USE YOUR PLAYERS, MALKY

Sun Apr 01, 2012 10:54 am

We're going for a play-off place, but I can't see us getting it if Malky continues to use the same starting players week-in, week-out. There's no excuse not to use all players available to him.

Darcy Blake is a fantastic talent and, considering McNaughton was holding his hamstring towards the end of yesterday's game, should get a game.

Games open up that little bit more when Craig Conway gets on the pitch, and until Malky decides on which position Liam Lawrence is best suited to (he's been a winger his whole career, not a crap holding midfielder), he should get a game.

Despite being young and inexperienced at this level, Kadeem Harris is available and the current line-up isn't working as it should. He should get a game.

Lee Naylor's another one available. I wasn't too impressed with him last season, but he's been brilliant in the few games he's played during Malky's reign -- like a new signing. He should get a game.

I'm not quite sure what's happened to Joe Ralls, but I know the lad has bags of potential. If he isn't injured, he should get a game.

Dekel Keinan should be here. He has the quality -- better than Gerrard, in my opinion -- and it's hard to think where we would have finished last season without him and, instead, Cardiff Blues reserves player Gabor Gyepes in the starting line-up next to Hudson. Should have had more games, but he'll no doubt do well at another Championship club next season.

The team aren't performing as well as they could simply because they're knackered, and continuing to use them won't get Cardiff City into the play-offs. Freshen it up, give a few of them a break, and allow them to come back in one or two games time and get us back in the running for the promised land as a force to be reckoned with.

Exactly, Malky is a moron for marginalising certain players and flat out ignoring squad rotation. Performances are suffering because they are physically drained and they know they'll play next week anway ( looking at McNaughton, Taylor, Cowie, Whittingham and Miller here )

Other than Conway I think playing any of them would be a backwards step.

It's a shame Malky hasn't given Keinan more of a look in. Not saying he'd be ahead of Hudson or Turner, but should be next in line after them. If you read his Twitter (apart from the hebrew bits!) it comes across he's a real pro with a good attitude.

Conway should definitely be starting games. Every time he comes on things start happening.
