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

[Former Labour leader]

Very open game. I expect more goals. At both ends!

[fugsyphil]

Need to change Murphy for Tomlin. Murphy totally ineffective and we need a creative player to help Glatzel.

Setting up the goal was slightly effective

Got into a good position for an excellent team goal. Still can't control a ball if it's not on the deck, some poor layoffs, not done much otherwise.

Watching the game with Radio Wales commentary. Yes, it's about a minute ahead, but far better that than listening to the muppets on the internet. Nathan Blake saying that Glatzel has a long way to go. I'd agree. In fact, the only reason we would be starting next season with any of our current strikers in the starting XI is because there's no money to bring in anyone else. I think Harris might find better options elsewhere. The debate between Glatzel and Paterson is probably pointless as I don't think either are good enough going forward.

Must have been my eyes deceiving me when he's held up the balls that haven't gone to feet then.

Still. He gets the balls and can actually pass to a team mate. Something your mate struggles with.

What balls has he held up ?????

Every time it’s gone to him, it’s bounced back to Cowbridge Road

Glatzel's pass accuracy for the game is 53% according to whoscored.com. That's the lowest in the entire team (bar Smithies).

[blue lewj]

The City TV commentary is dire.

The amount of times they've messed up words in simple sentences.

[Maurice Swan]

big save from smithies....

[WJ99mobile]

Nelson having one of his worst games for us

[Maurice Swan]

Get Murphy and Hoilett off.....

[Joe Gillis]

Hang on, i didnt know Josh Murphy was playing?

[StraightOuttaCanton]

2nd best today... we don’t keep it as tight when Paterson isn’t on the pitch... him and NML are more effective tracking back and closing down space

[MacAdder]

Going 2-1 up flattered us.

Game is too open for us, we simply haven't got the personnel to play that way.
They are killing us in midfield and Murphy doesnt look fit enough.

With the defence looking like they have never played together before, I'm not sure where we go from here.
Back to boring basics methinks.

[valleys caveman]
