Is the surprise that it’s BTA starting up front?

Hope Saka plays wide right and Rudoni plays instead of Torp.
That can give us more of a spark.
And if we press please attack the ball don't just sit off and stifle them, like we did at Burnley. Force a mistake.

I wouldn't mind seeing Tavares play sometimes, has he had any games in the league this season? He isn't the best player but has done ok for us, he's quick so you'd think 20 minutes at the end of a game would be worth it sometimes. Did he fall out with Robins I wonder?

Looking at this season pass success rate for the GKs. Dovin 82.4% Collins 72.2% and Wilson 53.6%

I just checked and Tavares has been with us for over 4 seasons and has made 21 league appearances, nearly off the bench I think. Strange to keep him if he never plays, seems a waste of a career, he turns 24 in Jan.

Is his contract up in the summer? Because he’ll be released surely.

Agree, OK as a sub but cant see him ever starting for us. Happy to eat my words if he is the surprise starter today.

If its true, then fair fucks to Frank for realising so quickly that Binks just can not defend.
Hopefully he'll bring a left back in come January and that might stop us conceding 2 goals a game.

If we are playing a four and Bidwell is on the bench today perhaps Doug needs to prepare a new process.

Cardiff's attacking options have been massively restricted by the absences of Aaron Ramsey and Kion Etete, with the pair suffering from muscle and leg issues respectively.

Adding the Bluebirds' offensive woes, head coach Riza confirmed that winger Anwar El-Ghazi is set to be sidelined for a few weeks due to a groin strain.


Coventry City possible starting lineup:
Collins; Van Ewijk, Thomas, Binks, Dasilva; Sheaf, Eccles, Mason-Clark, Rudoni, Sakamoto; Simms

Cardiff City possible starting lineup:
Alnwick; Ng, Goutas, Chambers, Bagan; Robertson, Ralls, Willock, Colwill, O'Dowda; Robinson

Dress it how you like. Most of his passes have been short AAATB and successful pass doesn’t exclude passes into trouble. His long balls are awful, as is his stupid hesitant releasing of the ball when it’s in his hands.

Been saying this for a couple of seasons and got hammered for it. He should have left a couple of years ago for his own sake. He’ll be released at the end of his contract and will likely end up in League 2.

I think SBT was guessing with that ITK style post.

Not a bad team. Still prefer Dovin in goal, Kitchen CB and Bink move to LB.
