The 'Bluebirds' boss has expressed his satisfaction at the progress shown by his players in recent weeks, in spite of another loss this weekend; a 4-1 beating at the hands of title-chasing Liverpool.
It seemed as though Cardiff were in for a very long afternoon at Anfield, as Mo Salah gave the hosts the lead after only nine minutes. Yet the Welsh side stood firm, and kept their opponent's second goal at bay until the 66th minute.
Liverpool would add two more goals to their tally late on in the match, but the scoreline was more emphatic than the match would have suggested.
The result leaves Cardiff in 17th place, hovering precariously above the relegation zone, with only one win recorded in their first season back in the Premier League.
Yet boss Neil Warnock was happy enough with his side's display on Saturday, and claimed that the scoreline was not reflective of either side's performance in the encounter.
Cardiff manager Warnock spoke to 'Sky Sports' after the game about the defeat, explaining: "We are doing alright, we are playing alright. There were a lot of pluses again today. We only just had seven on the bench today. With what we have got, we are doing as well as we can."
He continued: "I think so [harsh result], but that is the level we are at at the moment, the quality of the finishers that they have got. It is disappointing because against Chelsea it was 4-1, and I don't think that reflected the game."
The 'Bluebirds' boss felt that his side just were not clinical enough against Liverpool, stating: "We just made the wrong decisions in the first half. We had a great six or seven opportunities when running into their half, but we made the wrong decisions. I said at half-time, we have got a chance if we get the next goal, but unfortunately we didn't do that."
Cardiff had a tough start to their return to the top flight, being pitted against Manchester City, Liverpool, Tottenham and Arsenal within their opening 10 matches of the season.
However Warnock now believes his team are on the other side of this tough run, and have a chance to get some wins on the board in their next two fixtures, against Leicster and Brighton.
Warnock explained: "We have played the top six now, and I think we only have Manchester United in December. We have had a tough run of fixtures really, but we have got better the last few weeks. The Burnley game we did well, the Tottenham game we did well, the Fulham game we did well - I am quite pleased."
He continued: "It is a pity we have a game like Liverpool after a good win over Fulham last week. It was like a free hit today against a team like Liverpool away from home. A lot of credit to the lads - they stuck at it."
