A must not lose game similar to the Sunderland game too. I think we will be unchanged but possibly Chamakh in for Jerome depending on his fitness and how he's trained this week.

Obviously that old adage, don't change a winning team but we will have a different ethos to the game vs Chelsea. Plus Chamakh is back and prior to the Chrlsea game most were in agreement that he was sorely missed. I personally think we will keep the same team. KG and Ledley deserve to retain their positions. I do however believe that we will need more attacking instincts against Cardiff. If we invite them forward we will eventually get punished. Thoughts?

I think its a must win game for Cardiff but a point would be acceptable to us. They have to attack us from the off. If we can soak up 90 minutes of pressure from Chelsea, 93 from Newcastle then I don't see Cardiff having anything to trouble us if we perform to our best. I would keep the same team except play Chamakh instead of CamJam. And I can see us nicking this one 0 1 (although I'd take a point right now if offered)

I personally think it's a definate no lose match for Cardiff so they will be more inclined to be pushing forward more than usual. I think to adopt a similar strategy as the Chelsea game will hopefully provide us with a few chances. I'd definately make sure Wardy covers Wilf and that should stop the supply of balls to Bellamy. That's my main concern. This.We'd be delighted with a point, cardiff would feel they're doomed if they don't get all three so they will be all over us like a cheap suit which, as long as we don't concede early, will play right into our new counter-attacking with pace hands.

I think Pulis will keep the same starting XI as on Saturday. Personally though, I think if Chamakh were fully fit I'd swap him for KG. Let Ledley drop in next to Jedinak as he covers Ward and Mariappa well when they go forward. I think Chamakh's finishing could be the difference for us. That being said I can't see him being fit to start quite yet after the injury, hence why I say I think Pulis will keep it unchanged.

I still find it quite incredible that Caulker, Cardiff's CB has scored 5 goals. Which is 1 goal behind our top scorer Chammers aha

I tentatively suggest, that with a young inexperienced (in the prem) manager and a demanding home crowd that its possible the Cardiff team could lose their heads altogether if we score first. Might even get our biggest win of the season. However if we concede early we could really struggle. Its on a knife-edge. I back us.
