Bennett dropped again :facepalm: Morrison and Bamba must be undroppable with the mistakes they make
Feel free to call me out on this if I'm wrong, but isn't Bennett the one who has lost his man for both the Spurs, and Leicester goals against us?
I know fek all but looks a more balanced line-up to me. Two natural widemen and Camarasa inside where he can hopefully pull the strings more.
Back to a 4-3-3 it looks to me.
Really like the look of the three behind Paterson. Bennett unlucky to be dropped, also we really need to play a proper right back and get Bruno in the middle, his distribution is too poor to play full back
C'mon you Blooooobirds - Missing my first home game of the season today :cry:
Lets hope we get another Home WIN :ayatollah::ayatollah:
****ing rubbish
Great ball in. Shocking defending. Again.
Still, there's always the long throw right?
FFS Bamba :furious:
Brighton looked well drilled and tight. We gave them an easy one. If there wasn't still 80 mins left to change things I'd be furious now.
We can't even keep hold of the Pissing ball - FFS we look at 6's and 7's
Bamba nowhere near good enough for this level
Bamba at fault for the goal. Again.
Right that’ll do! Let’s wake up a bit now!
GET IN CALLUM
Great work from Kadeem!
Shocking challenge, Cardiff players understandably angry
60 minutes versus 10 men. Come on City!
Advantage City. What a terrible challenge that was. It reminded me of Bogle at Bristol City (I believe).
FFS missed it ....... what happened?
I see they've had a player sent off
