Chopra set for shock Cardiff move
Michael Chopra is set to make a shock return to Cardiff City from Premier League Sunderland as a loan-signing and could play at QPR on Saturday.
Chopra, 24, is expected to be back at the Bluebirds for two months to help plug the gaps created by injuries to Jay Bothroyd and Ross McCormack.
The move is likely to spark speculation Chopra will return on a more permanent basis in the January transfer window.
Chopra joined Sunderland from Cardiff in July 2007 for £5m.

not sure if this is that big of a shock move to be fair, he's never really managed to cement a first team place at sunderland and with the competition of cisse, jones, diouf and even waghorn his first team chances were always going to be limited at sunderland. Don't get me wrong i like chopra he always gives 100% and i think he could score goals in the prem if playing in a system that suits him, i just don't think that he's particularly suited to the way we play, all the best to him.

Well that makes Cardiff better promotion contenders! Him and McCormack will be f*cking lethal.

i lovee him thingg is untill now he's done the most for the team this season and i still can't seem to understand why he wasnt put on against the Mags, you could tell he wanted to play and to be fair i think he deserved to. problem is now with cisse and jones getting better each game and especially with cisse becoming more consistent for us, he's kind of struggling to get a start and he's kinda of a fill in if you get me, he's not a consistent player. And everyone makes mistakes but sometime he decides to just sit back and you cant do that in the premier ship. but that's just my opinion.

Not that crap, he's scored a few good goals and he's rarely been played in position. We haven't really seen what he can do.
