The amount of work they are putting in every game is immense.They have conceded so much possession against the top sides which means they are running themselves into the ground for the shirt.Teams are coming here having cost £150-200m yet we are going toe to toe with them.Also the fans have been brilliant,the ccs is really looking and sounding the part-every home game has felt like an f.a cup game(very intense)Win or lose we are all in this together,long may it continue "KEEP IT UP CITY"!!

You are basically having 2 defenders to take care of every attacker for the opposition. The key is finding a balance and apart from the Man City game you have averaged only 1 shot on target in each of the remaining 4 games.

Didn't you go 4 games without scoring in your 1st season?
I agree we need to find the right balance but we had a few good chances/opportunities against Tottenham but failed with the last pass. 4 points at home against 3 of the top 6 is a good return and not losing against Hull could be crucial come the end of the season. I'm hoping we open up a bit more tonight and then Newcastle home where we need 3 points

Yes we did. but we didnt spend £30 million and have a base of a championship winning side.
in our first 4 games included Man City and Arsenal both away. But we created plenty of chances, just couldnt tuck them away. in our opening 4 games we had 24 shots ON TARGET and remained undefeated against everyone outside the big 6 all by spending £8.8m onntop of our play off side.

Premier league was much weaker when you went up,everyone is spending big this year and it's tougher.Don't fret yourself about how many shots we have had on target,u might have a breakdown.Anyway Cardiff will get it right-we will be just fine.
