Many links, but no signings!

Cardiff City are yet to make any additions to the squad that secured promotion to the Premiership and with players due to regroup soon to begin the pre-season regimes there is understandably some concern and desire to announce some positive news soon.

With City now more prominent, the transfer rumours have been more outrageous and fictitious than ever before but there are a number of confirmed reports of players we are interested in and with whom we have spoken to either the club or player's representatives.Bafetimbi Gomis, Tom Ince, Wanyama, Cattermole are all widely reported to be 'close' to agreeing a move but as anyone in football knows - that means virtually nothing.

Malky is incredibly thorough, and the calibre of our reported targets necessitates that he will have to work hard to show our ambition and potential so there are bound to be a high number of disappointments especially when compared to other potential suitors like Liverpool who also showed striong interest in Tom Ince.

There is plenty of time to bring in new faces, but it is widely recognised that the earlier you can establish a core of players and give them time to 'gel' as a squad - the better. We cannot affort to start the season slowly, once you are a couple of points adrift it becomes incredibly difficult to play catch-up. Hopefully there will be some movement this or next week to nicely build the anticipation and add to the promising squad we already have.

ok thanks

As if you wrote that yourself.

There ain't been that much going on anywhere really,just one or two here and there.I think this time next week will see a couple of signings at least.

I didnt u edda its from a link and thats the head line no way would i write all that out, just passing on a story.

Its right in a way though the quicker the team is built and can gel the better. Id be worried if a team was chucked together in a 3/4 weeks time and was expected just to go out and win. Pre season games are around the corner!

I could tell, you 'edda'.

I know what your saying but this is like the calm before the storm-July is normally mental.

The waiting game is always a little frustrating.

This says it all for me and we simply have to be patient a little longer, allowing Malky to do his work. He appears to be backed by Vincent Tan and appears to know what/who he wants

Patience, they say, is a virtue but where Cardiff City is concerned it's a pain in the ass!!

Malky can take all the time he wants. As long as he gets what he wants and gets them all by Sept 1st I will be happy.

I know patience is a virtue but wouldnt you prefer the squad to be together as soon as possible so they can start 'geling' and working on a style of play so their ready for the big game against west ham?

No I'd rather we signed the right players an stayed in the prem

I would, fella, and I am a little surprised given that we weresupposedly 'first out of the blocks' following our early promotion, therefore gaining a start on others. However, on balance I have enough faith in Malky to believe that he will do 'what is right when it is right' and that may mean us being a little more patient (which, as I said, is a pain in the butt for us all, as we want a signing per day to keep us going! LOL )

And why do cardiff have to wait until the last minute to buy 'the right player', these players should have been scouted and bought at the earliest oppurtunity like otha teams have done

I think your right mate every1 is so bored the season is over we just want something or some good news to get the blood pumpin lol
