The Fabio love in

Good looking kid, try's hard and gives his shirts away but what a poor full back !!!!! If Malone, Peltier or heaven forbid Whitts played that bad there would be murder on here.

Conditions were awful today for Fabio to make runs.
He always gives 100% :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Fabio should be a winger unless played in a back 5 .

Saying he's a poor full back is a bit harsh though he's more than capable at this level

What I can't understand is the Johnny Williams love-in.

When he played for Forest here a few weeks ago and again today he looked distinctly average. Fell over today every time Fabio went near him and ran around to no effect whatsoever.

Yet when he went off some of our fans were applauding him - why?

He's never played for Cardiff. Why should we applaud him just because he's Welsh?

At least Maynard played for the club so that's a bit more understandable.

I just don't understand why anyone would applaud an opposition player just because of his nationality.

It's cringe but it's been creeping in for a long time, there will be poeple giving Tayor and Williams a right round of applause next time they come here whenever that may be. I thought he was crap today personally.

His positional play is awful, yes he is an 100 percenter but for a man on top wages and from Man U I expect a lot more

Cant believe hes a professional footballer, luckiest man alive

I aint a Fabio fan. He cant defend, his positional play is woeful, he cant pick a pass, his crossing is embarrassing and he cant head a ball for toffee. In the plus column, he tries hard and is quick. Is that really enough for a team that hankers after a play off spot? How on earth he has played at a higher level is beyond me. But what do I know? Im stupid enough to buy ST to watch that shit we saw today week in week out. Seriously, they were awful and we weren't good enough to beat them.

He's a Brazillian international don't you know. We haven't had many of them in out time :ayatollah:

In the last fifteen minutes or so,their best player Josh Murphy (glad he was on the bench!) Totally destroyed Fabio every time he got the ball. A good thing others covered for him. Up against a tidee winger he is exposed.

Just not good enough at this level but his effort is commendable
