Re: time for 3-5-2?

I'd like us to play 4-2-4 Colwill as the second striker who's allowed to roam, play fast decisive football. Attack Attack Attack!

Woah, steady on! This is Cardiff City we're talking about, we just don't do those kinds of things.

Totally disagree with this, I don't think O Dowda's had a good game since he's come back from injury tbh

Indeed. O’Dowda often looks the part, but in truth there is very rarely any end product from him. It’s a mystery to me why so many City fans seem to rate him so highly. He’s an average Championship player on a good day, and his good days are infrequent.

I agree he is an average championship player who started in a squad of L1 players, so he looked a level up.

He isn't a left back, probably a wing back with three centre halves, but Bulut would make that a back 5 !!

I think Willock set his stall out for his tenure here, he ain't doing any of that tracking back stuff, nor is he busting a gut to get on the back post on a break. So if he starts it needs to be a genuine defender behind him.

O'Dowda didn't get a look in today against their right back. When he does get the chance to cross he never gets the ball past the 1st defender..

O’Dowda has lost any pace or ability to beat a right back on his own since coming back from injury

O’Dowda and NG are better suited at wing back….imo, both are suspect ‘defending’.

We could play3-2-1 with Ted Rogers as manager, it still wouldn't make a difference.
