"Stevenage away, people would say it was a tough place and they'd just keep loading the ball on top of us. It wasn't a pretty game, but we dug in well and our quality showed at the end with Cal [Callum Robinson] coming on and scoring a great finish. The belief is that as long as you do the hard stuff and the dirty stuff, that teams are going to try and bully us, then our football will show and we'll win the game."
"Everyone's going to have their own way of playing and that's credit to them. They [Stevenage] are near the top of the league for doing that well. But we can't play like that it's not us. We've got a group that would probably struggle to play like that, if we were like that we'd be towards the bottom of the table."
Cardiff City sit four points clear at the top of League One while aiming to return to the Championship. Head coach Brian Barry‑Murphy has implemented an adventurous, possession-based style and built a squad around young players and academy graduates. Cardiff overcame a direct, physical Stevenage side with a hard-fought 1-0 away win, Cal Callum Robinson scoring after coming on. Midfielder Ryan Wintle says the team accepts doing the hard and dirty work when needed, but will not adopt an abrasive style and will instead play in a way that gets the best from the squad.
