EROL BULUT: “ TELLS HIS PLAYERS “

by **Forever Blue** » Mon Apr 01, 2024 8:46 am

Having been beaten at Swansea City before the international break, Bulut's side suffered a bleak home defeat to a Sunderland side containing 16,17,18 & 19 year olds on Friday.

“I’ve told my players to wake up again and start winning games.”

"I hope from Monday we are going to show a different Cardiff City," the Bluebirds manager said.

"We lost confidence. I don't know why because the team had confidence.”

"The fans are also disappointed, for sure, maybe more than us because they support us everywhere. They travel everywhere.

"We want to give them as much as possible, everything back, and at least to fight and run and to try, and not give up so early."

After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Cardiff have progressed during this campaign.

"We know how to wake up again, how we did it before, and I hope we do it quickly because on Monday we play against Coventry," he said.

"Every player has to get back to his best performance, his best shape, and we try to make the best of the last seven games, for the fans, for the club and also for himself.

"When you see the whole season, there were too many ups and downs with the performances.

"When we could have consistency in performance, maybe we could have a few points more."

Consistency being the operative word there.

We have gone from one extreme to the other in a very short time. That is what has destroyed us.

Erol Bulut:

“We have looked back at videos from Friday to see what we can do better. The very least we can do is to fight."

Spot on Ian.

On my way to Coventry and don’t expect a result. They’re hitting form at the right time and a good shout for the play-offs.

But let’s just see a bit of fight today. Plenty of City fans travelling, we deserve at least that.

I'd love our players to put a shift in but maybe they're on the beach already?

Where is the professing pride and will to win?

Do the players respect Bulut and are they motivated by him?

Answers on the back of a ciggie packet please. Totally Jekyll and Hyde form from City.

Needs to not be so defensive. The 2 defensive midfielders stifles any attacking impetus the team could have.

Need to have a combination of these 3 starting today. Turnbull / Ramsey / Sio / Colwill.

We aren't going down so we should just go for it, play some attacking football and give the kids a run out
