    Re: Pack Leaving

    The most damming thing about this season is the emergence of Pack to look half useful. I wish him the best of luck.

      Good luck to him. He had his moments for us.

        Re: Pack Leaving

        In his farewell message, Pack apparently thanked all the managers he’s worked under at Cardiff. That’s four of them in three years, which gives an indication of how well things have gone since the last Premier League relegation.

          Is that all? Watford have had more than us AND managed promotion!

              He'd be in good company then! Who'd have thought?

                Always saw him as a defensive midfielder who needed more creative players in front of him. Because for the majority of his time here he didn't have those players, I think he felt obliged to venture forward himself thus exposing his weaknesses.
                Good player in the right team, but I think he's another player we never got the best out of.

                  Yeah I always thought that he was quite a gifted footballer technically and amazed (or maybe not ) that we never got the best from him.

                    Good luck to him. Problems arise with players like Pack when they're asked to do things that they quite clearly can't, and probably never have. I'm not bigging him up too much, but he did have some ability, a decent touch and a bit of vision. Those were not the qualities prioritised by our managers during Pack's time at the club. Pack plays across the line, a pivot between defence and attack. What chance did he really have?

                        But also you could see his speed of thought was quicker than his ability to deliver the outcome. Too often his passes got telegraphed or he got caught in possession trying to deliver. As you and others said needed players and manager on a different wavelength but you do wonder whether players like Pack who take a ball under control, take a touch and look up have had their day compared with those encouraged to move the ball quickly.

                          Good player, experienced but we just have waaay too many identical midfielders and ralls & vaulks have a bit more about them
