KTC set to leave Cardiff

Sun Aug 17, 2014 12:01 pm

Rumour is that KTC is leaving for St Etienne. To be honest, I think it would be a good move for all parties. Brayford is better and Connolly can slot in there, he will not be missed :thumbup:

How much did we pay for him?

Started really well for us (hard not too, considering how shite Connolly was at RB at start of last season), but never found same form after a few small injuries.

Not good enough, hopefully he completes a move elsewhere.

Weren't it something like £2.5m

Very average and not worth what we paid for him. Probably lose mil+ on him but he's behind brayford and fabio for me.

KTC works really hard for the team and defends well, but his touch further up the field is one of the many reasons we struggled last year; simply too much ball needlessly wasted and counter-attacks resulting in opposition goals, I'm afraid

Brayford looks the part at the moment (making it even more baffling why Malky wouldn't play him) and KTC would maybe be better moving on and if that occurs, I wish him all the best and thank him for his efforts at Cardiff City FC :thumbup: :ayatollah:

I agree - KTC always put a shift in and was a useful ish defender - I think he even had a hand in one of our winning goals (Fulham or WBA home?).

He won't be budging Brayford - but good luck to him.

He does work hard but thats about it in my opionion, he switches off far to often defensively and for all his enthusiasm going forward he offers little.

Brayford will be first choice and id think Fabio would move ove to RB before we seen KTC

Good luck to KTC

That would leave us a bit thin on the backs, IMO. It´s not said that Connolly will be equally successful at the back in case of injuries.

We do have Connolly, Cala, Hudson, Morrison and Turner to come back in a few months at CB.

RB we have Brayford, Fabio can come across, Connolly can cover for a game, even Gunnarrson. Plus the advantage of the championship is we can loan players in unlike the prem.

If he goes, it is an area we need to bring in. Odd to loan out Kev though.

Good luck.

Expect this is to get closer to his family, due to his recent bereavement.

A good bloke, never once complained if he was left out of the team.

Got a lot of time for him :ayatollah:

Jazzi BB looked good midweek albeit against weaker opposition.

I don't see why, we still have plenty of option at RB.

The loan market remains open as well

Jazzi Barnum-Bobb and Thomas James can easily be given a go. I'm sure Fabio has played there before as well. Gunnarsson too.
