FAIRLY STRONG CARDIFF TEAM FOR CUP: TONIGHTS TEAM NEWS

Tue Aug 29, 2023 5:47 pm

Without seeing them on the pitch - I'm guessing that Ollie Tanner is being used as a makeshift wing-back? With potentially Ebou Adams at centre-back? Or maybe even Rinomhota. Who knows? No centre-backs selected on the starting XI - with only Mark McGuinness on the bench to cover that position.

Romaine Sawyers starts despite being told he's free to leave. Vontae Campbell is on the bench despite being in a similar position. Good to see youngsters on the bench once again.

It’s good to see that both Benjamin and Simpson are no where near that line up!
Looks like Bulut has had it with both of them, and so he should!

Would rather play this, than have those two anywhere near the first 11.

That's a bold team from Erol Bulut!

Adams at CB and Rino at LB??

Good that Tanner and Colwill are starting. Pleased to see Ashford on the bench.

Just about to walk to the ground, come on Cardiff City :bluebird:

Interesting to see Adams and Rino in the back four

Other than the strange player position that's a decent looking line up

How anyone can call that a strong team is mixed up.Never seen the likes of it before. :banghead:

Experimental defence. A lack of height and defensive experience. Are we really this desperate or maybe not interested in progressing in this cup?
Can't see a good result with this team. :(

Well that team has confused me I guess we are just using this cup to experiment and if we get through good and if not the club does not seem worried about it

Not sure how The Governor can call that a strong team but it’s certainly an interesting one!

Really couldn't give two hoots about this cup game tbh or who plays atleast he's trying different things position wise. We all know Simpson is done even the blind know how bad he is so glad he's not playing tbh
the cup games are sadly lacking any spark for me these days and clubs who play whoever untill the last few stages :bluescarf:

This hame will show him who's ready or not so that's 1 thing.
