I'd swap him for a lot of PL defenders. Problem is he would'nt get into many of the established PL teams. I think anyone who rates him as the second best defender behind Kompany in the PL really has their biggest pair of blue tinted glasses on. At 33 years old, I would have thought if he was that good he would have been snapped up by a PL club a long time ago.
If it was a biased opinion, I would be claiming Morrison is the 3rd best, Manga is the 4th and Zohore is the new Drogba. But I'm not, I just genuinely believe it about Bamba. I think Warnock said something similar about not swapping him or Morrison last season, and I think he's in a good position to judge.
I take your point about him being snapped up but I watch every Cardiff game and a lot of football, so I can only judge on what I see personally.

Fortunately I know it's "than" yourself.

Glad your good at something because your judgement of footballers is diabolical

He has been a good defender for us without doubt, but being good at Championship level is completely different to what he is about to face next season. I am sure PL clubs will have had a look at him in the past, and as I say, at his age he is not likely to impress the bigger clubs any more than he has done in the past. I hope he does well for us, but I have a feeling he may find the better strikers at this level a bit too much for him. I think at the moment we are a PL side full of Championship quality players. I just hope that our team spirit and willingness to give 100% to the cause (plus hopefully a few quality signings) will be enough to keep us out of the bottom three. I am going to enjoy it whatever, never seen us play in the top division before as I missed out last time.

Oh behave, he is the best defender this club has had in the last 30 years at least, and anyone with half a football brain can see that.
I think he had one bad game, Preston away, where Hugill got the better of him.
But please name just one "calamatous" moment of his and prove me wrong.
Anyway Warnock can see how good he is and that's all that matters, luckily.

He for me was close for player of the season. He made couple of slip ups (as does every player). But regardless of that. He was partnership to the best defence in the league.
I can take people preferring Morrison. I get that. But it depends what type of defender you want. Ball playing or a limited center back. They are both great at what they do.
And like someone else said. I wouldn't swap either of them or anyone. Simply because they have such a great partnership that you risk breaking.
