Moylan the right player for Cardiff - Barry-Murphy

[Huw Evans Picture Agency] Brian Barry-Murphy says Jack Moylan is the right profile of player for Cardiff City at present following his impressive league bow for the club against Wrexham. The central midfielder - who signed a four-year deal after joining from Lincoln City earlier this month - played the duration of the 1-1 draw with Phil Parkinson's side on Monday night. And while Barry-Murphy has promoted several of the club's academy players since becoming boss in the summer of 2025, the Irishman says he has no concerns over a potential lack of Championship experience within his ranks. "We're very pleased with our own players and we try and bring in the best players we can for this club," said Barry-Murphy. "We brought Jack Moylan in, who has zero Championship experience. "But he's the right player for us at our club at this time and we'll continue to try and do the best thing for the club and the supporters." Dylan Lawlor, Will Fish and Calum Chambers were among those to miss the draw with Wrexham through injury. Barry-Murphy also revealed he had not wanted to bring goal scorer Rubin Colwill off the bench as early as he did given the Wales international's struggles with an ankle injury during pre-season. And while the 48-year-old is eager to further bolster his ranks prior to the 23:00 BST transfer deadline on Tuesday, 1 September, the Cardiff boss is not in a rush to get deals over the line. "It's obvious we're looking to add to the squad," he said. "We are quite stretched at the moment in that position because the players are from the same area of the team. Dylan, Will, Calum Chambers. "That doesn't change our strategy, but it means we probably looked more stretched than we probably are."
