In Malky we Trust

BLUEBIRDS’ boss Malky Mackay has now three of his small squad out on loan with Nat Jarvis is currently playing for Newport County, while Aaron Wildig has joined Shrewsbury Town on loan. Now Dekel Keinan has join Palace and  there is no news on Ibrahim Farah heading to Northampton which would make it four. Is there room for any more to go out on loan before anyone comes in the other way.

In Malky we trust

There are reports in the press that Mackay was unhappy that Keinan announcing the pending deal with Palace via his Twitter account before any official announced. The Cardiff boss has also made in clear no big name arrivals will join in January transfer window so that ends the speculation of Carlos Tevez coming out of retirement and joining the Bluebirds.

Reading between the lines of his big interview with the South Wales Echo he would rather buy than loan, but the loan options will not be closed. Mackay said he expects to have money to spend, but that will depend on the club’s billionaire backer, Malaysian businessman Vincent Tan. I hope we do go along the line of buying it is the best way of building a squad than have a team of loan players, two or three is a good number. So far Mackay has brought in one season long loan signing Filip Kiss, but with an option to make it a permanent deal and he drafted in Aston Villa keeper Elliot Parish has an emergency deal to cover keepers David Marshall and Tom Heaton.

The squad is a still bit on the thin side and the emergency loan window closes on November 24 so he must be happy with what he has got until January at less.

Jon Parkin who has already enjoyed a spell at Doncaster and defender Gabor Gyepes will both have to settle for loan deals if they want a chance of first team football and most likely if they do go, it will be until the end of the season. The Keinan deal could well end up going that way if he is a hit at the London club.

Who will come in? Well to be honest it has been quiet on the transfer talk. There was a number of players rumour to be link to the club at the beginning of the emergency loan period. Will boss Mackay plum for another player he has connections to like a former Watford player or another Scot to add to the squad.
