Match Thread Cardiff City v Everton- Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Toffeelover]

A reprieve for Silva for now if only he can build on this. I remain concerned and unconvinced.

 

[Darth Toffeeman]

Think the issue with starting Jags in the derby is that Liverpool are more than good enough to just play it through him - Cardiff simply didn't have the quality to do that tonight.

Silva has a big decision to make there I think.

Yep, there is no ideal sollution.

Zouma is positionally dreadful, Mina is still adapting and Keane is a confidence player, who struggles when turned.

Oh for a prime Jagielka (and Lescott, though his character wasn't in the same class as Phil).

We still haven't replaced those 2. Only Stones has come close to the required levels in a decade.

But we need his organisational qualities...

I think they outweigh anything else

Great support again.

He actually played OK. Was responsible for the first goal too with a defence unlocking pass for Coleman down the right.

Unless we play a 5?

Keane - Jags - Zouma
Coleman --------------------------- Digne​

Looks too congested that for me.

There's mistakes in Keane and Zouma.

Only one on the pitch at a time!

I thought Distin was an excellent defender for us before he went to poo in Matinez's 2nd season. Kept strikers in his pocket for fun with his athleticism.

Exact same reason i voted him. Huge thing having a leader there for once other than players looking clueless.

Yep, exactly! It's been so long since I've seen anybody take charge in our defence like that, it really stood out.

Does it still look the same mate?

Haha, in fairness no!! Scrubbed up well over the years!!!
