Bruno Ecuele Manga hands down

close behind inamoto for me even though he didnt play too many games he was class

Are you asking best while playing for us ? In my time best play Gary Medal but here for a limited time.

Michael Chopra or Gary Medel...
Did love Camerassa too!

Chopra was born in Newcastle I don’t think we are talking about his parents or grandparents

Deffo wasn't Cornellius loved gunns medal and camerasa and Kimbo but a unsung hero who deserves a thank you his legs had gone but he led the line every week Heider helgurson

Also our keeper Healy in the 70s

I can go with that; loved him at Ninian Park and his partnership with Tony Evans was as good as we've had for that one season they played together...
Lots of others could be mentioned but I'll stick with Alston...
Tue Jul 25, 2023 7:18 pm
Camerassa 100%

Still my favourite ever Bluebird - just one season with us, but what a player he was. In the modern era, I'd go with Camarassa as he also had that maverick touch about him. Both great entertainers in their own way

Gunnarsson

Gunnarsson will take some beating.

Medel

I terms of ability then probably medel. He was Fanta at the World Cup just after leaving us. He was on another level ability wise.
For consistent quality service and commitment then I’d probably say gunnarson. It’s testament to how good he was for us that we probably haven’t managed to replace him yet.
Special mentions to manga and bamba though.

Easy one one for … Gary Medal.
Manga and of course Bamba we’re both excellent.
Wed Jul 26, 2023 7:25 am
Gunnarson closely followed by manga for me
Wed Jul 26, 2023 7:51 am
Any bluebird who was around in mid 70,s would know Adrian Alston in partnership with Free transfer Tony Evans would say Alston would take some beating ( and in the iconic city strip).
Gunnerson for clubman.

Best foreigner in terms of football profile Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink
Best foreigner in terms of performances for Cardiff probably Aron Gunnarson because he stuck around for a few seasons at a consistent level.
My personal favourite Heidar Helgurson but like Gary Medal was only around for a season.

Winston Faber, was so excited at the signing of a Dutch Wingback and the prospect of Total Football at Ninian Park, alas...
Wed Jul 26, 2023 11:14 am
Gunnarsson.
Wed Jul 26, 2023 11:33 am
Inamoto was class on loan for us. I remember all the Japanese fans buying the club shop out of stock on Boxing Day against Wolves
Bruno Manga was excellent for us. Gunnarson though is probably my pick. Underrated workhorse!! and he popped up with some vital goals. Loosens is a close second.

Best foreign player by a country mile " PETER WHITTINGHAM."
