Exclude the left back and I agree with you.

We need a battling midfielder in the likes of Bullard, Barton and Nobby Stiles. A striker is our first priority very closely followed by this midfielder.

But haven't we got a battling midfielder on Gunnarsson?
The problem is he can't pass water and yesterday he was like a headless chicken.

Agree! I have always liked gunnar and believe he does make some good passes. But yesterday thought he was poor 1st half and at fault for poor marking on Jerome. Loads better 2nd half but not mom yesterday

The thing is he is a favourite with Cardiff fans because he fits the stereotype, its the same with Warnock now as Manager, the blood and guts rhetoric will always supersede ability when it comes to some of our fans.

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against either Gunnarsson or Warnock but neither are what they are made out to be on here at times.

Good post. I, also, like Gunnarsson and Warnock and Gunnar has had some great games recently but he can only do what he does which doesn't include decent passing or even linking up play in the midfield very well.
In a battle he's just what we need.

100% agree. I love gunnar, but a lot of our fans overlook his limitations whilst critising Ralls (latest scapegoat) or the perennial favourite of the blood and guts lynch mob, Whitts.

Personally I think Gunnarson is the best we have but we need better to challenge for the play offs next season.

I agree with this but I can imagine if Warnock gets his wish for backing in the transfer market he will build his team around him.

Ahh I know the type of posters you're on about. The ones that think Whitts should be all things including box to box dynamo, running around like a headless chicken and slamming into tackles like Vinny Jones.

We need a Paul Thorburn or a Leigh Hafpenny who can smash the ball high and long into the opposition half

i think he'll cash in on Gunnar. I believe he'll find 2 six foot mobile athletic players to go with Ralls.

Whitts & Gunnar are not mobile enough. In our current backs to the walls set up Gunnar is essential, but a counter attacking team needs a play maker and Gunnar isn't that.

Wooow- I am not talking Juan Mata, more like Kevin Nolan. But, someone who can at least can execute basic passes.

I guess you wasn't there yesterday, he butchered two counters with shocking "passing"
