Not bad, but I’d certainly have Sancho over Rashford and probably Grealish over Phillips. I wouldn’t want two defensive midfielders in one team.

The few takeaways from the last few pages of posts and my views on them all.... 1- I don’t mind that we have a salary cap, I’d rather we were more prudent financially, as we are a shit ton in debt. 2- My eternal confusion of our transfer policy is that surely, it can’t be a mystery how much players cost and how much they want to be paid. I accept I don’t work in football and have no clue about transfers, but surely, the first things you’d ask are the fee and wages?! 3- We are three days away from the start of the season and we haven’t stopped faffing yet.

All sorts of rumours on Cardiff message boards. Two obvious ones are the ones that keep cropping up, though....

On the one hand, I’m glad the club are communicating, but as we know from the Venky’s at the wheel, actions speak louder than words...

Right but that’s fine as a one off, but as I said, with a full squad available, I’d hope we wouldn’t go with that system again.

If you were happy with that performance and think it needs another go, then fair one, but I thought we were very poor against Denmark. Just stick with the tried and tested 4-3-3 when all players are fit. Simple.

We experimented with three at the back last night and it failed, so let’s hope the experiment isn’t repeated. Also, Shaw isn’t a centre back, so that first one wouldn’t work.

To be fair mate, we need to wait until the end of the transfer window to judge. Even if those inferior defenders we hope to replace cost us goals and ultimately points.... (Before anyone it triggered, I know that we need to stop faffing about and get on with it).

Either way, those fees are a large part of the reason our pockets are considerably more shallow than they could be....

Pains me to say it, but Mee or Tarkowski have got to be better than some of this lot.

To be fair, so do England. Along with central midfield, we are seriously lacking compared to full back, and on the wings.

That midfield is horribly poor. All graft and no craft. Trippier at left back isn’t working. We aren’t playing well, to say the least.

In fairness to Mowbray, when he said ‘defenders are coming’, he never specified when....

Fighting a relegation battle and doomed for relegation are not the same thing.

Like computer games, they should never have passed the £40 threshold. £50 for a football top I’d only wear to play in. I’ll wait until the end of the season....

It’s not just this one. They definitely call is silly season for a reason....

That’s nice, but can you kick a ball in a straight line though?

Unless we really sort the defence out, then probably about the same as last year.

Whilst I agree that we shouldn’t get carried away with a friendly, I also think any good performance should be recognised. Also, isn’t it possible that Magloire could have improved since then?

Whilst I think there’s work to be done with him, I definitely don’t want us to lose him!

Where have you read that? Nyambe gets more than enough praise!

He’d probably just hand it to himself.

Bit early to be on the booze....

I remember him making his debut for Blackpool in the PL against us at Bloomfield Road, he came off the bench and scored almost right away. Always been a good player at this level though.

No doubt, I just get tired of people preaching on both sides, it gets absolutely tiresome and causes too much bother.
