INCONSISTENT, FRUSTRATING BUT STILL POSITIVES

‘ INCONSISTENT, FRUSTRATING BUT STILL POSITIVES ‘

By Carl Curtis

Very disappointed and certainly frustrated with that result today.

Cardiff City had the majority of play in the first half but failed to take chances that they created again.

Too many times this season, especially at home, have City created chances but failed to take them.

In the second half, Lee Peltier and Bruno Manga had gilt edged opportunities to score but failed to hit the target let alone test the keeper.

I thought too many players were below par this afternoon, there were a few individual performances that gave some positives but overall the team just didn’t click today like they did against Wolves last week.

Compared to last Saturday’s terrific win at Molinuex, this was very much a below par display.

Fans were right to expect a win today but it seemed that many players out there today looked like they thought they could turn up and the result would just come.

It was a missed opportunity today to get back to back wins and close the gap to the play offs.

If Russell Slade and the players really believe they can make the play offs in May then there has to be better performances than what we witnessed today, the frustrating part is that we know we have quality in the squad but we just don’t have any consistency in performances or results.

The question is now, can City go and get another away win next week against Huddersfield to avoid losing ground on the top six, if we are to get three points then there has to be better performances from more players than what we saw this afternoon.

We are lucky to have not lost ground and still trail the play offs by five points and that is the biggest positive I can draw after this disappointing draw against a poor Rotherham side.
