I believe you did.
You said...He isn't able to jump? Poor love. On his wages most of us would give it a go.
So I took the inference that salary relates to willingness to jump.
I'm sure you'll come back with something but frankly I'm too tired and half cut (dry January over) so nos da.
Zohore is poor in the air and, with him approaching his mid twenties, I don't see him improving much in that department, if at all.
However, I often think that the importance of a striker's aerial ability is over estimated by Cardiff fans more than at other clubs. During the first year of Neil Warnock's time here, we played to Zohore's strengths and we all saw the results in his play. If Neil Warnock really does believe what he said about Zohore yesterday, then he must know as well that the way we have used him in the last fifteen matches does not play to his strengths. Whether you change the way you play just to accommodate a striker who is as inconsistent and moody as Zohore has been overall during his time with us is arguable, but we, surely, need to play more controlled football than we had been doing before Tuesday anyway.
Fans will be on his back from the minute he comes on again so I don't hold much hope for him here. If only he ran round pointlessly like Danny Ward
It's because the manager wants it that way-he's to scared to take teams on at the right times. We've actually played better when we've pressed a bit higher-Arsenal x2 Leicester away, Wolves at home and Fulham at home. When we decide to play higher up the pitch we're forced into playing. Warnock thinks that knocking the ball out to wingers with absolutely no support and hoping for knock downs and second balls through launching it is a viable option-it isn't at this level.
Today I would go with
Etheridge
Bacuna Manga Bamba Bennett
Ralls Gunnar
Reid Camarasa Niasse
Zohore
Keep the ball on the floor !
But I don’t think Neil Warnock will pick this team ?
Oh , And I agree , whatever has been holding Zohore back , it’s now his opportunity to shine!
I think Zohore is our best striker by some distance. But, and it’s a big but, he’s struggled for form and confidence. I think a clear run of injuries and some game time might surprise a few people at just how good he can be at this level.
I think Niasse and Reid showed enough at Arsenal to deserve to start today, hopefully we'll see Zohore at some point though
Paterson surely can't start again today? He needs a rest
Great signs. That effort in the dying minutes was classic Ken
Thought he meandered his way through the last 20 at Arsenal without really breaking a sweat.
Today was the opposite. Maybe it was the occasion and having watched everyonelse put in a huge shift but fair play he really put himself about that last 15 minutes.
Turned them a couple of times and nearly got a goal.
Well done Ken.
I knew he'd perform just after he came on and actually won a header - ok it was against Clubs I think and it went straight into touch but it showed he was on it. if we could only get him to be 'on it' for the rest of the season I think we could just about scrape it.
