CHANGES MADE: " CARDIFF CITY TEAM TODAY "

Alex Smithies & Junior Hoilett come in. Kieffer Moore on the subs bench.


Well, the defence has been forced again, it seems, with no Sean Morrison or Jordi Osei-Tutu, lets hope that setback on Monday is not as bad as many fear.

It means Leandro Bacuna starts at right back and Joe Bennett will likely start at centre back once again, with Joel Bagan in at left back.

Junior Hoilett is preferred to Josh Murphy and Sheyi Ojo, with Harry Wilson on the other wing.

One thing to note, though, is the return of Kieffer Moore on the bench! A big boost for City, that. Lets hope he can get some minutes under his belt today.

Tom Sang is also named among the replacements following his recall from Cheltenham Town.

Why don’t they name another kid on bench, even if they’ve no intention of playing him. Good match day experience?

We are playing arguably the best team in the league

Our defence :

We have a midfielder at right back
A left footed centre back playing on the right side
A left back at centre back
18 year old kid at left back

Square pegs in round holes

You would think it would be more beneficial to keep them in the correct positions and play Marlon pack at centre back or give a ch ce to a youngster from the u23s

Moving everyone around like this just makes no sense whatsoever and causes more problems than it solves

What does he see with that middle 3!? Every week, same outcome.

I’ve been sayings for a while now,get the u23 right back in the side to play Bacuna in midfield.Pack as Morrison replacement is an interesting one,food for thought.

Norwich make 5 changes as well - Puki out injured

I'm glad Bagan is back. Hopefully he can impress and we can see more of him, potentially could push Bacuna back into midfield which is his stronger area I think.

Its crazy management

Hes weakened the whe defence to cover a single position

Nice touch. The team are warming up wearing t-shirts with 'Bamba 22, we fight with you.'

Sick man puki out
might be the only thing in our favour.

Nice odds on 2 clear goal win for us

Harris,,, sort out the defence, FFS!!!

Wasn't Josh Murphy just about our best player against Nott Forest don't see why he should be dropped in favour of Hoilett. Would be playing against his old club too which often brings out the best from players.
