to play 3 up top 1 being Dave 2 as a wide attacker ( like Barnes )

we are now 17th in the league on goals scored. Still in a good position for play offs but we do have to score more to get there. we do not play 1 up front we play 3 unfortunately none of the 3 attackers are scoring enough at the moment. same goes for midfield bar crofts Real Madrid, Barcelona...

currently conceded the third least goals but only 17 th on goals scored would be surprised if the team with the 17 th most goals scored can get promotion.

testing for young jake and Rohan 2 games so soon on 2 pudding pitches if Dave Orlandi kemy not trusted to start in centre it seems a bridcutt / crofts replacement is priority this week

Ryan Giggs solved his hamstring problems in 2 ways 1 yoga 2 he said he NEVER went flat out again Giggs had many other qualities than his youthful pace does Buckley?

Can not see Oscar of Barcelona tradition reverting to a 4 4 2 With the absence of crofts 4 2 3 1 could be a pragmatic comprise. But Oscar in interviews talks of playing one way so I cannot see that happening either. With so many clubs only playing one striker players must realize that...

well that depends if you mean an alternative to what we have or an alternative addition. still think we need to replace Barnes more than Conway a goal threat from wide in a 433 more than a provider although hopefully both. when some have caught up with the skill set required for the forward...

playing 4 3 3 you need goals and assists from wide attackers i think Buckley has more goal threat than Lua Lua and Conway But may never recover full pace with chronic hamstring problems and pace is his main attribute Lack of goals from wide attackers has been the biggest weakness this season and...

excellent ideas! Do not think foreign quota policy would be legal within EU common labour market. An alternative is to phase in a positive quota for players coming through clubs own academy.

viewing a stream thought we were unlucky to lose played some nice stuff at times same old championship problem lack of quality in the final third

draw is good today

with no Barnes Buckley and Lua Lua have to start with either march or Orlandi preferably both in a 4 2 3 1 with Lopez ,Augestien or JFC as the other attacking midfielder a midfield of Ince Andrews and bridcutt would sit far too deep and just invite pressure.

Whilst Orlandi does not provide the defensive cover of crofts he can certainly play as the most attacking member of a 3 man midfield or as part of a 3 in a 4 2 3 1 it is a bit like the debate whether Ince can be a replacement for bridcutt obviously physically very different and different...

certainly can do a job. but Cardiff have it right not as good as noone

I would settle for that. But on form Lua Lua clearly ahead of Buckley

surely we wouldn't offer Hoskins another deal? Even if we stay in the championship I think we will have a very different squad. Let's hope we have more luck(better judgement?) regarding injuries.

crofts has had a great season runs up and down all game long It will be harder to play only one defensive midfielder without him. but with 2 players behind Orlandi or Augestien can be just as important.

certainly big candidate for player of the season. time for Orlandi or Agustien to step up. both have the ability and with Ince and Andrews behind them should have the freedom to play

what will CMS role be ?we can rule out starting 442 so its cover or sub for ulloa or throwing on another striker late on searching for a goal or playing in a wide striking position ala theo Walcott On consideration I think his best role may be subbing ulloa if we are already up and looking...

Must admit I have been worried with the possible sales of Bridcutt and Barnes . Much reassured now Ince has signed an extension. Now we have not only the money from the sale of Barnes with half a season left on his contract But also money from the bridcutt sale with an exciting prospect to take...
