Bobby Reid

Reid joined Cardiff for around £11.3m from Bristol City in the summer after netting 21 goals in all competitions for his previous side last season.

He has struggled to hold down a regular starting role in the Premier League but put in a great display to net a match-winning brace against Bournemouth last weekend.

His pace and trickery proved a real danger for the Cherries’ defence to handle and they were caught off-guard by him shortly into both halves of the game.

The 26-year-old seemed to be revelling in filling the role of the late Emiliano Sala and feeding off the fans emotional tributes towards the Argentine.
