CiderHider Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 reading their forum saying Bobby leaving is good as it frees up a position for Tomlin, I can see Cardiff fighting for mid table this season if they are pinning their hopes on fatty arbuckle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 I fancied Cardiff but completely changed my mind. Average team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 By all accounts he's back in shape. And a '3' behind the striker of say Hoilett-Tomlin-Murphy could bode well. Attitude etc notwithstanding. Callum Paterson for Hoilett another good example. On paper it looks quite good...on paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldlandReddies Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Cardiff do look a poor team with a very limited squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he fancies a move to a league one club or below, thats what it usually means when he gets back in shape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

man in the middle Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Tomlin and Pack had a very open argument in social media when Tomlin left. I remember Tomlin boasting about promotion to the premier League and Pack asking him how many games he’d played then it turned to Tomlins weight.

Each to their own but they generally dominate both in terms of chances and the ball at this level under Bielsa. High pressing, proactive. Bielsa, wouldn't get high praise from the likes of Guardiola, Pochettino and Martino- plus Simeone though he's a pragmatist but changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol Rob Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 I would have thought that with his experience, Colin will have Tomlin in the reserves long before Pack and Flint get the hump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Tomlin playing alright by all accounts- attitude right and he could be a big factor in more ways than the obvious! Hope he does his usual but if he doesn't... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityexile Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 I know possession isnt everything, but Fulham with 89% possession first half is a bit over and beyond. Looking at their bench, think most of those would be in most sides starting eleven at this level. Their fire power looks strong, and with players like Sessegnon and Bryan, lets be honest, there is some real quaility there. edit...wrong thread!

They are also committed to paying £11m for Reid. No doubt they will go up but if not they could have financial problems unless they sell big.

DT The Optimist Posted August 21, 2019 Report Share Posted August 21, 2019 Tomlin has been an interesting watch over the waters. I will remember that player on the loan and how he was, not the player after he signed. Well documented about his 'demons' and hope he has got over them and can look the player he should be. let's be fair, we all like to see good players in the Championship (as long as he's not good against us). If Warnock cannot get him to perform then he will be back in League One. Perhaps he will get a run in the Cardiff side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they've got a lot of players Fulham what with their signings who could slot into lower PL sides- they should win this League. Fantastic bench strength too, as you say. Rumoured to be adding Hector in January- think they're looking to build a side or a squad with a lot of players good enough for lower to lower mid table PL when they reach it! @chinapig Selling Ryan Sessegnon for as much as they did will help to mitigate that IMO. Think was £25m- number of PL loanees and freebies left in the summer and surely relegation % wage cuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
