Sky Sports pundit Don Goodman:
"Cardiff City has been a bit of a basket case of a club. Not just this season, but across the past few years, too. If I'm honest with you, I'm not surprised it's been a struggle for them this season.
They had a solid campaign under Erol Bulut last year, but almost half of their 53 goals came from set-pieces. In my opinion, whilst they're a huge part of football, you can't rely on set-pieces to win games week-in-week-out. 16 goals from open play is a little better this season, but it's not enough in reality.
The Bluebirds have struggled at both ends of the pitch. Only three sides have scored fewer goals than them and only three teams have conceded more goals. This tells me the whole team needs strengthening.
Omer Riza did well, initially, when he came in but they then delayed appointing him permanently which showed a lack of faith and then, all of sudden, they were going nine games without a win and are back in the mire.
I think they need a lot of new blood. Whether Vincent Tan will actually back them, however, is a different story. I do fear for them."
