Erol Bulut: “At least we can see who the future players are”

Blackburn 5 Cardiff City 2


Erol Bulut:

“The better team won, the opponent was better. The two key things in football, focus and concentration, and for us it was not enough.”



“At least we saw today that in the future, which players we can use in our main team that can help us. Today it was only a few, not as many as I was expecting. But there were a few players who can also help us in the league.”

"Even training games I want to win. But sometimes the opponent is better than you and you have to accept it, like today, the opponent was better. But the priority is the Championship and the league and we will give everything on the weekend."

Well,thats a veiled threat if ever I saw one.

More contract talks on the way -

Erol Bulut said he has planned more talks in the coming weeks to tie down players who are out of contract next summer.

Cardiff have been proactive in recent weeks and moths in getting their players to sign longer-term deals in order to futureproof the club. Some of their biggest assets such as Mark McGuinness, Perry Ng, Ryan Wintle, Joel and Rubin Colwill, Eli King, Joel Bagan and Jak Alnwick have all signed fresh terms.

There are a few notable others who see their deals come to an end next summer, namely Jamilu Collins, Joe Ralls and Ollie Tanner. And Bulut said he plans to speak with some players with less than a year left to run in the not-so-distant future.

"In the coming weeks, we are going to sit down at the table with them. Let's see what we can do," Bulut said.
