@ThreeBluebirds_ Also crazy that Kpakio is still on that list given he has been out of the team now just as long. Both very effective players.

@FreebsTheTree Do the beard too!

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@FreebsTheTree That doesn't sound great?? Odd off the back of really good looking signings

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@roathboy Chambers in CM was much more about his on the ball ability than his destructiveness - which you wouldn't have expected from someone who has primarily been a defender.

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@roathboy I both understand the point and understand the hesitancy to put him back there. Despite the big positives he offered on CM, it meant at least one other player sitting alongside him. Wintle is more adept at playing as a single 6, offering freedom to Joel/Turnbull more freedom.

@FreebsTheTree Can maybe get you a Rotherham at home ticket at the CCS????

@RyByron Is it a painting painting? Looks like a really classy photo.

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@ThreeBluebirds_ Agree but my concern is that whilst you might get talent with loans - it's rare you get leadership, which is the key component I think we need. Preferably at centre back.

@FreebsTheTree I watched it this time! Good work man x

@FreebsTheTree Enjoy mate, catch you tomorrow

@FreebsTheTree *I realise this doesn't apply to MGW

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@FreebsTheTree It'll be fine. Watch them pluck another player who has been rejected by a 'Big 6' (🤣) team and resurrect their career!

@FreebsTheTree @MDN099 The only club managing to make Cardiff look stable and normal!

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@roathboy For me it's 100% someone who is not here. We need a new mentality. If we can find a league 1 version of Bamba, Morrison, Hudson who can bring that from outside it would solve a load of issues. I don't see any of the exp players as real consistent leaders.

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@FreebsTheTree Zero interest

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@Andrewpaulfoot @roathboy He's also the type of player who needs to be fully fit to make a difference, so it's becoming harder to justify a place for him. If he is happy to be a bit part presence then I would have him around. Would love to be wrong and see him play 40 games next year tho!

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@roathboy It's become a terrible league. Quality has got lower and lower. It's more attractive to be a benchwarmer in the prem financially than play in Champ and with 5 subs more players stay there. Apart from top 2-3 each year it's a competition about who is being run the least worse.

[Alex Lock @Alextlock]

@Savigma @roathboy Was thinking about the CB's the other day and whilst I like Goutas and Daland it's easily put in perspective if you list Bamba, Morrison, Manga, Purse, Gabbidon, Johnson, Loovens, Collins. We are nowhere near that standard who all played Champ football for us.
