Cardiff (H) - Sat 6th Feb 15:00 - Matchday thread

[City_USA]

Mornin'all. Interesting team today. Looking forward to it. COYR

[Mr Popodopolous]

Great to see Williams back! Plus Lansbury start...wasn't sure if we'd see Williams back today.

One small reservation is would Diedhiou starting risk pushing Wells to the left again? Might the CM 3 with Palmer as a '1' behind Semenyo and Wells or maybe Paterson wide left have offered a bit more balance?

That said the 1st 11 and squad looking that bit deeper. Cardiff (I think) lining up in a 3-4-3 or 3-5-2? Vs our 4-3-3.

[Better Red]

Lansbury to score today. COYR

As a fan who wasn't around in 1982 it's brilliant to hear Sweeney talking here. Noble words and well spoken.

On the squad. All about Williams today isn't it.

If would be great if we could have a 1970's Gerry Sweeney in the current team. Come to think of it, it would be great if we could have most of the 70s team available now. Not all of them were super skillful but they all gave 100%

[Lanterne Rouge]

Preston 1 down home to Rotherham with a real comedy own goal.

Sounds like a Tale That’s Old as Time.

Flint going for the Zlatan look complete with headband.

Owers says looks like he's ill.

[ExiledAjax]

I fancied Phillips as a goalie, great stats in his time at Charlton. Could see him as a potential purchase if Bentley were to leave this summer. Max + Phillips as 1 and 2.

This will be interesting.

Seems to be more of a sickness than injury

[Lanterne Rouge]

Bizarre. He just sunk to his knees. Illness?

Heard we might be interested in him so got injured in readiness.

4-3-3

Which when we play that seems to be more 4 5 1. We don't keep the ball well enough to play this. Fingers crossed the new lads can change that. Wells out wide AGAIN. So frustrating.

[RedorDead BCFC]

Checking his pulse, so illness must be. 

[Jerseybean]

Odd one looks like he probably started with an issue which when faced with a City free kick seriously worsened! 

 

 

 

[pl00peh91]

Would he not have known he was ill 15 minutes ago?

[RUSSEL85]

Rivalries aside I hope he’s ok

Looks like Lansbury is the deepest of the 3, with HNM & Williams ahead of him. 
Sem looks like he’s left of the 3 up front. Wells right. Although him and Fam have swapped a couple of times. 
Hard to tell at the moment though as the ball has been up in the air from Cardiff for 10 minutes and there’s no shape from either team!! 

[Rossi the Robin]

That doesn’t  sound good - hope he’s ok

 

[Fordy62]

Did we have a shot on target? If so, it could be shock?!
