FT: CARDIFF CITY 2 - 3 BLACKBURN ROVERS. Match thread

[dembethewarrior]

Why do people keep on saying “start without Patts” ????

He’s not the greatest, anyone can see that, BUT the 3 (THREE), games we’ve won, since the restart, we’ve had a plan in operation.

The one game we abandoned this plan, was the worst game of the season , not just since the comeback.

Yes, Robert went off injured, BUT, JUST BUT, maybe he was trying to hard to impress, whereas when he comes on as sub, the physical side of the game, has been sorted out by Patts.

Everyone wants to see skilful players, BUT, if you’ve got a winning formula, why change it . WE DID AND ONLY DREW, AGAINST LOWLY CHARLTON

LEAVE WELL ALONE

Any defender that can't be physical for 90 minutes shouldn't play.

Are you saying Pato falling over continuously in his 70 uncreative minutes does that much of a job on defenders they can't barge a less physical Glatzel out of the game for 20 minutes?

Let's be honest. We have Ward and Glatzel, 2 ACTUAL strikers. Both can score and both offer movement. Arguably both so far seem better off the bench too, but wouldn't you rather risk playing an actual striker who may also find himself in an actual goal scoring position to actually score a goal in the first 70 minutes? What if we use Paterson who doesn't score or create, then the 20 minutes we allow out actual proper real as in played there all their lives strikers they don't manage to score? Through sheer defensive brilliance or individual brilliance by their keeper?

Strikers need to be a goal threat. End of.

There’s no “arguably” about it, it’s a fact, “both are better off the bench”

If you READ what I’m saying, “I’m saying it’s working for us at the moment, so don’t change a winning formula” .

I’m NOT saying I love it, but it’s working at the moment. Patts IS NOT A STRIKER, fact.

Happy now
