' KIM BO-KYUNG LIKELY TO LEAVE '
Kimbo hasn’t settled into Championship football this time around. The South Korean international wanted to play in the Premier League helped Cardiff achieve that aim last time out at this level, but Cardiff’s top flight visit was too brief and it’s been a difficult time for Kim in the second tier in 2014.
He oozed creative ability playing for the Premier Development League team and earned a recall to the starting X1. But Kim came up short against Rotherham and dipped again at Bournemouth.
When Bournemouth scored their second goal, Kim failed to spot Matthew Connolly had gone forward and didn’t track back. Bournemouth won possession, ran into a huge amount of space down that side and scored.
Kim clearly knew what his mistake had been and his head was bowed as the home players celebrated.
I don’t expect Kimbo to be given a third chance when Brentford come to Cardiff City Stadium and he is likely to be moving on in the transfer window.
I thought Mats Daehli would start ahead of Kim at Bournemouth, but that didn’t happen.
Daehli is desperate to play football and will want to move on if he doesn’t get a chance. He is a hugely talented, creative player, but may not fit into the system Cardiff want to play.

Kim isn't a wide player in a 4-4-2. I think he could do well at another club.

Agree (almost) fully. There are a few more players I would keep, Fabio etc but your totally right about the tactics.
