Back three were outstanding. Dabo's passing needs work; he's got time to practice now so there's a silver lining!

Moore is such a presence compared to Marosi. Waghorn's work rate and movement really caught my eye today.

Want O'Hare, Allen and Hamer to pull the trigger from the edge of the box sometimes. Keep defenders guessing.

Believe it or not, we're bottom of the fair play table.....

Championship - Fair play table 24/25

This statistic shows the fair play table of the Championship of the 24/25 season. Clubs are listed in order of points ascending.

Really not sure how.

O’Hare can understand as most of the time it’s a pass back to the goalkeeper when he does shoot. Hamer maybe lacking a little confidence

Dabo will be a real loss, his energy and attacking impetus are key, and he’s improved defensively.

It’s obviously early days, so he’ll improve as he settles, gets fit, plays etc, but Kane has looked poor in his cameos. Which compounds the loss of Dabo even more.

Waghorn looks like he has relaxed into the shirt now. I think he was trying too hard early on but two solid performances and appreciation of this by the fans has made a big difference.

Some of the best attacking football I’ve seen city play. Slick passing, great movement off ball and inventive…just missing some clinical fishing…if we find that this team could finish in top 6. Defence very solid against a tall, aggressive and ‘bullying’ team. Only thing I can fault is dabo’s rush of blood. Can’t remember last time a performance (rather than result) has left me feeling so high.

Well done Robins for keeping the same team. He could have been justified in putting Sheaf in there for Allen to counter their physicality but he obviously has confidence in the team's ability to out-football the likes of Cardiff. There were also clever tactics keeping 3 upfield when defending corners, stopping them from crowding the box.

And still winning all the headers

I thibk kane has been ok in his game is personally

Some hard tackles vs Boro and today he was fouled twice in lead up the Cardiff only good chance. First hand to face then pushed in back

He got to byline tonight too in attack so if it's him who gets now over da Costa hopefully he can help us

Best game I’ve seen JCS have for us, he was defensively sound, strong in all his battles and really confident on the ball, even bringing it out of defence which always causes issues for the opposition.

Hyam was great too, his anticipation, positioning and strength were especially stand out today. McFadz was a leader and battler as always.

Gyokeres, Allen, COH and Hamer the other stand outs.

We’re a real joy to watch and I would fancy us to give anyone a game.

The movement and Passing was incredible at times, just need to have that bit of luck to have the additional goals that it looks deserves, defenders looked solid for the majority of the game against tough demanding opponents.
really enjoyed that tonight

O’Hare needs to spend his time learning to aim top corner, it’s the only way he’s going to score outside the six yard box.

Damn we look a really good team. Getting scarily excited

Do need to be better in final third. Allen playing so well but may just lack the skill to thread through final ball

Gyokres continues to look like perhaps his level is prem

Such a shame Dabo may have cost us future points. Auto promotion is at stake

Nice to be able to read your comments without using google translate.
Must take issue with your point about Allen, as he was the guy who played the ball through for Gyo to score in these last two games.

O’Hare off the mark on goal involvements. May as well pay up now.



What was Hamers for? Dissent?

My MOTM was McFadz, who is a real leader, backed up really well tonight by Clarke-Salter and Hyam. Noone has mentioned it (I don't think) but the pass he made from a free kick right onto Gyokores' boot on the edge of the area was brilliant.

Someone posted it earlier but that is one of the most comfortable 1-0 victories I’ve watched.

Moore didn’t have a save to make did he? Hyam was class and not sure he lost a header!! Waghorn and Gyo’s feet were like glue, everything seemed to stick and their runs were constantly dragging dragging Cardiff’s defence all over the place.

Great atmosphere again but not sure there were 1500 Cardiff there! Even if there were their support was very quiet which I think is a testament to how much we controlled the game.

Only negative is Dabo’s red but was just a rush of blood to the head but with Kane slotting in, hopefully, it won’t have too much of a negative effect.

Everything about the goal was class tonight. Allen’s through ball, O’Hare’s subtle flick onto Gyo. The finish was perfect and at the perfect moment right before he was closed down.

You can tell we’re an outfit that has a clear identity, the continuity of management and players and everything is coming together nicely this season.

Going into the season, I felt like all our strikers could get 10 goals, I did not expect Gyo to be on 4 goals after 7 games at all!

Two assists as well! 6 goal involvements in 7 games is incredible. That’s 75% of our goals he’s been involved in.

Gyo will only improve too. There’s a couple of occasions where his final ball is lacking, the most recent example being the Godden chance.

He’s been a revelation. I thought he was a good signing, perhaps someone who would grow into the season. He’s taken this season by the scruf of the neck and is riding high on momentum. Whatever he touches, he scores.
