A dreadful inept performance

Re: A dreadful inept performance

Watching Cardiff at the moment is such a chore. No entertainment value at all. The crowds are dropping off. There were probably about 15000 there tonight: And I don't blame those for not going

Re: A dreadful inept performance

Just seen the goal again, as if I didn’t think it was bad enough at the time. A full back not worthy of the description lets him run into the box. The joke of a keeper’s inept attempt to, well I don’t know what he was trying to do. Then Goutas, a reliable defender, just runs passed the ball.

As for Bulut, it’s becoming like the tale of the Emperor’s clothes. He won’t think of playing some football until we are losing and then it’s as if they’ve never met before.

Shocking ref but no excuses. We beat ourselves.

Re: A dreadful inept performance

I think the manager is finding out about the championship and it may eat him up.

I am all for philosophy, but some days you need to change your game plan to suit your players and the situation. Bulut has suddenly mistaken Mark McGuiness for John Stones and decided our best way to score a goal 100 yard up field is to continually roll the ball out to him from the keeper......
There was space over both full backs heads, but no way are we going to do anything so uncultured as play a little 9 iron over the full backs head to turn them and allow us to press them, no wait for Macca to walk the ball pass the half way line then a defence splitting pass to our statue forward line.

We have a paper-thin squad. And we're still in the top 10. He's already massively improved the squad with players he brought in on frees. If we're still in 10th at the end of the season, I think that will be a huge success.

The most sensible reply to the OP to date ^^^

Just top half of the table would still be a good season, even if we were to have a decent transfer window.

We have been over-acheving with a squad lacking in depth and quality.

Need to be realistic.

Edit: fingers crossed NG isn't missing for long🤞

What's Bulut talking about there?

Re: A dreadful inept performance

A dreadful performance really

Bulut needs to return our on loan keeper or not play him again he's just not up to the job

It seems to have made the defenders nervous

Colwill made himself available and clearly had the quality to open up sides but he's very isolated......I really don't know what the plan is for this guy surely he needs a good run in the team but will he produce the goods ?

The forward line we have just isn't good enough , these players should be throwing themselves into these games but they sometimes look as though they have been out all night on the beers

I blame Bulut for sticking with the keeper he's got to change things there but in general shipping out the has beens and not good enoughs and bringing in his own faces will still leave us with a competitive side at this level

I think a mid table finish will be a bit of a let down after a good first half to the season but we need to keep our expectations in a sensible place

It's highly unlikely we will trouble the play off spots but people saying even when we have won its been lucky or a poor performance etc etc are talking nonsense

Not a clue, but he’s clearly another City manager who doesn’t think any of it is his fault. This doesn’t mean that I don’t think he’s done a good job, but it’s a fact that we’ve got worse over the past six weeks and he’s created a problem with the goalkeeping which was not necessary.

I was wondering the same.

Very cryptic……

Runarsson’s complete lack of presence for their goal is so alarming. It looks like one of the ball boys has been asked to play in goal :-o

Re: A dreadful inept performance

2 huge concerns with Bulut. He seemed to be saying that he was happy with the first half. In what world was that a good half? Secondly this keeper selection issue. If Bulut keeps putting him in the side he’s going to risk his own job.

Bulut needs two transfer windows to clear out the deadwood and create his own team.
We have some absolute dross masquerading as professional footballers on our books
Talentless and/or can’t be arsed
We have three loan players that should be sent back to their parent club, at least two who should be sent out on loan, and a couple who are so far off the pace that I doubt any other Championship clubs would touch them with a barge pole

Roll on January for the return of Ramsey and some new signings

Ruddy’s kit never even had a stain on it - says it all.

He's got a stainproof kit to be fair

Diving right save to Goutas header was quite good, it looked right in the corner.
