Not finished?

We tried to strengthen the team. Until the transfer market finished, we try to get quality in for Cardiff City. Two or three players, there can be.

When the market gets closer to the end it’s not easy, it gets tighter, fewer players on the market. We are focusing on players, we are negotiating. We also have players who get offers, let’s see what we can do.

Striker striker striker that is the most important.

Ideally we get:

New top striker
McAteer
McKenna

I'm also surprised with Bulet we're not linked with or brought in more from Europe/Turkey/Greece.

I would also sell Ng, lacks pace to help us going forward.

Possible team:

-------------Hovarth--------------
Conte---Chambers---Goutas---ODowda
-------–------Siopis--------------
-------Robertson---Ramsey---------
El Ghazi----New Striker----Willock

Bench(from):
Alnwick
Ng
Kanga
Meite
Turnbull
Colwill
Ashford
Tanner
Ralls
Bagan

Players to leave:
Romeo
Wintle
McG
Rhinomota
Evans (loan)
King (loan)

Long Term Injuries:
Etete (loan him when he's back)
Davies
Collins

If we get McAteer then move El Ghazi across to play as a striker.

Ok now start shouting at me about Ng...

You must be on a wind up.

Ng has been our most consistent performer for a while. He is a brilliant right back. Also has a good ability at winding up opposition players.

You don’t need pace to be a good full back - look at the likes of Gary Neville and Ben White.

Secondly, El Ghazi can play as a striker but it’s not his first position. Why sign a player like that and not use him in his best position?

Thirdly, forget about McKenna. Going to Las Palmas, they’re giving him a good contract.



Agree we need to sign a striker and we will now that Davies is injured.

McAteer would be a good addition to provide competition.

I also think we will look for a CB and LB.

Four new signings I can see then. I know Bulut said 2/3 but four is what I expect.


King is going nowhere by the way, he’ll be back up CM with Ralls.
