Cardiff City are signing Aden Flint for just £6 million !

No doubt a load from this board will go into meltdown! Some wanted him for Prem last year!

Why would we have a meltdown? This isn't TIFF.  064.gif
Stand up if you still believe!

It's been mentioned with Sessegnon that we're after a player in Spurs' deal.

Players reportedly available are Cameron Carter-Vickers, Wanyama, Edwards, Onomah, Nkoulou and Janssen.

I'm assuming it would be one of the youth players that Parker rates from his time with their u18s.

Players who play for Middlesborough can easily afford to live in delightful spots nearby, such as Yarm.

I don't suppose many Liverpool players live in Toxteth or off Scottie Road.

He's right though. If we're aiming to play slightly more direct this year and actually have a decent defence, Flint would have been perfect, and available now, in time for the half our pre-season, at a good price. I'm highly sceptical that we'll do any better.

See, I told you there was a Aden Flint appreciation society.

Must say that Cardiff & Brentford's recruitment of proven centre halves, who are leadership types at reasonable prices appear to be good business
Our problems still appear to be the defensive part of our team (defence & midfield) - these are the types of recruitment I would have liked for our Championship season!

Cardiff are going to do really well this season. Had a really good Championship standard squad already and they've added to it. Automatic promotion for anyone who finishes ahead of them.
Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Are Cardiff or Huddersfield more attractive than us? Not by a long shot. So why can they get CBs in and we dont seem to be able to?

Totally agree that we would be the most attractive option out of the three. Flint doesn't fit into our recruitment model for some reason. He's 30, so it could be down to his age. Don't know or understand why we can't sign players like him.

I'm sure Cardiff and Huddersfield fans said similar things when we signed Mawson. I know that the Burnley boards were in meltdown mode.

I'm pretty certain that a CB is high on the list of priorities and I'd be surprised if we didn't sign anyone.

I'm not entirely convinced by Cardiff, but they won't be far off playoffs at a minimum. I don't see them challenging top 2.

Location wise we are much more attractive.
We have arguably the best striker in the league.

Maybe players are scared to join fulham in a defensive role after how bad we were defensively last year.
