Erol Bulut delivers six-minute explanation on exactly what he’s trying to do with Cardiff City
The Bluebirds have lost their way of late, but manager Erol Bulut has explained exactly what he is trying to get his team to do
Cardiff City fans could be forgiven for scratching their heads over the last couple of months.
That sizzling early-season form which saw them rise as high as fifth in the Championship table back in October seems to have fizzled away at a steady pace over the last two months.
This season has offered more encouragement and positivity than the last two years combined — following horrendous back-to-back campaigns which included managerial merry-go-rounds and relegation battles — but supporters want to see a strong finish to the season to ensure there is a sound platform on which to build next term.

The Bluebirds have won just one game in their last eight, losing six of them. What has made that run worse is the woeful home form — Cardiff fans have not cheered a home goal since Boxing Day nor a home win since December 9 — and, pressingly, a lack of goals.
The Bluebirds come up against one of the very few teams who are in a worse run of form than them this weekend when they welcome Stoke City to Cardiff City Stadium and they need to put in a good performance in front of the home supporters.
During Erol Bulut’s early tenure at the beginning of the campaign, Cardiff played some decent football. They hurt teams on the outside and the likes of Ike Ugbo, a poacher-type striker, really, benefitted from turning home some chances which were put on a plate for him.
