Cardiff City's forgotten man, Willo Flood, is linked in today's news with a move to Championship rivals Southampton.
The 23 year old Dubliner, a midfieler cum wideman, was signed by Dave Jones for a reported £200,000 from Manchester City in 2006 but never set the world alight at Ninian Park. At 5'6" and weighing well under 10 stone, he looked as lightweight at his stats would suggest and that was the reason Man City let him go too. He only started 5 games for Cardiff but had plenty on appearences off the bench.
However, few can fault his battling qualities and he is returing to Cardiff City for a very successful season on loan at Scottish Premier side Dundee UInited where he feated in a Cup Final and became a favourite. The Tangerines, though, don't have the funds to finance a permanent deal and with Flood out of the picture at City, odds are that he will move on before the new season starts. The Saints would apper to be a good opportunity for him.
