A forum for all things Cardiff City

Omer Riza: “I don’t like to be called the Tinkerman.”
“We keep getting injuries, players making individual mistakes,performances not up to it.”
“ So thats what they call The Tinkerman is it? I don’t like to be labelled that but it is what it is," he added. "I’d like to have a stable back four I don’t need to change, or a back five depending what we need to do, but predominantly a four.”
“But if it’s performance-based or mistakes as individuals or a team or injuries… When I have put out a sustained team of the same XI, we’ve blown up and I’ve had to make changes.”

Has he been reading the comments here?

It's rubbish that he makes changes every game because of injuries, he just can't help himself changing the team.
That's why people call him that and don't see that changing.
He should know his best team when he's been manager for six months.

Injuries maybe one or two but not every game.. but he's saying if I think players not performing he'll drop them well no wonder if keep changing team because half team doesn't perform...try keeping same side then mabe won't have to be labelled a tinkerman?

To be fair to him we have had a lot of injuries this year and big questions need to be asked about our medical team. But he also admitted his error with changing to a back 5 on Tuesday. That was total unnecessary tinkering. I think he over analyses and overthinks things rather than trusting his instincts and sometimes just the simplicity of the game.

Bloody nonsense. Yet again blaming everyone and everything except himself. No manager in any capacity or institution should do that. The back 4 did well before the Preston game yet he dropped Bagan and bought back Goutas from nowhere. Drivel

So does every club, many 8 injuries at a time, But don’t keep making up New Excuses after every game.

If you don’t want to be called a dick, don’t be a dick
If you don’t want to be called a bigot, don’t be bigoted
If you don’t want to be called a tinker man, don’t tinker

He tinkers every bloody match usually during every bloody match too.
He is absolutely clueless and a total liability.

Of course he reads this site he's made lots of comments from this site
It's just a shame he's not listening as supporters we can see where he's going wrong tickering is one tactics he made reason we end up drawing or losing we have some decent players in certain positions so what you do is stick with your strongest side play your best players yes we have had lots of injuries this season but not more than any other team sorry this guy is a youth coach at best he's not ready for the man's game sooner the seasons over the better then he's gone with his whole backroom staff we going to need to rebuild from top to the bottom

The idiot is trying to 2nd guess the opposition game plan? You simply play your Strongest team every game you dont swap it around because a team plays a particular way and you want to try fool them.... stoke reporter's are saying riza is their secret weapon to save them from the drop..
