*~*~* Cardiff v Sunderland match thread *~*~*

[Arfa Sleep]

Styles really is shit. Shows how bad our scouts must be tracking him for 3 years.

 

[Spartan]

Would be a good squad player imo nowt flash but steady...

Needs championship minutes

 

[Grumpy Old Man]

I said they’re playing poorly. As in today they are playing poorly.

We're playing well. Sometimes as team is only as good as you let them be.

 

[Billericay Dichio]

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

Tim called....

 

[Spartan]

Cardiff are poor but we look much better with a more settled back four, midfield shape is solid and nice to see players getting around Jobe up top.

Cardiff are above us and were in decent form

 

[Gloucester]

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

If Rigg scored the Jobe chance would not have arisen as it came later.

 

[McGregor]

He's done alright, some of his decision making and passes have been poor but overall very handy.

Aye that's fair. Nobody has played shite, shite passing could be said or a few of our players first half but it happens.

 

[SuperKevsLeftBoot]

Literally one post styles very tidy.. next post styles is shit.
This forum lol

Clueless take.

Haway mate

I love a little lift, decent performance so far. We all know playoffs are long gone and if we get 3 points that should be enough to stay up. I'm just enjoying the feel good factor of us winning by 2 goals. When was the last time?

 

[Sir dave]

We are 2- nil up I don’t care about the performance it’s all about the result. Come on the lads second half

 

[I Told You I Was Ill]

Great to see a better performance with more cutting edge. Bellingham clearly the best striker in the squad - holds it up well, runs the channels and gets in the box. Forget about Burstow and Hemir, they’re miles off his level.

But Ba is miles off the pace again - continual poor execution of passes/shots when in on goal or in the attacking third. No awareness of runs around him and team mate availability. I’m all for giving younguns a chance, but they have to play well enough to stay in the side. He’s had a v poor season and shouldn’t be in the team until his level improves (if it ever does).

 

[Millhouse]

A win would do nicely as fuck here.

Then I’d enjoy the first season in god knows not worrying about going up/down.

 

[Arfa Sleep]

If Rigg scored the Jobe chance would not have arisen as it came later.

Aye he should have squared it really.

 

[wrighty]

Would be a good squad player imo nowt flash but steady...

He’s done alright so far.

 

[Alfa]

Bellingham with a cracking performance up front. Just keep him there now please.

He’s the best striker we’ve got and he’s not even a striker.

Mind you Doris the tea lady would be an improvement on Hemir and Burstow

 

[admwil]

Cardiff are above us and were in decent form

Not a massive achievement. The reason they are above us is down to us not them. They’ve looked poor today.

 

[Roadhouse]

Started to play some canny stuff once we got some confidence.

 

[barts45]

Low, none existant for a lot

Surprising

 

[Fireball07]

Have you seen our performances lately?

We've controlled this game regardless of how poor Cardiff have been. We didn't register a single shot on target against QPR.

Let's not forget, Cardiff are above us in the league

Yeah, in comparison with our recent performances, this is incredibly positive regardless of how poor Cardiff have been (and they have been poor).
