Cardiff City Sky Sports
Sunday 30th July 2016
All the transfer news, predictions and odds ahead of Cardiff City's 2016/17 Sky Bet Championship campaign.
Last year's finish: 8th
Manager: Paul Trollope
Title odds: 33/1
First five games: Birmingham (A), QPR (H), Blackburn (H), Fulham (A), Reading (H)
Players In: Frederic Gounongbe (Westerlo, Free), Jazz Richards (Fulham, Player Exchange), Kenneth Zohore (KV Kortrijik, Undisclosed)
Players Out: Scott Malone (Fulham, Player Exchange), Ben Turner (Burton Albion, Free)
Expectation: Cardiff performed well on a restricted budget last season and despite having a new man at the helm, we have a group of players who have been together for a couple of years now. There's a good standard in the squad and more importantly, there are four or five match winners. The Bluebirds should be confident about securing a play-off place this season but the quality of teams coming down from the Premier League means automatic will be a big ask.
Most Important player: We don't have standout players but when Lex Immers joined on loan last season, he completely changed the focus of our play and he can make a difference this term.
Cardiff are a solid side, full of experience but they might just lack a goalscorer to get them into the top-six. They’ll win plenty of games though.
Ian Holloway
Dark horse? Bristol City
One Championship player you'd want to sign? Ross McCormack
Ollie's prediction: 8th

The way he has been talking about us recently I expected him to have us down as champions.

Think he's spot on with his lack of top goalscorer could cost us play offs AGAIN
