[Arfa Sleep]

No he didn’t

Well, when you put it like that...

 

[SAFC11]

Ba still baffles me mind. Our players say he’s the most skilful/talented in the team but he never looks to take people on and his first thought seems to always be the safe option. Not sure if it’s confidence or what but still never seen anything from him that sparks any excitement.

He has all the components but seems to struggle to put them together.granted I don't think this season is fair to judge a few of the young lads with the mess it's been. Need the next hire to be someone who can get the mental side of things sorted for the players. They all have talent, but seems to to go missing on the pitch, whether that is down to confidence or instruction who knows

 

[McGregor]

All played well..Styles got done the first few mins and I thought that was going to set the tone but he's settled fairly canny

 

[Ale taster]

Excellent first half.
Bit more composure from Rigg and it could have been 3.

 

[TartanMackem]

Cardiff have been f***ing rancid this half, but it’s still nice to see us knocking the ball around with a bit of confidence and flair again.

We’ve missed that in the last few months.

 

[payne]

Could easily have been 10-12 as well

Yeah he's definitely had a couple chalked off for offside which weren't.

 

[Madmartigan]

Very very happy with that. Steady performance. Same again 2nd half .

 

[hallix]

Right...... Ba off please Doddsy........Mundle on. Good half of football for a change.

 

[ajthemackem]

Tin hat on, but Styles is a very tidy player.

 

[look out piano]

HT 0-2 Well played Lads !

Whoop Whoop

 

[DonaldDownTheWing]

Best half of football since god knows when. Midfield looks much better.

 

[Sarcoid Kid]

Notable first half mention for Ekwah, he's pressed, made good runs, and played some lovely passes. Let's hope he keeps it up 2nd half.

 

[Whistle73]

Another half to go

We won't lose from this position. Cardiff are shot to bits.

 

[MarcoG]

Been by far the better team after the first ten minutes but we're not exactly playing amazingly well, some of the passing is slack as owt.

Ekwah's been excellent, Aouchiche, Rigg, Ballard and Bellingham all good.

 

[YorkMackem]

Jobe making all the difference. Gut wrenching effort and strength and always gives is a focal point when played up front.

Maybe we should consider converting him to a full-time striker?

 

[DH1]

High or low?

Low, none existant for a lot

 

[KGC83]

Really pleased with that. Much better performance.

The 3 in midfield Neil, ekwah and Rigg look much better.

 

[Baz]

Right...... Ba off please Doddsy........Mundle on. Good half of football for a change.

Ba has had a really good game. Defended really well too.

 

[Zidane]

Dont think we were anything special really but Cardiff are rubbish thankfully

 

[Skylon]

That linesman looked a bit shite mind.Offside-wise
