MATCH THREAD: " PRESTON v CARDIFF CITY " MATCH THREA

Cardiff City: Horvath; Rinomhota, Fish, Goutas, Daland, O'Dowda; Chambers, Mannsverk; Ashford, Colwill; Salech.

Subs: Turner, Bagan, Robertson, Turnbull, Tanner, Davies, Alves, Meite, Robinson

Riza has gone less attacking for this one :


Omer Riza has chosen to strengthen his Defence and add some more physicality with the inclusion of both Dimitrios Goutas and Jesper Daland in a back five which also includes Andy Rinomhota, Will Fish and Callum O'Dowda.

Calum Chambers returns to midfield after missing out against QPR at the weekend, while Rubin Colwiill and Cian Ashford look like they will sit in behind Yousef Salech.

Still no Chris Willock in the matchday squad.

I can't see nothing but a Prestom win.

I can see Riza walking if that happens.

BLUEBIRDS

I can't see nothing but a Prestom win.

I can see Riza walking if that happens.

He won't walk. I think he's in full on delusional mode / head in the sand / out of his depth / hoping for the best. I genuinely think he's settled for League 1 in his head and as long as he acquires 3 more draws thus season, he'll see that as a mini victory!

Wow that’s empty like CCS

Very low home crowd

Even worse than the amount of empty seats at our home games

Riza knows he’s got a job for next season because Tan has publically stated he wants him as manager next season!!!

It’s on us fans now to change the mind of the board and the clown in Malaysia

Goutas wins his first duel with Osmajic and wins a throw-in for Cardiff deep in their own half.

We've actually scored 3 more goals than them but conceded a hell of a lot more... in nutshell hats what's wrong this season.

First Cardiff attack results in O'Dowda seeing his cross blocked by Kesler-Hayden. The Irishman then concedes a free-kick.

Rubin wins the header, forward to Salech who heads out wide and nobody there…..

Not been a high-quality start. Fish sends a hopeful ball down the channel but it's easily dealt with by Hughes, who nods it back to fellow Welshman Cornel

Preston score but it's offside

Lucky

1nil Preston City’s defence all over the place

Thank fully offside

Somebody just put your damn foot through the bloody ball…

Good job flag went up.
Just get rid of the f*cking ball.

Can’t even defend with 5 at the back ffs.

All this play out from the back crap has got to stop, we create more problems for ourselves with this sh!t idea… we’re not Liverpool ffs

I feared an early Preston goal and we got away with one then! Pathetic play; dilly-dallying when a firm boot was required!

Thank you, Mr Assistant Referee for your alertness!

LATEST SCORE: PRESTON NE 0 - 0 CARDIFF CITY (11 mins)

That was actually
Horrific defending from Cardiff

That was dreadful. Thankfully offside.

City getting sliced right open

Can anybody answer why Riza has a natural number 10 playing LWF???? Why is Colwill there???

Neither team playing well

But it's Preston who look more likely to score

We are way too defensive - we need to win

It’s all Preston

He’s trying to confuse them with his line-up (the Bluebird team, I mean; not Preston)

LATEST SCORE: PRESTON NE 0 - 0 CARDIFF CITY (15 mins)

We’ve been set up completely wrong yet again, wrong players and wrong formation

Neither team playing well

But it's Preston who look more likely to score

We are way too defensive - we need to win

Ned,

Riza keeps promising attacking football this is what’s winding our fans up

All round terrible performance so far

Not dangerous in the slightest, no pace, massive gaps in midfield.
Gonna get fucked.
