Was much much better today, but he had a lot more support from his team mates,

well done to him, and well done to Malky's tactics to ensure we were safer downthe flanks

Gary Medel again, was instrumental in our win, what a purchase he has been already, my guess is that he'll be our player of the season.

I'm still in shock, my voice has gone, but wow, What a day. The atmosphere was unreal! :malky:

I noticed that he doesn't mark his winger stands off 5 yards so he doesn't get to exposed by lack of pace.Thought the players today totally give everything they had and more and as long as we see that commitment every game we will be ok.I would of snatched your hand off for the draw a win was unthought of.Well done every member of Cardiff city played their part.

He was very good today. A lot of the criticism from the West Ham game wasn't fully warranted, and he's shown he can play well at Prem level today.

That said however, I really can't wait to see Bradford. Most of the time Connolly had the ball in advanced positions, you could tell he is really a CB being played out of position. I'm excited to see what Brayford can create in those kind of situations.
