We asked Cardiff City fans who they would like the club to sign as the Bluebirds prepare for life back in the Championship, with boss Brian Barry-Murphy saying they will be looking for quality rather than quantityin the transfer market.
Here are some of the responses:
Adrian: It’s great the youngsters coming through. But in the Championship they need some players with experience. Short at left and right-back and need a couple of strikers. Let Callum Robinson go as he could hardly get a game in League One. Also let Callum Chambers go, he is past his best.
Andrew: Sort who our number one goalkeeper is. Whether Nathan Trott or another. Central defence cover as well as central midfield. More help up front for Yousef Salech and Robinson.
Paul: City need to stick to all the youngsters we have, this season has been the most enjoyable for many years because of our style of play and the fact that we have an almost entirely UK squad. We know the player’s backstories and it is great to see who progresses. Next season is not about whether we are fighting at the top or bottom, it is about a club with a heart and a connection with the fans.
Russell: In my opinion we need a winger to supply Salach, the ones we have – apart from Cian Ashford – are like vampires… don’t like crosses. Also we need someone who can chip in with 10 or 15 goals. A creative midfielder would be good to push us forward rather than tippy-tappy around the opposition’s box.
David: I agree with Iwan [Roberts]. The Championship is tough with many quality teams and whilst we have a great bunch of young talent, we will need more experienced players who are proven in this league. I am also sure our manager will rise to the challenge too and create a squad good enough for play-offs. Can’t wait!
Andrew: Lorent Tolaj from Plymouth, Jaden Wareham from Exeter and Reading’s Lewis Wing.
