Cardiff Signings in the PL

Fri Sep 04, 2015 9:33 am

We were linked with Gomis and Diouf.

Looking at how Gomis and Diouf are doing in the PL, how much of a difference could these have made to our season instead of signing Cornelius?

And Montero, if these had come off we could still be up there!

I also think this transfer window we had was brilliant, got rid of players stealing a living and kept our better players.

We had completed the deal with Diouf. It all was in place, but his replacement signing in Germany fell through in the final hour, and Hannover pulled out of the deal. The way things go sometimes, but would have made a differense, im sure.

Don't forget Victor Wanyama, he was close to signing. What a powerhouse, would of bossed our midfield.

We can only dream now! Stuart o'keefe will have to do

To be fair we signed Medel instead and he's better than Wanyama

It's all about opinions but for me Medel promised so much but delivered very little .It seems he didn't want to be at Cardiff and couldn't wait to leave .

Wanyama is a better midfielder than Amedeo, Medel's best place is in a back three.

Of course he was wank for us the moment he decided he didn't want to be at Cardiff and wanted to ensure he was fit at the World Cup.

Because we offloaded Eikrem, a squad player on an obscene wage and replaced him with O'Keefe on a third of Eikrem's wage, who's proven to be just as good a squad player for us.

Why replace eikrem with someone you won't play. Just let eikrem go.
