Chris , you have got some work to do...............

He will turn us around early days yet , but its obvious were not scoring enough , Brooks And Ched have to start on sat against dingles , we really need to win on Sat . Home form will be key to surviving and progressing in this league .

Our shortcomings are a bit more obvious than I thought they might be, but we've just narrowly lost to the top and 4th place, both away. Not time to lose hope yet. We wont be tested quite so severely every week.

Agree re Ched and Brooks they provide a threat that we are lacking. Still played 2 of the best teams in this division and have not been embarrassed. Wilder will get this right.

I think Ched could well start on Saturday but don't forget when him&Brooksy come on as subs they playin against tirin defenders.I'm a big fan of Brooksy but i don't think our fans should put him under too pressure,i reckon bring him on wi 25mins or so to go and ease him into first team action.The need for a new centre half has grown wi Stearman's injury but Tufty knows what's needed.UTCB

I think Tufty will make changes soon Rod. I've not ben that impressed with Stearman to be honest, I just don't think he has the physical presence or arial dominance that EEL had last season, which we are now lacking. I agree regarding Brooksy, he needs to be eased in, coming on against tiring midfielders & defenders. For me Id start Duffy over Carruthers, Evans over Clarke, Laffs over Stevens. Oh and Flecks got to get to grips with the pace of the game more. Maybe contreversially Beard over Freeman? just thought I'd chuck that one in

Agreed URO (unidentified ravlike object ) .......Chedwyn and the Beard to start - quality players both of them. The others that are struggling need to take a look at themselves and raise their performances.............they need to be fitter and quicker in body and mind. If they can't or won't take this step up - well the Championship isn't for them.

Might take a while to sort the wheat from the chaff - but we'll get there if we are patient.

You read my mind...

There's no point being a technically gifted player if you don't have the speed of body or mind to keep pace with the opposition players in the Championship. The only one we have is Coutts and even he is struggling to go toe to toe. Cardiff are a bang average side for this league and we made them look like world beaters just because their players are fitter, stronger and quicker to act. It looked like men against boys for large stretches of the game.

Players like Clarke, Fleck, Freeman and (dare I say it) Sharp enjoyed the luxury of more physical space and more thinking time in League 1. They're not getting it in the Championship and they're coming up short. Kind of makes you realise why they're constantly re-sold from the Championship back down to League 1 level time and time again. Enda Stevens looks like another one of this ilk. It's time for Championship players to sign on the dotted line otherwise we are in a relegation dog fight all season, make no mistake.

Cardiff are a bang average side for this league? what does that make us then?

[AceOfBlades]

1 goal and not many more chances in 3 games, not sure the cb and dm should top the priority lists.

there's gonna be a fair few long afternoons this season, the gap between where we were and the top half of this league is huge.

we just need to make sure we haven't forgot how to create and score when we play the lesser teams
