The football up to the final third has been outstanding!!!!
Bonkers!
He doesn’t know what he’s doing. He took what Morison was doing and asked them to press more and now just lost.
Steve Morison was manager for 45 games. He got 16 wins, 8 draws and 21 defeats. He was a shit manager. Mick has a better record.
Just let that sink in. Mick McCarthy lost EIGHT games in a row at the end and has a better record than Morison. Young players had less opportunities under him too. When Morison got sacked we were basically bottom of every shots on target or shots taken in the division. We were about 4th in shots from outside the box though, because we couldn't create anything inside it. We had scored 7 goals this season when he got sacked. Seven. That's it. In 10 games, we'd scored seven times. He is without a doubt one of the worst managers we've ever had but that's OK cos the centre halves and Allsop passed the ball between themselves a few times.
You have to look a little bit beyond the base numbers I think.
The team that McCarthy took over in his first season had millions of pounds more player value and player wages at it's disposal - it should have been a lot better than it was.
However for some reason McCarthy kept dropping Harry Wilson - a genuine quality player at this level and instead was playing Leandro Bacuna.
Then into the next season - huge amount of cost cutting, McCarthy just gets worse and worse - the days of playing 5 centre backs were genuinely the strangest tactical thing I can recall from any cardiff manager - he had completely lost the plot.
When Morrison took over he also almost immediately lost our 2 best players from the first half of the season in Moore and Giles - take them out of McCarthy's teams and we would have been in even more trouble.
Then this season - even more cost cutting, and a whole new squad to try to gel.
Yes there were problems, specifically making chances and getting shots in the box, but I feel there's a chance we could have gelled eventually under Morison- now we will never know so it's a moot point.
Almost immediately? Hardly. In fact, Morison had those players in his side for two months.
It’s funny how positively some people are now reflecting on Morison’s record this season. After all, the side lost to Reading, Bristol City, Luton, Millwall and Huddersfield under his guidance, and failed to score in five of his ten matches.
I don’t think that tells any kind of story, MM was a good short term appointment and did well for us until the next season when it was horrendous. That losing 8 games in a row was also the worst attempt of football I’ve ever seen from any team. Put it this way I’m more positive that Hudson will keep us this season than I would have on us staying up if MM had stayed last season. Morison took over and kept us up pretty comfortably in the end, a very good turn around considering our form and how low moral was. The new season and a huge turn over of players and result severe mixed to say the least, some good performances and some very poor ones, but it was always going to take time. We won’t know how we would have done given time but my opinion is I had more faith in him than Hudson. I suppose it’s the old would Malky have kept us up in them Prem debate.
The fact that Hudson has "spoken to them behind the scenes" about Warnock speaks volumes.
Doesn't even have any confidence himself that he's the right man for the job
Maybe it says more about the way certain people at the club do business as opposed to how confident somebody is of doing the job.
I'd certainly question somebody who categorically said a certain man would not be our full time manager and then gave him the job full time a short while later.
No but could see the bigger picture, thought we looked like we could click and push up the table. I think Morison changed it around to much but I think eventually he would have found his starting 11 and we would have improved, just my opinion.
Under Hudson I see no direction what so ever, it’s alarming.
Morison was working with a new group of players and had Robinson for only 2.5 games. With such a large overhaul of the squad you'd expect things to have a rocky start but improve after a short while as the team get used to playing with each other and the new manager.
Points per game and goals per game under the 2 managers this season are almost identical, but I don't think we looked so clueless under Morison as we do under Hudson. Lacking in cutting edge certainly, but not clueless.
I didnt think Morison should have been sacked as this squad was his and he should have taken responsibility. But we were crap under him. The hope was wed improve.
The fact is he put together a poor unbalanced squad.
He would in my opinion be as bad as Hudson.
If Hudson keeps this squad up it will be a huge achievement. I think the transfer embargo has sealed our fate though.
I dont blame Hudson but dont come out with shit like we are outstanding up to the final 3rd. We are not we are really poor. Slow tedious passing which allows the opposition to regroup and get behind the ball and from there we are clueless. We are a soft touch as well and so easy to play against.
The puppet got a bit too big for his boots.
That seems clear.
The problem we have here is the puppet master knows very little about football, puppets or the oncoming train wreck they are heading for.
Sadly for most of us we can just start a new game on Football Manager. Cardiff City cannot.
