What the hell has happened to him?
When he first joined he looked exactly like the midfielder we needed, crunching tackles, fast, busy, never giving possession away, in his first 5 or 6 games I thought he could play premier league football. Now he would struggle with non league, one pass tonight straight out to touch was ridiculous and he seems so far off the pace.
I know players have dips and lose form but he’s really gone from one extreme to another in a short space of time and it’s quite startling, there must be a reason behind it?
To be fair, I thought he looked back to his old self for about 5 minutes when he came on, then reverted to recent form.
A lot of our players haven’t really hit any sort of outstanding form all season, the likes of Wintle, Etete, Meite, Bowler, Ugbo , Collins etc have had some slightly better or slightly poorer games to their usual level but the contrast in form with Siopsis has been dramatic . I suppose the one other player whose form has dramatically changed is Ollie Tanner though he only hit top form for a very brief time earlier this season whereas Siopsis was excellent for a number of games before his form dropped off a cliff!
I also thought he was very good for a bit when he came on yesterday, for 5 mins or so with Ramsey you could see the embers of the side we were at the very start of the season. He was flying around and nicking the ball off players much bigger than him.
Turned it off and went to bed after 85 mins, so don’t think I’ve seen the incident with the pass but that’s not ever been his game.
His form from the start of the season really has dropped. I would say he has looked more like himself the last two games but it’s still not near the standards he set at the start of the season.
Reminds me of a certain Gary Medel. He downed tools after a few decent performances, yet still got given god like status by the fans just because he ran about a lot.
I thought for the first 25 minutes against Preston he looked excellent.
Disappeared after they scored
Confidence player I guess.
Speaking of the guy called Siopis
And in respect of a decent synopsis:
Of his recent poor dribbling
He said to his sibling
I think it's due to my op, sis.
He is always busy about the field, just feel he lacks that final killer pass, that the likes of Kav, Mcphail could deliver
how about a killer tackle for once? yknow one where he doesnt end up on his arse watching the play go on or chasing his own tail looking for where the ball went to some benny hill music?
face it..shit in all areas. Except the one that matters most to people on this forum...how many blades of grass did he cover??
I like Siopsis but looks like he’s ran out of gas. Wonder if the championship is a level above fitness wise where he came from.
It was a no brainer at the start of the season as could fill that DM role on his own. Not any longer.
What happened to him has happened to a lot of players that come to us. It's the curse of Cardiff city. Every promising player turns to shit regardless of what manager we have. We're cursed i tell you, CURSED!
It's winter. He don't like the cold. He will come good again when it starts getting warmer and sunny
