Are we watching the same bloke? Lead in his boots? The lad's a fucking machine around the pitch

Being able to call on one of Inoussa, Ronald, or Eom from the bench is one of our strongest suits, not many clubs in this division have that much pace to leave sitting around. I know Ronald's not exactly a prolific goalscorer, but he is one of the most direct players in the league, and I think...

He showed last season that he's an excellent finisher with his back to goal, and offers a lot in the eighteen yard box. Issue is that he offers nothing without the ball, and is clearly not the most rapid or agile of players, so if he isn't scoring, he's a bit of a net negative. There's defo a...

Lovely touch to include this JH. Not to nosh him off too much, but always appreciative of the details and time put into these threads, great to see it carry on into another season. Can't be up at Boro today as off to Exeter vs Blackpool with a Grecian friend of mine, but will be following...

In fairness, Wycombe were generally awful after changing managers. He's hated by most of the fans

I understand the scepticism on Kone, seeing as he's effectively had one good season at League One, but there's definitely a different feel to him than with Watters and Langstaff. Langstaff in particular was being openly rejected by clubs (us included, supposedly) through fears of him not being...

Maybe the striker we should be looking for is already at the Liberty?

Interesting this. I like Bianchini more than most, but even I am surprised to see him go on loan to someone as strong as Pompey. Says a lot that we're willing to loan out players to a team who only finished 7 points below us in the league last season

Not had an amazing match, but wonder if Kellaway is due an England call up soon? Averages 43 with the bat, 30 with the ball, and is 21. Reckon he could suit the BazBall hitting too, decent strike rate

Not too worried in terms of results, but the lack of goals is worth thinking about. Vipotnik has to start ahead of Cullen - he might not be as mobile, but he's our best finisher and much more of a rough diamond. Hard to gauge the the qualities of our lineups too. No Eom or Cabango at all, Key...

On 'pick team', you can swap players in and out. You can play any formation that involves a minimum of three defenders. Chips are bonuses you can play once per season (so save them for good weeks). Double chips refer to the fact that you now get two of each, one in the first half of the season...

Not much the club could really do to vet this in fairness, he got his achilles kicked to bits against Sheffield Wednesday, it was a bit of a freak one. Such a shame for him, on a personal note

Have a real soft spot for Govea. Partly because I think he looks really promising, but mainly because I saw him twice in the same week walking around the Mumbles with his girlfriend. Makes you realise how crazy it is for an eighteen year old Ecuadorian to be playing football in rainy South Wales!

Was just about to ask about Lissah, surprised McKenzie is there instead of him. Similarly, no Govea?

Seeing Stevie tonight in Cardiff, can't bloody wait. Feels like the last chance to catch him in the UK considering his age and lack of touring

Utterly and incomprehensibly tragic. Almost beyond words really how dark this is

On the coach there as we speak; spreading the Swans wings to start the week

They fired a manager who, if you remove his first 10 games in charge, won 78 points in 66 games; that's borderline relegation form - in fact, they'd have gone down this season if any of the promoted teams were remotely capable. This season alone, they lost 22 games in the league. TWENTY TWO...

Selfishly wonder if this helps us to offload Fisher? Not fancied here, but just had a fantastic loan spell at St Johnstone, and he's Martin's favourite. Butland is getting on a bit, so might work out well for us

As dislikable as he is, he's a very good manager at their level. For the sake of not wanting Cardiff to succeed in any capacity whatsoever, I hope he stays well away
