sorry, but you have to draw a line somewhere, another shocking performance from a player who has not been at his best for well over a year now.

Sad but true. He was awful today. I think he stormed down the tunnel when he was subbed, not like him.

His passing get's worse by the week, and that's saying something, coz it was never great!

Been a great player over the past seasons but I'm afraid watching him today he's past his best I'll never knock him but we must move on.

Wasnt that bad today as people make out. Malky is trying to play a style which doesnt suit him end of. He wasnt the worse defender out there by far. Yes he cant distribute for shit but its not his game he certainly wasnt the only one. Kinda funny how since Malky has come in he's been poor. Says it all.

So passing the ball to his owm team isnt his style??

No playing wingback isnt his style as in crossing the ball. Malky likes his wingers cutting in and letting the fullbacks bomb on. If you notice since Malky has become manger Mcnaugton has been playing badly. It isnt his game. He's a cracking defender and made some good tackles today.

Of course but think was it his role under Jones when he was at his best to be the main crosser of the ball. No. Since malky he's been made to play that role due to his insitence to have his widemen cut in. Defensively mcnaughton was fine.

Re: This will be McNaughton's last season here at Cardiff

I've noticed over the years he's slow to find form ,after injury.He's the only defender we've got with any pace.Cut him some slack.

Know what you're saying yes, but I still think this is his last season. Even though Taylor was poor today also, his delivery is top class if you ask me.

I think Taylor is very poor. Defensively is shocking constantly out of position. Both goals came from his side though first goal cant blame him (should never of counted) but was constantly exposed. He's not good enough for a title pushing team. I think mcnaugton is purely as he has been playing at his best for numerous seasons under Jones. He's shot of confidence currently and I blame Malky (and I'm a fan of Malky)

Agree that this will be his last season. A shame, but he was so off form today and it was a big chance for him to put a claim in for the right back spot.

Agreed again. Taylor is poor yes and usually looks unfit. Probably just his little strut in his walk, but a lot of goals come from his side and would definitely need to replace him if we went up. But can't fault his delivery into the box, the complete opposite to McNaughton's.

sometimes you have to be cold hearted and look at things objectively, and i'm sure malky will be very reluctant to put him back in the team - i think its time to move him on or at the very least loan him out to try and regain that sharpness that you can only get from playing every week. :ayatollah:

Re: This will be McNaughton's last season here at Cardiff

Mon Dec 17, 2012 2:07 pm

He won't be loaned out, surely ideal for the bench.

Great servant to this club, past seasons he was probably one of the most important players in the squad, and for that I am grateful...great guy too. Yes, I think we may be seeing the decline of super Kev at Cardiff but I'm not about to slate one of the few long standing servant to this club, cos im not a f*cking pleb......I am a SUPPORTer.

If you could merge them together you'd have a great player, one can defend and one can attack.

However, you can't merge them and as I've found out in Football Manager, both have to go in the bame of progress. :D

keV is still a top defender, sadly his distribution is awful, I think first 4 times he touched the ball on Sat he gave it away.

Still found the substitution strange mind as Gunnarson is so reluctant to get forward other than to take throw ins!
Was that the reason he was brought on?

Re: This will be McNaughton's last season here at Cardiff

You act like this is something new?

Ent like he ent been out for a while?

Support the boys ffs.

you could say its since malkys come in he has been poor but i think it was because burke went.
last season he played behind cowie who doesnt take on his man like burke did or run down the line like burke did

Kev was never a good passer but previously he wasn't this bad, could be a confidence thing?
He played well with smith earlier in the year.

It was a disaster Saturday for Kev but its not over for him. He will be back.

I think you have to ask the question.. Could he cut it in the Premier League? The answer is no.

Same goes for Taylor. Although I think Hudson, Connolly and Turner would.

To me Rhys an irrelevant question until it happens.
