Lost last 3 on the bounce. Lost 6 of the last 7 games, with only a win at Watford in the middle. Hopefully we can get at least a point out of this one. Next team selection should be interesting and generally the starting 11 we should stick with.

I hate reading stuff like the OP. It should make you feel like a shark who’s got the scent of blood in the water but you just know what we are. It’s awful.

Wilmot shouldn’t be playing for us again if we can make it so. He makes is so much worse. A back 3 for this club is just about the worst tactical thing in the world. |

Iversen
Wilmot
McNally
Rose
Tchamadeu
Burger
Baker
Manhoef
Junho
Ennis
Wesley
We need to stick with 3 CBs to make up for the individual incompetence at the back. Need more of a threat up-front though. I'd bring Big Wes in to partner Ennis and give us a chance of getting the ball to stick up-front.

I havent been a fan of 3 at the back but weirdly it worked for the couple of games Gallagher was in charge and we've looked tighter in the last 2 It also helps our wingbacks in Gooch and junior who like t get upfield a bit As for Wilmot, well we aren't spoilt for choice unfortunately |

It's not the formation I'd pick in an ideal world, but it's the best chance we've got of keeping a clean sheet with the shit players we have. We know we're not going to score more than 1 goal if we're lucky, so staying solid is the best hope we've got of coming away with something. |

Next team selection should be interesting and generally the starting 11 we should stick with. We'll huff and puff, have one shot on target and Cardiff will score from a corner to win 1-0. SS will say there's plenty of points left to play for. |

Cardiff play midweek home to Blackburn hopefully they pick up a few knocks.
Looking for anything that might just give us some hope. I just want this awful season to be over & we survive.

The bus is ready for its journey 🤣 I washed it before Blackburn. I onner doing it again...! Selection influencing issues ahead 1 Medical team not clear if players can train and play games 2 Training ground hissy fits 3 Jimmy choo handbag sale runs out of stock 4 Liverpool Sunday league team tries out a new formation of 1 10 0 revolutionising our thinking 5 National lottery balls for the Friday pick and mix delayed by a postal strike 6 Ricky decides we don’t want players with a pulse 7 Cardiff beat Blackburn on Tuesday giving them a huge advantage as they gave had more practice m and we decide to recruit 5 free agents from overseas all under 5 feet 3 and suffering long term injuries on the basis of all the clear unknowns I think the only safe prediction is we won’t score and it won’t be the same team we have fielded in any other game .

Whatever we do tactically, nothing is ideal because the players are so fucking bad. Your solution would be to bring useless, bone idle tossers like Mmaee, Campbell and Vidigal back, so you clearly haven't got any answers either. |

It looked like 3 of Hoever, Wilmot and Rose with Gooch and Thompson further up field In fairness half the team don't seem to know what position they are playing so either of us could be right but I think it was a 3-4-2-1 |

We know we're not going to score more than 1 goal if we're lucky, so staying solid is the best hope we've got of coming away with something. That’s the issue really, if we’re going to play a 433 or 4231 then how can we offer some protection to the CB’s that clearly need it whilst still offering enough in an attacking sense and with Stevens injured we haven’t got a proper left back. Also whilst we’ve got Manhoef to play on the right just who the hell do we play out on the left? Any one of Campbell, Vidigal or Haks out on the left would be shit. Bae can do a job but should be playing centrally. The 433 hasn’t worked with Burger, Bae, and Cundle because we’re lightweight and get overrun easily. Replacing one of them for Baker wouldn’t work for the same reasons. You can throw in Laurent who is slightly better defensively but then is it enough in terms of going forward? It’s just a shitshow in terms of recruitment and there isn’t really one truly ideal formation for the players we’ve got. |

Do they score many own goals?
Because that's the only way we'll get a sniff. I honestly am staggered at just how shit we are.

But by then Hoever has done his regular cock up and cost the only goal so Cov could defend and play on the break. Could and should have been 3-0 in a way... but can't help think if the team that finished had started we would have nicked a draw or maybe an undeserved win. We are not dead yet but next 2 games are vital. |

Laurent is terrible, just cannot believe Schumacher gave him the armband for Burger, everything he got the ball it was a poor touch then slowing things down. |
