So I will start this rant off by saying, I'm not a Norwich fan, nor am I anti Norwich in any way.
There is a few things that have really frustrated me about watching Norwich this season as a neutral, particularly after the restart.
How has somebody within the club, principally Farke, not identified that they are shipping goals left right and centre from completely avoidable situations. I'm talking about them playing a style of football that can only be played with top quality ball playing centre backs. It doesn't take a genius to see that week in week out they are conceding avoidable goals, trying to play out from the back, losing the ball in their own final third 5,6,7 or 8 times a game and conceding 2 goals from the resulting chances. This might be a viable game plan if the times they didn't lose the ball from the back they were linking into midfield

How has your man in charge not at least tried a different style of play and how has he avoided being absolutely slated for his lack of invention and belief. Watch him on the side line, he has looked

The covid break was a real opportunity for Norwich, they could have come back with 9 games to play and set up for 9 cup finals, instead they have come back without any new invention and no real belief. As a fan of football I would have had more respect for them if they had come back and at least tried to be hard to beat, set up tight at the back, men behind the ball, kicking for position if they are under the cosh and then looking to set pieces, Cantwell, Puuki or Buendia as an outlet.
I write this as a goalkeeper who played at a decent level, of course I'm not assuming to know better than Prem players and managers but something just baffles me about Norwich's PL campaign this year. I'm watching them and thinking if my CB's were losing the ball trying to play out from the back week in and week out at even a semi pro level I would have murdered one of them by now, full Brucey Grobelaar moment would ensue. Cannot understand how a keeper of Kruul's experience hasn't tore his hair out with this set up in front of him.
Would you rather play 'attractive' football in the championship or play 'ugly' football in the prem? seems Norwich and Farke stuck to their guns and have inevitably shot themselves in the foot.
Would love to hear from some Norwich fans, as I cannot understand how the mood around the club can be anything other than disappointed.
