Team and Future

Fri Nov 06, 2020 11:30 pm

Smithies and DIllion.......two excellent keepers

Tutu...young has potential..maybe better utilised in front of solid rt back
Bacuna ... mister pass backwards... not good enough as rt back

Bamba needs to be in backroom staff now..too slow
Morrison...involved in errors in too many slow starts
Nelson..positional play questionable art times
Benkovic...need to see him start

Bennett..blows hot and cold
Bagan...perhaps needs to start before Bennett

Ralls..involved in giving ball away too often and not switching on in defence
Pack... no pace
Vaulks no pace and switches off

Ojo lacks fight and getting past defender
Hoillet... coming to his end
Murphy...lacks deisire and committment
Whyte...lacks quality
Wilson...Quality... but not enough around him
Tomlin..quality but injury prone.

Moore..not a 15 -20 goal striker
Glatzel....not good enough


Harris.... nice guy but not the quality Manager Cardiff need... Cannot get the best out of this squad ..which lacks quality in all departments..
Cardiff have tried the cheap option before and we have seen where that got us...they have tried it again and now we ae struggling again..

Unfortunately NON Football people are making poor decisions... until we invest in a Quality Manager who can bring in Quality Players we have to except the norm with the board we have

Mid Table at most

So who do we suggest appoints new manager when that situation arises ?
We all have different opinions on players and manager.. but at end of the day.. we are purely fans.. supporters of our fabulous club..

Tend to agree with most of the above.

Goals win games, get points on the board.
We may not have a 20 goal striker , but there are enough goals in this side if coached correctly,

NH and his staff are not the team for this club.

Kimble you ave nailed it. Not since Dave Jones have we had a team that gets us off out seats. We are to slow, lack fight, midfield with no pace, back four not good enough. Unfortunately, NH is not the manager to take us forward. People don’t agree with me on here, but I believe Bellamy would be the manager to change the philosophy, change the way we play. It would be football to get excited about. I think a strong number two with him and he would be the man. :bluescarf: :banghead: :bluescarf: :banghead: :banghead: :bluescarf: :banghead: I don’t think the board have the balls or the brain to see this. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

The Jacks Manager a Bluebird in disguise would be a good choice. He’s had less money than Harris but doing well again this season?
