    Murphy

    I know some people joked about us signing the wrong twin but the more i see Josh play the more i believe we accidentally signed the wrong one....

    I remember the norwich fans saying the same thing as soon as we signed Jacob. FFS man :/ haha

    I still have faith in him.

    He'll still turn it around i reckon, he's just taking longer than we'd like or expect.

    I also think their fans would have said that whichever brother we signed

    Ive just read the same thing on face book and believe the following to be pretty accurate

    honestly at the time our murphy was the best one!
    the difference is the other one had had regular footy in a more confident side where as ours is not a first team player.

    Cardiff dont have the same pressure put on their players when playing at home, unlike St James! The personal spat between our owner and manager has now resulted in a pressure cooker situation both on and off the pitch. Players are playing safety first, instead of taking a gamble, and risk losing the ball. We all know its Ashleys fault, he has never had the club at heart, just a means of free advertising,for his ****ty retail outlets, thats what businessmen do! If he had given Rafa the Ģ90M instead of buying House of Fraser everyone would have been happy! Rafa would have signed a new contract, and signed the quality players he was after! Ashley could have carried on taking the sky money, and we would not be in the sorry, sad state find ourselfs in today. WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH.

    Maybe he just needs a good run and he's one of these players who needs to get into his stride? Having said that, he hasn't exactly grabbed the opportunities he has had.

    Certainly at the moment, though, he's not looking like the wisest purchase.

    Jacob Murphy is way better than Atsu..... as is Josh.

    Going back to this thread of some time ago Im watching the Cardiff Brighton game & not so sure we did get the wrong Murphy.They are both average to say the least & Josh gets a first team game every week so should be more confident etc.

    It can't do Jacob's confidence any good when Atsu gets the nod ahead of him.

    Well there both on the bench today so let's hope he looks at Murphy over Atsu for a change. I think he could cause problems when they start tiring.
