Russell Slade: " Theres more to come "

17/12/15

I still think there’s more improvement to come. We can do better, there’s more to come from us. That’s a good sign because there’s progress to be made.

There’s the transfer window coming too on top of that. It’s a big period. It’s a big period for everyone in the top 10 or 11. It’s very tight. Anyone who can get three or four wins, who can get some momentum, a little run will be in a good position in the new year.

Good on him. He's proving a lot of people wrong. He's had it tougher than a few of the last managers we've had. He's had to put up with nonsense from fans who blame him for everything too.

It takes time to change a clubs playing philosophy. We were a hoof all team which was very embarrassing. At least we can pass a ball now. He worked from the back to begin with. A lot of clean sheets. Now we're opening up and scoring some goals. Now give him the time he deserves to find the right balance and we could be in for a special season. Imagine a premier league season in blue. The playoffs are a lottery, support the team AND manager and we may just push them there.

Dream on mate. Slade himself brought the hoof ball to Cardiff City. It was Trollope who got us playing on the ground to feet, a real coach! It's Slade that is always looking over his shoulder that he dare not.lose. This would indicate to Morrison to hang back as the lead centre half in case we get caught out in midfield. This ties the whole team back, no guts, no glory
Best thing is to move Slade up as director of football as he has good knowledge, then move Trollope to lead coach. Seriously this would be a good move. Get Manga back in now!!

Manga back in would be good. A pacy winger or kadeem? Feels like we have stumbled to where we are, if we hit form and stop dropping points like we just have then who knows. We'd be right up the top tonight if we win and had just kept it tight at home
