Alfie Doughty:

Doughty loves it

Cardiff loan star Alfie Doughty says he has loved his time at the club so far, adding that the dressing room is "top class".

Doughty joined the Bluebirds on loan in January from parent club Stoke City but was injured almost immediately, with an ankle knock preventing him from really bedding in in south Wales. But since his return to fitness, the youngster has shown what he can do, and he grabbed his first goal for the club against Reading at the weekend.




ALFIE DOUGHTY:


"I love it here and want to keep playing," he said. "I’ve loved every single second that I’ve been here, they’ve shown me respect and the whole dressing room is top class. We’re just aiming to finish as well as possible; we know how good we are, we’ve got to show how well we can apply pressure to every other side, and if we win the last six games who knows where we could end up.



"We’ve now won five games from six and it demonstrates how far we’ve come. There’s such a great morale within the club and with the boys, and the sky’s the limit taking that into next season.”

“The performance was first class and the win demonstrated that,” he added. “It’s a show of the character that we’ve got in the team because we bounced back straight away from last week with a victory. After their goal went in, we picked ourselves up and went again; we don’t give up and owed it to the fans to take three points. I got my first goal for the club too and it’s just one of those feelings that sets you on the right path - fortunately it led to us winning 2-1."

Sounds like he might fancy another season here Annis...

Once you get decent player to come here they don’t want to leave

I was not only surprised by his inclusion on Saturday but also that we was playing in a front 3, interchanging with Colwill and popping up on the right quite a bit.

Was excellent to see and he did an grand job.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him at city next season and on Saturday's performance I think playing further up the pitch suits him.

I hope we see a lot less of 5 at the back from now on, although I'm not convinced by Ng in a two centre back pairing.
