Can’t fault that performance. A little bit of work to do defensively but that would be nitpicking.
I really hope this is the performance that kicks us on as we have stalled after our last two occasions we got a league win. This result could be massive for confidence and mentality.
But we were excellent from the back to the very top today. Patterson was sublime, Piroe was just sheer class. They were the two star men for me but wasn’t a bad performance amongst them.
I know the opposition was horrendous, not seen a side as bad as that for a long long time, they pass to areas not to players, whether their players are in those areas is an after thought. Just embarrassing… but we did a number on them and did exactly what we should do against teams like that.
We know now we can put in performances like this, are capable of doing it for 90 mins so we have to expect more from this group of players going forward. We really are an excellent side with some very good players indeed. We need to be competing in the top half of this league and there is nothing stopping us doing that relatively soon.
Final mention to Russ, some criticism sent his way for the season so far, but it’s important in any critique to also give praise when deserved and it’s fully deserved today. Good team selection, sensible tactics at the different stages of the game, frustrating them when we went ahead was a joy to watch.
Just an excellent all round performance BUT we need to build on this now. There is no reason why we can’t or shouldn’t. |  |

Great post.
Worst side we ve played for ages and an embarrassment to our capital.A filthy collection of clowns who simply look for set pieces to get a spawny goal and if it fails,simply kick the opposition.
Our defence wont have an easier day. |  |

Excellent thread and analysis as ever.
A proper turning point - turning possession into purposeful possession with a cutting edge. Martin has clearly been reading this forum, thank heck.
Some of us predicted a 3-1 drubbing - we even surpassed that, and despite the abject opposition we were notches above where we have been.

If Roy Keane was chairman of Cardiff he wouldn't let Mick McCarthy on the bus and make him get a taxi home!
Will he last until the morning? |  | | |

Back to a healthy mix of short and long passes and direct attacks. 10% long today which is around the mark (10-15%) it needs to be in my opinion.
Anything below that is abnormal, feels forced and I believe we suffer as a result. Today felt like winning the game was the first port of call, which is how it needs to be.
7 shots on target today, I’ve not checked but must be the highest tally of the season so far. We had some nice long through balls to Piroe and Laird and taking some long direct shots too from all over the pitch not just through Ntcham and Pato.
Doing that doesn’t mean we have to sacrifice the ethos of the passing game either as we showed today, we need to keep this purpose moving forward. Can’t be another flash in the pan.
My biggest concern is holding onto players like Piroe. That will only be possibly if we are relatively successful. This is a play off chasing standard team, make no mistake there. Top 10 side without question. | |

5 CB’s in the starting 11 and still conceding 13 goals in 4 games.  | |

Agreed. Piroe is the biggest concern. His ongoing post goal celebrations are telling, still. His dad is extremely switched on and a very clever guiding influence, in so many ways.

Is this the Piroe we’ve got on a 3 year deal ?
He’s going nowhere unless we sell him for big bucks (and he won’t go for big bucks unless he scored a hat full this season and next, all to Swansea’s advantage of course). | | | |

Correct BTS. Sadly PSV will have no doubt some sort of percentage sell on clause. Listening to fans n the radio after the game the 4 stars mentioned most were Piroe, Patterson, Downes and Liard. Only Laird is loan and all came in this summer.
Patterson could go on to have his best season. He has scored a maximum of 6 and already has 4 to his name and some real classy efforts. |  |

Isn't it a shame that the usual suspects mainly only comment on other posters' posts. It's as if they are unable to conjure an original thought.
A thread on a Stunning performance and result, yet some choose to have a dig at other posters instead of contributing to a healthy discussion about our tactics, set-up, players etc. Stunning indeed.

Yep,they'll be queuing up.I see lifelong lurking;a nice guy but one sadly baffled by my esoteric sense of humour. He doesn't matter nor do I ;it is all about the club.
It prospers and I can be wrong every minute of the day and I d be happy.
After a good win,you can be guaranteed the likes of Lifey,Treforus etc will be seeking out posters they hate to try to rubbish them. Absolute crepe of course as we are all of the same cloth,like it or not. Jacks are Jacks wherever they live and however they live and how long they live.
I was thinking of my own late father at final whistle .A difficult man and one who was incredibly confrontational and not one to cross either with a vitriolic temper,Christian or not. He hated Cardiff City like nobody else Ive met. My ol girl used to tut a lot after games.

It's a pity a few on here are still incapable of earning that right, so instead choose to lash out at others. Most especially post midnight. There's a pattern with those two.
