I have always defended Roy but I have had enough myself. We have absolutely no creativity in midfield. I’d just be happy to see any sort of a change at this stage. Those last 2 games have been horrific.

The problem is we are all presuming that Meyer and Camarasa would be able to make that difference. I have see enough of Meyer to tell me that he is not good enough for this league so then it’s Camarasa and we have no idea what is going on with him. I think he was just bought in case of emergency as we signed no one else.

So if it’s not those 2 who start who do you put in ? I honestly think Roy’s hands are tied at the moment because our squad is threadbare.

When I get frustrated I scream for changes but we actually have no one to make a difference.

True we don’t know if Max and Victor will make a difference, but we do know JS and JM2 don’t .. playing CK and Milo together kills the midfield.

Why the hell Roy didn’t have Wilf swap to the right today I’ve no idea. JA in a 451 he saw nothing of the ball .

Either go back to 442 or f it 352 with Tekkers and JA at least there may be a small chance of getting the ball in the box.

It's really odd because when looking at Roy with us last few seasons, he has used creative players on a regular basis but has totally changed his way of play this season.

When we had Cabaye and RLC, they played when they were available. But we certainly didn't have a better squad then, so it's a real puzzle why we are going so defensive.

I know there is an argument that Meyer and Camarasa might not be the answer/aren't good enough hence why they're not playing, but surely we need to give them an actual chance? They are not bad players at all - Camarasa was Cardiffs player of the season and Meyer has had glimpses of quality - but can't do anything if only given 15 mins every 5 games and then goes missing.

It's a shame Hodgson and the management above aren't connected at all. Clearly our transfer policy isn't reflecting what Roy wants.

It's incredible to see how many players in our 25 man squad have got under 5 appearances so far this season (not including GKs). Surely no other prem team is utilising such a small amount of players?

Apart from them in midfield we did have Milivojevic and McArthur but also an ageing Puncheon,Chung-Yong,Rakip,Mutch etc.It made perfect sense to play Cabaye and RLC when they were available.
