Taffin Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Delighted for him. I didn't think he'd cut it at that level. Although, in fairness I didn't think he'd end up as a striker for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazzas right boot Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Folk using the "He's an Epl player " phrase allot. Glen Murray and sol bamba are also Epl players as is Augeuro, the scope is quite wide so not sure what that means and why folk use it to justify an opinion. Cardiff got promoted, so clearly he becomes an Epl player. He's been one since August. He's surprising me with his goals, not only that, important goals. He's doing a cracking job and with his age and versatility he'll do anyone a turn. Obviously a cracking guy as well to have around. I'll stick with my opinion that he's limited technically (although his first time finishing is fantastic...) so will will stay lower half or top championship level. Still hell of a career and hopefully one big move in him for £10m + which is pennies down there. If Cardiff go down, he'll stay there, if they stay up you can't help but think they'll buy a few £20m players including strikers and he move down the pecking order or become their jack of all trades person from the bench. I just hope he doesn't go to Celtic in the future. Always had a feeling him and Souttar will end up there. ? He is an Epl player, but still not sure what that means and why folk are using it, like it ends all debate and justifies thier opinion.

If Cardiff go down then another Prem club (probably a team moving up from Championship) will 100% buy him. A striker who can score 10 goals in EPL (assuming he will at current ratio) is worth his weight in gold to a bottom half team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another team (s) I dunno let's say Brighton/ Bournemouth want him... Ideal scenerio for us and him. He'll Likley end up on about £60k a week and it would be a £15m + move.

People say it because of the number of tedious posters that said "never an EPL player" when at Hearts, when in the Championship and even earlier this season, especially when he was briefly out of the starting 11. The point being that all those that confidently predicted he would never get a game in the EPL were wrong. Those who predicted he would play in the EPL were right, so in that sense it does justify their opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether he's a good Epl player, a poor one etc is up for debate, but he is an Epl player, as his his team mate Sol Bamba and guys like Salah. No matter, the boy is doing well.

Seems a bit of a dull thing to go on about and still makes no sense. Yip, he's a decent Epl player for Cardiff atm. No doubt. No sure why that's up for debate. If Cardiff don't make it in the Epl, not sure where that would take the debate, by default it would mean their team is not Epl standard? Interesting times ahead? This thread could take a few twists and turns yet, but atm he is an Epl player, of that there is no doubt.

DVB Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 When Callum wasn’t in the team at the start of the season they had technically better players but were a much worse team. When Cardiff play to their strength Callum is a big asset due to his ability to get flick ins and sniff out a goal. I struggle to think of another team who plays in that fashion so would be surprised if he moved for big money. I also think he needs to find a settled position personally I would play him as a CAM.

I think people really appreciated that especially. He went with my very best wishes. If only all players could be more Callum. Maybe he’ll also do a Berra and come back home sometime.

Cardiff getting promoted was only one factor. He then had to retain his place in the team and make an impact to be an EPL player. He has flourished, scored in a number of games now and yesterday he was the match winner. If he was on the bench or in the stand nobody would be claiming that he was an EPL level player. It is that combination, Cardiff getting promoted and him being part of their recent resurgence that backs up this statement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been watching their forum for sometime and tbh there are snippets of positivity about CP, however most of the posts are negative about Scottish football - So screw them and their superiority complex, they are lucky to have Callum and we are lucky to have a sell on clause.

Calebs Grandad Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Callum is an example for many young players out there. His parents left Zimbabwe as they no longer felt safe and moved to London where he was born. The family along with his mums sisters family moved to Edinburgh where he grew up. Both his mum and auntie took Callum and his cousin Michael Travis the Forfar captain to Tae Kwon Doe classes as youngsters and I’m fairly certain the boys both achieved black belts. He has been with his girlfriend since school days. To describe any pro footballer as grounded and level headed these days is a rarity but CP fits that bill perfectly. Polite, well mannered, dedicated and confident are just a few of the traits this guy possesses and it’s little wonder Hearts supporters feel huge pride watching Callum progress at the top level.

I wish Neilson had played him up front more when we lost Sow, even though he would have got pelters for it. Same with Locke. Anyhow, it's not all attitude with Paterson, you can't play in the EPL and not be a good footballer. His goal reel shows he's got good technique as well as being a big physical daftie.

You were garbage against Cardiff. Finding it tough in the big time despite all that spending eh? in Warnock we trust. p.s.
