No dramah with this one I hope
He's too soft to play centre back, I feel.
I really hope we sign Panzo and Giles, too. if they're options. if we're going to stick with this bloody formation, we need pace and a left footed centre half as an absolute minimum. Morison clearly doesn't rate Sang, either. He's not selected him in some squads while putting Patten etc on the bench over him, which is a bit odd if you ask me. Not a reflection on Patten, either.
I think he is better there than Ng. At least he offers something going forward. Ng offers absolutely nothing in attack. We can work on the defensive side of Sangs game, but it’s not like he’s playing full back anyway. Give me a good attacking wing back over a good defensive wing back any day. We’ve got enough defensive players in the team.
Looks well balanced, great first touch, quick:

We are delighted to announce that Cody Drameh has joined Cardiff City on a loan deal from Leeds United for the remainder of the 2021/22 campaign, subject to international clearance.
20-year-old Cody has featured on three occasions for the Whites in the Premier League this season, with additional appearances in both the Carabao and FA Cups.
The right-back also has one England U21 cap to his name, having made his debut for Lee Carsley’s side against Georgia back in November.
Speaking to Cardiff City TV, Cody said: "I'm very happy to be here, it's a great feeling and I'm really excited to get going."
"I wanted to join because Cardiff City is a great club, first of all. From the first minute that we were linked they showed a real eagerness to get me in, which as a player is always great to hear.
"Everybody at the club seems to be really together, so hopefully I can be a part of that. I'm looking forward to showing people what I can bring to the table."
City boss Steve Morison added: "It's excellent to have signed Cody for this loan spell. It's something that we've been looking to do for the last couple of weeks, with a lot of work going on behind the scenes.
"Cody is joining us having been at the top of our list of players in that position that we'd have liked to bring in. I'm really pleased that we've managed to get it over the line."
Welcome to the Welsh capital, Cody!
Let's prey were allowed into the ground to see him play
welcome aboard Cody.
I wonder what the plans are for him:
1: like for like replacement for Giles, playing on the left.
2: playing on the right instead of Ng with Bagan playing on the right.
3 playing on the Right, with Giles rejoining and playing on the left.
3 would be the best in the short term, and if we have 2 genuine attacking wingbacks we might really start to see what this formation can be like. however we would be blocking Bagan from getting more game time, in favour of loaned players who there is little chance of coming here permanently.
other than avoiding relegation there isn't anything to play for either, so even though it might be better to watch, is it worth finishing a few places higher but not developing our own players. I dunno.
But unless we ditch vaulks pack and bacuna we still have the midfield problems that could be solved by Ralls sang and wintle (and Bowen of fit) with the need to bring in some further cover - not sure SM will do this though
Then I think we would be okay especially if we could get Giles back
Just my opinion 👍
Any pace coming into the squad has to be a good thing.
Morison:
"A lot went into it, we had to produce a presentation for Leeds to show that we were the right team for him. We showed them how we could help him and his development.
"There were lots of conversations. There was interest from other teams.
"The work the guys did in the office, the analysis team, the presentation that they put together was second to none. The feedback from that was excellent.
"Then there were relations with different people there.
"Myself, my other coaching staff, we all came together as a team. The board put the final pieces together. It was a a real team effort and I'd like to thank everyone involved."
Very positive. Welcome Cody, I think this is will be a good loan.
