    Fabio is a drogs legend .He is one of our longest serving players who puts in 100 % every time. He scored 16 goals last season despite being sidelined with a broken jaw for a couple of months..

    Heary, Cahill and O'Brien would walk onto most sides in the league. By eircom League standards, quality players.

    Suprised no-one has mentioned Zayed. Always thought he was fairly muck and he was found out when he went to drogheda
    I'd love to invent a time machine then go back in time and win the lottery, buy new players and a stadium. Time machines are brilliant aren't they- Ian Holloway

    Jury's out I'd say. He has a lot to prove this year.

    Zayed is total muck. Can't see him doing much this season to be honest.

    Thats his biggest handicap. When he misses a couple of chances (especially in bigger games) his head drops & virtually no chance he'll score then.

    He makes some awful howlers as well - more than once I've seen him miss open goals. It's all very well when the team is built around you and you bang in lots of goals over the course of a full season but I can't see the friendly Cardiff fans giving him many chances unless he hits the ground running.

    Kevin Hunt had a terrible season last year as he had alot of problems both personal and with the spoofer but on his day he is one of the best players in the league.

    IMO he is under-rated by many City fans. A few high profile mistakes aside he was excellent last year & better than Premiership rated Bennet. Has become a proper capatain on the pitch & chipped in with 5-6 leagues as well as crucial CL away goal.

    Underrated IMO. Especially by our own fans. People dont realise how important he is. I just pray he doesnt get injured.

    Fantastic last year and our player of the year-prone to the odd howler but generally makes up for them, and chips in with the goals too
