Christian goalie should be good on crosses.

According to the Actim index, our cider-quaffing friend is correct about Basso. We still have the best player in the league though!  |

Clearly Basso has had lots of practice plugging up Bristols leaks! One day we'll see how good Nash is but hopefully he'll carry on not having much involvement! ;D
