Cardiff City manager Omer Riza believes a more "aggressive" mindset has been key to their unbeaten run which has revived their bid for Championship survival. Cardiff beat relegation rivals Derby County 2-1 on Saturday to make it eight games without defeat in all competitions.

After a dismal first half, City took the lead shortly after the hour courtesy of Callum Robinson’s 11th goal of the season, before substitute Anwar El Ghazi quickly tucked away a second.

Cardiff City are hopeful of making further signings this week, with Ajax midfielder Sivert Mannsverk the latest player to be linked. The Bluebirds have only brought in one player so far, striker Yousef Salech from Swedish side Sirius.

Cian Ashford's recent breakthrough under Omer Riza has been exceptional - but why did it take so long for the winger to get a run in the side?
