The sales of Fabio Da Silva,Captain/ever present goalie David Marshall and goalie Simon Moore in my opinion did not help Cardiff manager Paul Trollope, as you immediately unsettle your side and all what you have achieved and done in pre-season.

Of course, it is fair to say that given how long Paul Trollope had been around this current squad, he was not really in a weak position as he was with his squad last season and had the whole pre-season with them.Trollope,so new all the type of players we needed for the this season as he knew our strengths and weaknesses.

I could blame Tan again for our sales? but Trollope has to take some responsibility as he is our manager and should say I need him or I don’t need him, make the owner respect you. They say Trollope is part of the transfer committee?

I do say the sale of David Marshall was really bad business as we have already lost points through his departure and I know it unsettled our squad.
The departure of Marshall seems to have drained confidence from the whole defence. The players at the back have been the best, most consistent part of the team for a long time.

I am hoping and actually believing Ben Amos will fill Marshalls position and in time will command the defence like Marshall did.

The signing of already injured ex Villa player Joe Bennett to me is a mystery, signing a player who was already injured not played so far in nine of our first team games and still no where nearly fit, for me thats a bad signing?

I read in my other topic that many believe new striker Rickie Lambert is the answer and is playing well, so if that’s the case, so where do others see our weaknesses and what’s the problem?

What is the scale of the current crisis as we are bottom of the Championship, leaking goals,struggling to score goals,players heads go down immediately we conceed a goal.

Cardiff City may no longer boast one of the very best squads in the league but it is far, far better than one win in nine first team games, particularly given a relatively generous fixture list start to the season. Given it’s experience, it certainly should be managing the latter stages of games better.

Which leaves us facing up to the difficult and troubling question: Do Cardiff City now face the relegation fight of their lives? and it gets tougher the longer your in the bottom three.
