It is no secret that Cardiff City's January transfer window was a disappointment to those inside the club and fans looking in from the outside.
Three managers in the dugout, a frustrating transfer ban and a last-minute scramble saw just one player, Sory Kaba, join the Bluebirds in a month when they needed to bolster considerably in order to boost their chances of Championship survival.
There were, of course, mitigating factors for that, but January's business is all done now. Cardiff can only add in the free agent market and that is always a gamble.
