Sure Cardiff etc should all be in the Cymru Prem. Could easily qualify for European football. Plenty of money in that.

I'd love to see that, but I can't see that happening. Would take years to transition towards it, and I'm just not sure the owner or fans would be that interested in doing it It would be a tough thing to achieve, the fact Bilbao are a sustainable top flight club with that model is remarkable What you'd need is a very wealthy and totally onboard with the idea owner being able to bring in decent enough Welsh players whilst investing heavily in youth. Non Welsh youth players coming through that understand the club and have a certain pride about representing Cardiff City would be good enough I think. I did this on LMA Manager 2007 on the Xbox and I ended up dominating Europe with Lewin Nytanga becoming one of the best defenders in the World and John Oster becoming deadly into his 30's! Still am mate.

Didn't realise he also boxed in his spare time, shout out for retaining his belt last night vs Canelo.

Must admit the more I see of this boy, the more he looks a natural footballer.

I thought Colwill was excellent tonight. Very composed. I was also very impressed.
We did have an extra man in midfield though due to Page tactical change of going 4 at the back.

Must admit the more I see of this boy, the more he looks a natural footballer. Listened to game on radio. Helen Ward and Nathan Blake like him too. They don’t understand why he’s not a fixture in Cardiff’s first 11. Blake even said he probably got to leave Cardiff to advance.

How long can Cardiff keep hold of him, when he continues to shine at the intl stage??

I can’t understand why Cardiff persist with donkeys when they have this kid on the books. The more he plays the better he’ll get.

I thought the same seeing him against the Netherlands. He just is so comfortable on the ball.
Its wonderful seeing so many young talents shine in their own distinct way.
Just wish he had a bit more aggression / drive. Maybe he does and you do not see it but he seems to be a fantastic technical talent.

I think we can expect him to be a regular for Cardiff next season, he definitely was finding his feet still last season. Great that he's had 6 caps now, because it will put pressure on Morison to use him - which I think he will Seems like Morisons is making signings to make us a bit more solid all over the pitch, so that we have a platform for our forwards. Colwill can be the star of the show if he wants, he's got star quality hooky I agree he needs a bit more drive & needs to be busier in his play like Ramsey is

I think we’ve all seen now what Rob Page and his team saw in the training camps that led to his inclusion in the Euro 2020 squad.

The calls for Robson-Kanu, or Lawrence, or whoever it was at the time, all seem to have disappeared. Looks like Page doesn't deserve to be sacked at all. I'm glad we have a manager with the foresight to do what's best for the country

jimexotic maybe Morrison is trying no to put too much on him at a young age, look at wood burns situation 🤷🏻♂️ He's arguably Cardiff's best player, 20 years old and he's shining at international level, I think his situation is completely different to that of Woodburn's who has done absolutely nothing at club level for years.

What's up with Rubin? Injured or just not fancied by Morrison? Not in the match day squad today🤔🤔

The Welsh kids are the only reason I have any interest in Cardiff. There's potential at that club to do brilliant things with Welsh players and in turn do brilliant things for Welsh football but they seem intent on messing it all up.

Shame to see them lose so badly with so many Welsh boys playing. Doesn't bode well for their standing in the squad!

I think I've given up on Cardiff for this season, hopefully Isaak and Rubin can get out of their within the next three weeks.
