Joe Ledley says Cardiff City transfer miss was a ‘big blow’ as he makes prediction about Celtic signing
The former Cardiff and Celtic midfielder has spoken about the Bluebirds’ current plight
Former Cardiff City star Joe Ledley has said the Bluebirds missing out on Kieffer Moore last month was a “big blow” but admitted he is a big fan of new addition David Turnbull.
The Bluebirds limped towards the winter window and, despite making five signings right at the end of the window, Erol Bulut’s side still look disjointed and are increasingly incoherent on the pitch.
They now have just one win in their last eight games following Tuesday night’s bore draw with Blackburn Rovers, while their goalscoring record is painfully low and is further fuelling the supporters’ ire.
Cardiff’s strikers have been poor this season. Kion Etete, Yakou Meite and Famara Diedhiou have three league goals between them all season and while the sole blame cannot be laid at their door — the quality of chances they are feeding off is not up to scratch — that record is still nowhere near good enough. Diedhiou, of course, has played only five games in a City shirt.
Ledley believes missing out on Wales striker Moore, who on Tuesday night netted his fourth goal in five games after sealing a loan move to Ipswich Town from Bournemouth on deadline day, was a big disappointment.
“The big blow for Cardiff was missing out on Kieffer Moore,” he said on the Sportin Wales podcast.
