FT: STOKE CITY 1 - 2 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[NYCBlue]

Bennett is the biggest weakness in the defence.

I have never seen a player more culpable for goals conceded than him.

That goal was down to him.

Threw a lazy leg at the ball when attempting to clear it, and missed.

Then the Stoke player waltzed past him as if he wasn’t there, to get the cross in.

He’s a terrible defender.

I don’t know how good Cunningham is at this level, but I’d like to see him get a run of games.

How many times have you seen goal? Bennett is beaten by the pace of the ball. It goes one way then another. I don't know what you expect him to do about that.

[Baloo]

Aimless hoofball so far.

[Cowbridge Blue]

Harry Wilson's not having much of a game.

Yes, he's following the play a lot and therefore narrowing and making more congested the middle of the park; schoolboy stuff - although it has to be said he's not a real winger.

We're losing the midfield and I'd expect changes with many of those in blue looking tired.

[the other bob wilson]

Bacuna was for a while.

Bacuna has had a very good forty five minutes apart from a mis control at the end, Mark Harris has done what he's in the side for and the rest of the outfield players look like it's one game too many for them.

[Tuerto]

Moore looks finished. Give him 10 minutes, if nothing changes then make the change.

[Dave Blue]

The commentators are aghast at the standard. Just goes to show what we’ve become used to.

Harris has been anonymous. The once or twice he’s managed to get to the ball he’s done nothing with it.

We are trying to out hoofball the one team who ate probably bigger than us in this division and it’s not working.

Changes needed to tactics and personnel 2nd half.

[Don Corleone]

Really poor first half - neither team has played well , though they have got on the ball once or twice on the edge of our area. We haven’t put 2 passes together all evening

[OurManFlint II]

Can’t find a stream here in Canada today.... appreciate any help

not sure if any of these work as im watching through the iplayer. not missed much to be fair

[Former Labour leader]

Guess we'll have to be grateful for 3 wins. This is pretty awful. I think we need Pack to give some control in midfield and Murphy or Whyte to add some pace up top. Harris is ok, showing what a bit of pace can do. Moore is being owned by their centre backs.

[J R Hartley]

Harry Wilson's not having much of a game.

It would be nice if one of our midfielders could get the ball to him.

[surge]

He’s been one of our best players in the last 2 games

Bennett, Nelson and Vaulks have all had good performances over past three games but all made mistakes in lead up to the goal. We look a very, very tired side.

I have to agree. We are playing hoofball and they are huge in centre of defence.

Nelsons header was poor headed it straight back to them instead of our of the danger zone.

[Hilts]

Need to change this.

Id take Harris and Vaulks off for Murphy and Pack.

Need to use our subs with Saturday in mind anyway.

Play the half of football in front of us first, Saturday’s another day.

[Rjk]

we miss Tomlin in games like this

[Hilts]

Yeah but its not working anyway. Should use the squad.

[Bobby Dandruff]

Is anyone else bored to tears?

Yawn.

[NYCBlue]

This 11 should never have started. They're knackered. Now they're going to be knackered or worse injured on Saturday too.

[J R Hartley]

Excellent covering by Bennett

[J R Hartley]

Lazy challenge

[cyril evans awaydays]

Is anyone else bored to tears?

Yawn.

You could barely keep your eyes open for a 3-0 win last week so no surprise you are nodding off

[J R Hartley]

Yes.. Come on lads.

[Hilts]

Great save. Now please make some feckin changes.
