Well done Siopis.
2-0

Re: Republic of Ireland v Siopis

Siopis had a good game and played the full 90'.

He's better than what we've seen of him in a Cardiff shirt.

Far more relaxed and happy no doubt

He plays deep for Greece. He gets about far more than Ralls. He's quicker than Ralls and with Robertson's passing we don't need Ralls passing as much. So, for me, Siopis must start on Saturday.

Wonder when Haaland was last in a team that was beaten 5-1 like Norway were by Austria last night?

Seems like the answer is never in his professional career according to Soccerbase - there’s been a few 0-4s and a 2-5, but no 1-5s until last night.

He is a decent player who bizarrely gets a load of unnecessary criticism from our fans.

Remind me how many international players we have playing at this level again? :-/

City currently have 15 full internationals on the books, although some of them aren't regulars and others haven't represented their countries for some time.

Marvellous isn't it?

Beaten 5-1 in a team of generally poor players. Didn’t get a shot on target. Haaland is absolute shite

Is that the message you thought I was trying to get over? More like, it shows what a good player he is as he isn’t in the habit of playing in teams likely to lose 5-1.

No not you at all. I'm getting at the stick Siopis gets, regularly singled out for being poor in a badly managed, poorly set up team
