GUTTED: " CARDIFF CITY TEAM TODAY "

Gutted:




Ng misses out through injury. BUT GOID NEWS @Joe_Ralls & @harrywilson_ come in.


Perry Ng doesn't make it, so it looks like Joe Ralls at left wing-back to me.

Harry Wilson and Leandro Bacuna will likely play in behind Kieffer Moore.

Sam Bowen and Rubin Colwill on the bench, great day for them

No wing backs and no wingers defensive set up.

Flat back 4 or Ralls at Wing Back?

Ralls left wing back keeping to 5 at the back if ralls was not playing wb then we woulc have 4 in midfield which i dont think it would be

Surely bacuna is better suited at Wing back ?

well that team worries me unless they are up for it, i just don't like vaulks, pack, bacuna and ralls all in same team, but hey what do i know,

we need result too defensive hopefully got something up his sleeve if going pear shaped no wingers could Connor Roberts over run us

Could be 4 4 1 1 or as you say Ralls as a wing back in in 5 3 2.
Looks like trying to contain them and then maybe attack late on.
.

Make shift defence. Gutted really. Sadly, I think this is the double day. Question is whether McCarthy will recovery from defeat or will it be forever held against him?

its negative, keep it tight and nick one from a set play.

going to put a couple of quid on draw and Aden Flint anytime

Mick,

Vaulks, Ralls,Pack & Bacuna get you the sack mate...........

I’d only show Ralls the door unless we get promoted and then I’d show the 4 of them the door

Cardiff City have been dealt a seismic blow tonight with the omission of Perry Ng.

The wing back has been one of Mick McCarthy’s best performers since he took over, but that whack on the knee against Stoke is enough to render him unfit for this evening’s clash.

It means Joe Ralls has been roped in to the unfamiliar position of left wing-back in a back five, with Cardiff also having no defensive options whatsoever on their bench.

Tom Sang retains his spot at right wing-back, while Will Vaulks and Marlon Pack are paired together in the middle.

No Josh Murphy or Sheyi Ojo, either, they will have to settle for spots on the bench, with Leandro Bacuna and Harry Wilson likely to play in behind Kieffer Moore.

On the bench, there are spots for academy products Sam Bowen and Rubin Colwill, a proud day for both of them.

The attacking options look strong for McCarthy, with Murphy, Ojo, Junior Hoilett, Jonny Williams, Max Watters and Mark Harris all among the replacements.

BBC are suggesting that Pack will play in the back 3 with Sang and Brown as full backs. God help us if true, We never have any luck. I am not sure I can watch this now. Feel sick already. 1 nil down in ten minutes here we come.
