absolutely loves Cardiff City and has worked his arse off to get fit and ready to help in the promotion run-in. It wasn't his fault Warnock put him in before he was fully fit but he didn't shy away from it.
Too bad the haters don't see it.
Gunnar was poor when he first came back - not surprisingly!
I think also, with him not wanting to extend his contract a few people mistakenly thought he wasn't trying.
His superb MOM performance last night certainly killed off any of those sort of assumptions.
I think also he is the only regular we have left from the last promotion winning side.
Anyway good to see you back in here Serpico and don't worry, Gunnar is still a big favourite for most of us here
Also his birthday today!
I think sky made Morrison MOM
Gunnarsson came back from injury straight into 2 of our toughest games of the season, which we lost by the odd goal and with a little bit of luck, could have got a result in both.
Some of the stuff posted about him on here is embarrassing, fans who have no idea slagging him off on message boards
I genuinely don't think it was unfair.
We replaced a midfielder in a 3 that worked well together, all had their roles, did them well, we're going for 9 wins on the bounce, and in return got a not 100 percent player who upset the balance of the team.
Him and grujic basically got in one another's way. The football we play is more direct now as a result.
People point out a couple of good passes, fair enough, but how many times has he had time to hold the ball and pick out a pass just to hack at it aimlessly up the pitch?
He played well yesterday, in the sense he was everywhere and put in a lot of effort.
Ralls made him look better because they know eachothers game.
With Ralls back I don't actually mind having gunnar in the team, is like to see Grujic in for Bryson Tuesday, and if it isn't working throw the immense Patterson on.
Gotta say, we've got great options in midfield. Gunnar hitting form at this stage could get us over the line.
I must admit I was very cynical towards him. I mistakenly thought he was playing the injury up, looking towards the WC and a move.
I'm glad I was wrong.
