Blakey on Murphy jeers and how to replace Lee Tomlin
A few words from Nathan Blake this week:
NATHAN BLAKE:
“Some might think that Cardiff City fans jeering Josh Murphy is unfair, I don’t subscribe to that view.
“It’s not nice, I admit that, but you have to understand frustration, because that’s all it is.
“It’s not because fans don’t like him and they are all hating on him, not at all.
“Right, you look at the Josh Murphy who played against Nottingham Forest on Tuesday night and you contrast that with the Josh Murphy who played for Cardiff City when he first joined.
“In those pre-season games he was electrifying, looked an intelligent footballer who wanted to be the man to make the difference in games.
“Unfortunately, he is a shadow of his former self right at thus moment in time.
“Whether that is down to a lack of confidence or not — and yes, cheering his substitution is hardly going to help him — I’m not sure, but the only person who can drag him out of the mire is Murphy himself.
“People will say to me: ‘Blakey, he has just scored five goals in six games.’
“Yes, but that’s six games. I want 20 goals in 35 games and then we’ll talk.

Cardiff City's Neil Harris lifts lid on 'unsavoury incident' between Callum Paterson and Leandro Bacuna as he reveals apology
The manager said it was "not a good look" for the football club but that matters were now resolved and “We move on.”
By Tom Coleman
Thursday 27th February 2020
Cardiff City boss Neil Harris insists there is no rift in the Bluebirds dressing room, despite Callum Paterson and Leandro Bacuna's bust-up at the end of the defeat to Nottingham Forest.
However, Harris has confirmed that he has since received an apology from both players and has also reminded them of their responsibilities.
Both players were seen squaring up to each other following the disappointing defeat at Cardiff City Stadium, although Harris himself was immediately keen to play it down, claiming at the time that both players had patched things up in the dressing room.
Nevertheless, with Cardiff's play-off hopes hanging on a knife-edge heading into Saturday's clash with fifth-placed Brentford, it was a sight that will have generated a fair amount of concern among the City faithful.
NEIL HARRIS:
"I spoke afterwards," Harris said when questioned on the mood in the camp in light of the incident. "I didn't see the incident at the time. I was down the tunnel. But when I was asked afterwards, I was quite reflective. It is a passionate game. We are a passionate football club.
"We talk about the passionate fanbase. A workman-like fanbase. We as a club wear our heart on our sleeve. I'm all for personality and aggression at the right times.
"Having reflected on it and looked at it back. It reminded the players, them two in particular, but the group too - we do have a young fanbase that does attend games and that disappointment and those argumentative moments need to be dealt with in private in the changing room.
"99 out of 100 are. So I've reminded them of their professional responsibilities as sportsmen and how they're role models."
Harris has revealed that he has since spoken to both players, and seemingly has no concerns over picking either of them for this weekend's important clash with the Bees.
"As a pair, they're great," he added. "They're really, really good guys. They were fine afterwards and I've had an apology from both of them.
"I said to them, 'it's not just about the apology, it's about making sure it doesn't happen again'. They want to win and they were disappointed afterwards.
"It's unfortunate and it's not a good look. It doesn't look great for the football club and I tried to play it down afterwards, because it's not something I want us to be remembered for.
"It doesn't reflect the group. They're not like that in the group. Yes, they want to win, but there's not a horrible mentality in the group and they've really evolved since I've been here. It was an unsavoury incident. The players have put it to bed. I've dealt with it behind the scenes.
"What I know about the group is they're really good lads. They're really good lads. What's important for everyone to know is that there's no underlying issue.
