I havnt blamed him at all
I think it was a mistake for him to be on the pitch as he isnt match fit
Turnbull is a better player and fit
If I was blaming ralls for our defeat Wednesday night I would have said something like it was ralls fault we lost last night ......or he's shit .....there's plenty of that on other websites
Picking an unfit ralls didn't help but colwill , Tanner, Robinson and NG all looked off form so part of a jigsaw really
I desperately hope this explains it to you because I won't be doing it again even if you offer me several thousand quid
Must have done wonders for Turnballs confidence, bet Reindorf is baffled too….
We can't keep on blaming Ralls when Colwell, Tanner and Robinson have poor games.
We got Robinson for less than 2 mill in his prime, he is a limited championship general purpose forward. He runs a lot without ever affecting the chase. it's running like an enthusiastic corgi, but no idea what to do when he reaches his prey, so he stalls. Tanner is a L2 forward who'll end up a center forward, he has a burst of pace and a decent hard shot other than that he is very limited.
Then the prodigal son, Rubin. He is not a "10", he is an "8" who doesn't like or is incapable of the workload of a Joe Ralls. You don't have to be Terry Yorath anymore, steal the ball and a few block tackles. All his best work is deeper, he is a passer.
Robertson didn't have a great game, but I guess that was Ralls fault as well.
424 with an L1 attack is plain crazy to me. Ralls off and dropping Rubin into his slot with Reindorf at CF should have been the call, but the like for like subs were probably Ralls fault as well.
If ralls was being blamed then I would agree with you but he isn't
I think Robinson is a very useful utility forward and more than capable of scoring 20 goals a season in this division
But if he isn't getting many chances , is off form and the same goes for colwill , Tanner and Robertson......then we are going to struggle
That laughable suggestion further demonstrates how little you know or understand about football.
Callum Robinsons highest goal tally in a season was 10 back in 2016/17. Thats the only season in which hes ever reached double figures. He is 30 in February. He is not a 20 goals a season striker, never has been and never will be. Not even close.
Poor bugger I feel sorry for him, he is a cracking bloke and probably too honest for his own good.
He's really starting to feel the pressure, and it's affecting his decision-making, as he feels he has to try and win every game. They need to help him out, even if it's letting him know what they expect, what they plan to do, and a likely timeline.
Blimey not like you to have a go at one of our staff or players 🤔
He could definitely get 20 goals a season if he had a target man providing him with ammunition and we were performing better as a team
He's more than capable of scoring 20 goals in a championship side unlike Kanga and Meite who are not this at this level
I think they both try but that's not the point
Robinson can score goals and he's playing his part this season
Meite has 17 in a single Championship season, and was on 12 from 25 games before he got injured at Reading.
Hard to believe an injury could affect him so much . He should be on fire banging the goals in regularly.
reading fans were saying that he seemed to be over his injury before he left them, they didn't think he'd lost his pace or anything like that. perhaps we've found some new and unusual way of ruining him
I'm not having a go, you docile twat. I like Robinson. I'm merely pointing out the reality of the situation. 29 year-old Callum Robinson is not a 20-goal a season striker, never has been and never will be. Only a fantasist with a poor knowledge of the player and football in general would believe otherwise.
His league stats for the last five years:
2020/21 - 5 goals
2021/22 - 7 goals
2022/23 - 5 goals
2023/24 - 1 goal
2024/25 - 5 goals
23 goals in total. And you reckon City could get 20 goals out of him in a single season? Righto...
I bet we have defenders who score more, how many has goutas got?
I think that's a fair summary
He's been injured
He's got 5 this season before Xmas
He could easily ram in another 15
He's the best chance we have you acrylic ponce
There we have it, ladies and gentlemen. There may be absolutely nothing in the way of facts or figures to suggest 29 year-old forward Callum Robinson is a potential 20-goal a season Championship striker, but Fudge Slacker has decided it is so. Therefore, under CCMBs volume of pointless posts rule, it has become so.
Well we have until the end of the season to see if he gets anywhere near that target
Is 19 OK?
Or is only 20 the measuring stick ?
It's nor like you are pedantic or anal like your hairdressing mate Eric so best to clear things up first
Cheers
Some basic observations would tell anyone that Robinson is far from a natural goal scorer even if he is the best we have.
Seems there was more of Riza's post QPR interview than the club website showed originally - pretty sure this is from Wednesday, not Thursday or Friday. One thing I take from this video is that the rumours that he and bulut didn't get on had some substance to them.
https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/vide...a-cc2bf408ded3
I take from that he's as frustrated as we are and doing his best
He certainly made the right decision to take Kanga out of the squad till he's offering something but I was confused that he had ralls in who wasnt fit and didn't give Riendorf a chance
Its not Rizas fault he is in this position. That fault lies solely with those running the club.
Weds was a really bad day. A relegation performance and result.
If wed scored early I reckon we'd have won comfortably but we didn't and weren't good enough to break QPR down.
I think he should have changed system with 30 mins to go and gone 3 at the back and taken Chambers off. Why he took Goutas off a threat in the box and left Chambers on I dont know.
Reindorf should have been used as well.
I dont think Tanner should have been subbed even though he wasn't having the best of games.
I think Daaland should have come on as well as we were forcing set pieces but had almost zero threat with the subbing of Goutas.
I hope we've been working on set plays because we are utterly useless at the moment at them.
Goutas/Daaland or maybe Fish to start today hopefully.
He's probably the best finisher we have which says a lot about the rest.
