Aron Gunnarsson, Cardiff City’s Icelandic Warrior, has been packed off to Dubai by manager Neil Warnock.

Midfield battler ‘Gunnar’ flew out last week and Warnock says: “He hasn’t had a break since before Iceland knocked England out of the Euro finals.

“Aron is on a beach in Dubai and he’s sent me a picture.”

Gunnarsson has made 20 appearances for the Bluebirds this season, scoring twice, and is a crucial part of Warnock’s plans for the rest of this season.

He played the full 90 minutes of City’s 1-0 home win against Aston Villa and then flew out for a break which Warnock believes will result in him returning refreshed and ready to go again.

Iceland’s captain, a relentless, tough tackling defensive midfield player, is a certain starter for Cardiff in their Championship match against Bristol City at Ashton Gate this Saturday (Noon kick-off).

Gunnarsson, the man who scored Cardiff’s first ever Premier goal more than three years ago in the 3-2 win against Manchester City, loves playing under Warnock.

“The gaffer is playing me in a defensive midfield role, which is where I play for my national team,” says Gunnarsson. “I’ve been playing a bit further up the field with the last couple of Cardiff managers.

“Defensive midfield is where I feel most comfortable. My job is to help the team out and give the ball to more skilful players to push forward.

“Keeping a solid back line is my aim and my job for the national team – now it is for Cardiff City too.”

Both Cardiff and Bristol City are just outside the relegation zone, level on 27 points each, although the Bluebirds have a game in hand.

Just show how much Neil Warnock rates Aron Gunnarsson and backs/cares for him, now Warnock please make him Captain

I'll second that

He's our main man. Wrap him up in cotton wool then unleash the beast

Safest place for Gunnar and well away from today's meaningless friendly in China, where Iceland beat the hosts 2-0.
Also hopefully his phone is off so he can't get any calls from his agent about any move to a lower Premier League side.

Warnock is a man manager which is why he has been so successful in his career.

hopefully we can keep warnock for a while, bresh of fresh air. something we've lacked for a few years!!
