Cardiff City (A) Match Thread

[Clever Fox]

I expect Enzo to give them a rollicking, We really need to step up the tempo and put the result out of sight.

at 0-1 anything can happen.

Last minute goal anyone?

[inckley fox]

We're the better side, but you do have to actually try to score from time to time - get the ball in, take a risk etc. We recycle possession again and again and end up generating openings which are inferior to the initial ones.

 

And we're in trouble the moment that any side presses. As soon as we're pushed back into the final quarter of the pitch, we invariably fail to carry the ball out of our own half. If we do, it's via a fairly direct counter. And yet we encourage the press and, at the same time, are reluctant to seek the counter-attack.

 

We should still win though, for all my gripes! It would take a masterclass in failing to assert your authority, or a whole lot of bad luck, for us to do otherwise.

It’s alright keeping the ball but got to go forward and attack the goal

The Darts has been pretty good over the last few days!

I had paused it on the Anderson game but I've just decided to sack off our game.

 

Follow the roller coaster that is a match thread and watch Peter Griffin throw some arras

Don't know what everyone is complaining about, my match has been fine. Hopefully Matty Fryatt comes on soon though Hume is having a shocker 

[Simonb]

Get 2 early goals on the second half, ensure the points are in the bag and then see it out. Stop keeping the game 'interesting' against poor teams

My stream keeps switching from the EFL to FoxesPlayer to Cardiff's player like we're in the ****ing multiverse or something

Are friday nights classed as weekend?

Not clear is it tbh

Whole team looks tired. They're playing like they wished the game ended as soon as we scored. These lot score more from corners then anybody else, so we'll need another or this could be a repeat of Ipswich.

Much rather Yann come on - reckon he’ll do something special

[SecretPro]

Fuchs tactical knowledge and insight had been superb on FoxesHub the last two games. Breath of fresh air. Much better than Matt and Gerrys demanding we lump it forward all the time.

Yeah I agree, their setup has been a lot more passive than I expected.

 

One thing we must take into account is the number of games we are playing. Players are going to be tired, and tiredness leads to mistakes. But after scoring we took our foot off the gas... which is exactly what happened in the second half against Ipswich.

 

I'd like to see subs as I think fresh legs / hungry players could make a difference. Admittedly, the subs in the last game did absolutely nothing other than make us worse though!

A pattern that’s worryingly becoming habitual…

[DJ Barry Hammond]

West Brom GOAL!

We've played a lot of football lately, surprised a small break isn't built into the season

[Chrysalis]

Hamza having quite a good game, he has won it back loads when we lost it.

They probably are tired tbh. They are in Cardiff on a cold late December night rather than at home stuffing their faces.

I don't think Leeds are a threat to us. Southampton are!

Almost never ask but are anyone's streams actually good? They literally all seem to be shit for me.
