We should be concentrating on getting the likes of Andre Ward and James McArthur in rather than this type of Carlos Kickaball who nobody has ever heard of and sounds crap.



Andre Ward would be a knockout

Cardiff City are in contention to sign Sven Schipplock from the recently relegated Hamburg SV. The German forward has made 11 appearances and has been on the pitch for just 344 minutes for his side this term. Most part of the season, he was on loan to the German second division outfit Darmstadt 98.


Football 24/7

Wednesday 16th May 2018

The striker didn’t manage to score for Hamburg this term and managed just two goals in 23 appearances in the second division for Darmstadt 98. It will be interesting to see how Neil Warnock will utilise him in his team. Cardiff City might have got promoted but they seem to be slightly short on attacking option and it is clear that in the coming transfer window, Warnock will have to solve that issue by bringing in reinforcements.



Schipplock is not one of those young upcoming talents as he is currently 29 and it might very well be possible that his best years are behind him. He previously plied his trade for the likes of Hoffenheim, Stuttgart II and Stuttgart. However, he failed to establish himself as a regular starter in any of those clubs. His best spell came when he was with Stuttgart II, where he scored 31 times in 89 outings. At Hoffenheim, he managed 16 goals in 84 appearances which is a below-par return for any striker.



Cardiff City has struggled at times for goals and they are going to be in the market looking for a 15-20 goal striker. Their highest scorer this term has been Callum Patterson who managed 10 goals in the entire campaign. Patterson is traditionally a right back but has played down the right midfield this season.

For The Bluebirds to survive in the Premier League, they certainly will have to do much better than that and need to sign an out and out goal scorer. Neil Warnock has taken the most number of teams to top flight football but his downfall over the years has been that he hasn’t managed to keep them there for years and Cardiff will certainly be hoping that it isn’t the case with them as well.


Warnock has indicated that he wants his transfer dealing to be done well beforehand the season begins and Schipplock could be one of the first signings for them in the summer. Only time will tell whether the Cardiff manager will be able to bring out the best from a striker who has been more miss than a hit throughout his career so far.

For gods sake, why are we interested in a striker who cant score. We already have strikers who cant score. :banghead:

Probably because strikers that have proved they CAN score at the highest level cost upwards of 50million.

We are dealing in the potentials market.

It's not worth getting wound up by these type of stories 99% of them are agents putting a name about, trust in Warnock and consider how good the signings are once they have actually signed.

Expect a full summer of links with useless overseas footballers using a link with us and other Premier teams to raise their profile.

As proven in the last 18 months that Neil Warnock has been our manager, we should all be used to how he does dealings. How many of his past transfers to us have been quoted in the media before the club actually signs them, I think I’m not mistaken but I’ll say none, I think it’ll continue to be that way and this guy is being touted around by his agent in my opinion and I believe that he is NOT one of our targets purely based on how Warnock does his business, however if we do sign him, and that’s a big IF, then I will trust Warnock’s judgement of him and support him like I do with every other Cardiff player.
IMHO it’s a none story. :thumbup:

Surely this is a wind up. The guys record is abysmal. I'd expect a central defender to have a better goal scoring record than that.

When you read about the interview with "Blacky" published this morning you can understand why I've got no time for stories like this,I mean,can you see our management team doing due diligence on this fella? and if they did recommending that we buy him? Now if it had been Malky. :lol: :lol: :lol:
