Did we not bring in a new young coach a few months ago?

Do the boo boys believe they are helping our club?
Number9 replied to Rhino1's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Last season it was called a disconnect, maybe just apathy? Things are likely to change medium term when Attanasio takes over but it feels like we're treading water until then. Just strange times. -
What an earth is knapper waiting for ?…

Number9 replied to Sufyellow's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
The keeper will pause with the ball at his feet so as to bait an attacker, this then creates an unmarked player for the keeper to pass to & subsequently beat the press. That's the theory anyhoo, unfortunately our players aren't proficient enough to pass accurately & Waggers has set the team up for counter attacking so it's not working. Our goals currently rely on an individual player having a worldie & that's obviously not sustainable. Has Wagner been sacked yet? -

I wasn't in the building so wasn't privy to conversations between Webber & Farke. I have had a few conversations with Farke & base my opinion of him on them. -

Your comments about the size of the playing squad are refreshing Parma. Too often I hear Farke referred to as a manager who had no funds at his disposal & was sent to war with no bullets. Truth be told he bought many, many players. I'd have loved that money to have been spent on fewer, better quality players who would have improved the first team and made a difference. -
You're all getting worked up about a report of the highlights of a presser. It may bear very little relevance to what was actually asked & answered anyway. Anyone who has taken the time to listen to Wagner will appreciate the absolute **** he normally speaks, so it could easily have been "we're gonna play five at the back against Rovers"

Madam surely protests too much...

Surely Wagner will keep his fave players & get rid of the ones he doesn't play so much or criticises in the media. So.... Onel, Fasnacht, & Kenny stay, Rowe, Macullam & Fisher to leave.

Always fist on the team sheet.

Surely you recognise that the records scientists hang their hats on only go back as far as 1850ish. For thousands of years prior to that, world temperatures have risen and fallen quite dramatically but records weren't made. If you're considering Hemsby for instance, why preclude Eccles from your data, yes it happened a long while ago so it doesn't fit the activists argument today, but village's have been lost to the sea historically, not just in your lifetime. This has happened around the world too, there's much which raises questions regarding the climate change theories. Have you stood on the west coast & wondered about the sea going out so far & land being reclaimed? Are you asking government why tidal surge power generation hasn't been built offshore at Hemsby to protect the coastline and provide virtually free power 24/7? Too much politics and vested interest are involved in climate change I'm afraid.

In hindsight how good were Southampton?

So if I understand you correctly, because we're not on that list & we keep getting beat, our manager is one of the best in the world? -
Sorry bout that 😬

I really enjoy reading & thinking about your posts Parma, considering carefully your logic & mindset which obviously comes from some experience & knowledge within the game. If I may be so impudent, this post seems somewhat unwieldy and could be distilled into a couple of key points (In my opinion) Numbers 9, 18 & 20 - Player recruitment, why? Just why did we bring in the players we currently have? Number 19 - Idah, his development & deployment. Numbers 1-8, 10-18 - What adjustments to team setup & in game management do you feel are necessary to achieve our stated aims in terms of playing style & League position? -
We are in Div 2

So you think it's no more expensive to extend your football stadium in London than Norwich? You really believe that?
-
Do some research & become certain. I'll give you a starting point, Why do so many people live outside London and commute to work there?
-
Why wouldn't you buy a younger player who score goals instead?
-
Very difficult to compare between cities like London, Liverpool and Norwich. It costs less to purchase the site here, sort out issues like Carrow Road, and lots less to pay contractors, buy concrete etc etc.

I would suggest that you do lose something quite important by playing McLean, the ball! Giving the ball away so frequently and being out of position so much of the time is a huge problem. As is the psychology aspect, surely the other ten players on the pitch are pretty pissed when they're busting a gut yet he constantly has his hand in the air for yet another mistake. I would be, hey I am ; I'm not running several K, I'm just sat watching it.
