Really? I thought he missed opportunities to just run at the defender and definitely was underwhelming. Did more than godden

I thought he looked really lively especially when he first came on. I realise it is fashionable to write this player off but as far as I am concerned he caused Burnley more concern than any of the other strikers that played on Saturday.

He didn't. He made poor decisions and did a few step overs

He was trying to actually create something, one of the few on the pitch that almost did to be fair. Could potentially be seen as a real asset come later on in the season

I never said he was good enough to start, Im just saying he’s not that bad that he’s not good enough full stop like you were for some reason suggesting

I live near Cardiff and have watched them play about 4 or 5 times this season (I scav tickets off my 2 friends with season tickets) and am in the away end with my lad on Saturday. PUSB!!!

Cardiff have no resemblance to the old McCarthy team. I think only Ng and Ralls remain from last year. They play out from the back, and their keeper has great distribution and is very comfortable on the ball. Kipre is absolutely solid in defence. They have good pace down the wings with the likes of Romeo, Rinhomota, O'Dowda and N'Kounkou.

They look pretty dangerous on the break but have struggled in the last third, with lack of a quality striker being glaringly obvious. Once a counter attack fails, they dont know what to do with it, and there was nobody in the box to win headers etc. They have bought in Robinson which has helped. let hope not too much!

I think this one could be tough, Cardiff are on a ok run. But then again, I dont see them scoring more than 1. Famous last words...

I remember when we used to try and play like that. Much prefer watching Gyo chase down hopeless long balls

Not sure, but i have it in my head we never win in Wales. I think we might have had a couple of good results last few years, but is that wishful thinking?

I can't think of any except for the 1-0 at Cardiff under Eric Black and the paint pot trophy win against Swansea reserves
