‘He’s coming on leaps and bounds. He’s coming in every day and asking what we can do more. That is what you want from a young player. He’s learning. It's not always going to go that way, that's the way football is, but his willingness to work is brilliant."


Kion Etete Striker, aged 21: 10 appearances / 0 goals Bluebirds

Notts County 4 appearances / 0 goals

Cheltenham Town 13 appearances / 3 goals

Northampton Town 18 appearances / 3 goals



Etete for me needs to start about 5 games in a row.

Cardiff City will pay Spurs £500,000 on Etete’s 20 Championship appearance.

such a difficult thing though, with Robinson playing so well as the number 9, do we drop him into the number 10 role, to allow Etete play as the forward. because 433, we're getting over run in midfield far to often and with a 442 i think we would also get over run

I do understand what you're saying but, if we play CR at 10, one of their midfielders would need to drop very deep to watch him which would effectively even things out (in principle). Think we should try it at home.

I agree that he needs a run of games and the manager (and us !!) need to allow him to grow into the team.

He’s got something about him. He’s not an out and out target man but he can certainly bring others into the game.

I’d like to see him in the same starting line up as Robinson and Colwill. There’s enough fire power there to trouble most teams at this level in my opinion.
