What, no Don Murray ?!!! I'll give you the benefit of the doubt in that he may be just a tad before your time.

I'm struggling to think of many who have been better than him in my time following Cardiff tbh mate.
Iv been going since 92 and he would make a top 10 of our best defenders in that era with ease.

TBF he doesn’t have much competition to make top 10 especially with some of the dross we had in that time.
Whenever I think about a best XI from players in my time watching city CB is always the place I struggle to pick the best 2 we have had a lot at a similar level.

Oh I don't know mate, I think this is our 17th consecutive season in the top 2 divisions isn't it, a lot of defenders have come and gone in that time at this level with some decent ones in there and he is definitely one of the better ones.
I would go in no particular order.
Morrison
Manga
Loovens
Johnson
Bennett
Gabbidon
Collins
Purse
Mcnaughton

McNaughton is not a CB though or Bennett.
No Bamba not even better than Purse

Manga
Gabbidon
Collins
Hudson
Johnson
I’d find it hard to pick the best 2 out of those 6.
Mozza would defiantly be i. the 4 under those to make the top 10. Flint if he keeps up these performances could be right up their sensational first two games for him MOM in both,
