Cardiff no doubt have got a strong bunch of players in there squad and they have impressed and surprised many at the start of this season but unfortunately like every club, Wolves are yet to face, a bad patch of form and the only way the Bluebirds are going to get through the form barrier are if they get the right players in, so here are my list of players I think Cardiff could get:
STRIKERS
Name: Tom Bradshaw
Club: Barnsley
Cost: £1 Million
Reason: I think Bradshaw has pace and is not afraid to run at or behind the heart of defence in opponents and is a good goalscorer and is someone Cardiff should consider signing, plus he is quite cheap for a goalscorer who is Welsh.
Name: Rudy Gestede
Club: Middlesborough
Cost: 800k
Reason: Us Cardiff fans know how good Rudy was and if he joined the Bluebirds again he could be a threat in the air and could potentially partner Zohore and would be a deadly partnership up front, and I always liked him for Cardiff.

MIDFIELDERS
Name: Barry Bannan
Club: Sheffield Wednesday
Cost: £1.5 Million
Reason: He is a strong midfielder and a ball winner who can find his strikers up front and is pacey something Warnock might like to buy, and of course Hoilett and Lang would love in the Squad.
Name: Joe Ledley
Club: Derby County
Cost: £2 Million
Reason: Ledley has history with the Bluebirds and of course is a regular starter for Wales, Ledley is physical and can tackle in the midfield, he is similar to Aron Gunnarsson and would improve under Warnock.

WINGERS
Name: Ben Woodburn
Club: Liverpool
Cost For Loan: 10k
Reason: He has bags of talent and is waiting to be opened in the Championship for a loan, and someone like Cardiff would be a home for the youngster and he could of course run on the wings replacing either Lang or Hoilett, but it is a nice option to have and of course he is pacey and can score great goals for us.
________________
I think at least 2 of these additions are affordable for the Bluebirds and would boost Cardiff's chance of automatic promotion
Who do YOU want in the squad for the January Transfer Window

Bradshaw - No - Not better than what we already have up front currently. He only gets mentioned because hes welsh. Plenty of better strikers in this league.
Gestede - yes - BUT there is not a chance in hell Boro would sell him for 800k. Especially to a promotion rival. Add 3/4 million to that price and it would be closer.
Joe Ledley - No - We could have had him for free in the summer why would we pay 2 mill now ?
Barry Bannan - yes - doubt we would get him for 1.5 mill though
Ben Woodburn - yes - BUT the loan fee would be a lot more than 10k and he is a gamble as he is so young and inexperianced especially in the championship playing every 3 days.
