  1. He certainly influenced the game, He is a complete pain for the opposition. Made me laugh that when Sara was lining up his free kick, Barnes kept deliberately standing in the way of the Cov keeper when he was trying to line up his wall. Sure it didn’t make a difference to the wall but can guarantee it was winding up and distracting the keeper and the defenders.
  2. I agree with this. he is obviously a talented and intelligent player (combination many don’t have) but for some reason it isn’t just clicking at the moment. Not sure why, but probably as playing in wrong position or in wrong formation . He certainly doesn’t seem to be the type of winger Wagner actually wants them to play. I've said before that id be tempted to try him more central in the number 10 position. Especially now it appears that actuality isn’t Sara’s best position. Ironically he probably needs a run of games but unfortunately the odd appearances he is making don’t justify that. I’m not giving up on him yet.
  3. Many won’t agree but I think he’s better than Rowe! Rowe’s been brilliant this season but he’s a bit hot and cold. I think Sainz has more skill and is an all round better player.
  4. It is weird how in all these welcome videos Hanley shows absolutely no enthusiasm or friendliness to the new players. I get it he is a showing it on the pitch with determination type captain but he doesn’t seem very inspiring or welcoming to someone new to the club.
  5. I’ve long been a critic of Kenny and for last few seasons have used the fact that our failure to upgrade on him has been a key reason for our failure. but even I have to admit that he has been really good this season and most definitely our most consistent performer. At the moment he should definitely win POTS. But I still hope that one of our more dynamic players can have a brilliant end to the season ie Sargent, Rowe or Sainz. If that happens I think we could be in the playoffs. If not we will be a bog standard championship team. It will then seem perfectly fitting for the POTS to be Kenny. A decent upper championship player who is a very good if unspectacular player.
  6. I'm travelling down with 3 Coventry supporting mates so absolutely desperate for a win or it's going to be a long 3 hours driving back. Heart say 2-0 victory for us but head says they are playing well so could see reverse of that.
  7. I'd guess it's a possibility if the board/Knapper have actually had the balls to tell him he wont be here after this season.
  8. Must admit the PR team doing a good job with the promotion of him. Some nice little interviews and seems like a decent chap. Pleasing that his one word description of himself is social as hoping that means he will settle quickly. Bit worried I’m getting excited about a player who I haven’t even seen play (hopefully he’s the new Pukki rather than RVW!)
  9. Weird that we couldnt have got him as part of the Idah deal?
  10. Actually changed my mind......spends his whole career at Norwich. Single handedly dragging them into becoming an established premier league team. At the end of his career Rowe states that he was inspired by Messi and realised he wouldnt be a footballer without Norwich so always felt he owed it to them to stay and always knew he would never leave (well at least after they got rid of that numpty Wagner and brought Farke back!). We can but dream!
  11. Agree on need for CDM/cover (although actually NEED a CDM). I think Nunez/McLean/Fastnacht could easily cover Sara as AM. Indeed, I think Rowe or Sainz could do the role but somewhat differently. Its one of the most frustrating things about this team and/or Wagners selection/tactics - I think we have a very decent number of attacking players but seem intent on not making the most of them.
  12. I'm not so sure that is true. Both Celtic and Rangers fans are quick to change from adoring to hating a player with venom (much worse than Norwich fans). If he shows the same lack of enthusiasm and effort and misses some easy opportunities like he has done in numerous games for us then he will be in big trouble. A half hearted performance in the Rangers/Celtic game alone would make him an instant target of derision by their fans. I think it's quite a risk for him (and us if he 'fails' and gets sent back).
  13. Yep, and even a broken clock is right twice a day!
  14. Although weirdly not so true when it came to buying (at least when it came to spending decent money (Tszolis, Rashica, Normann etc)
  15. Might be harsh but this is my fear as well. He's never really stepped up here and I doubt he will do it in half of a season where he has the added complications of settling in a new country. I'd be happy to sell him now but wouldnt risk a loan with an option to buy.
  16. I’d gladly be one short up front for rest of season if we can find a sucker to take Idah off our hands. Saves us giving him millions over next few years on that ridiculous contract
  17. It does seem mad that we are trying to encourage a youngster to sign but haven’t put him on bench for game v Liverpool rather than a keeper. surely a chance to say you mean a lot to this club and we trust you?
  18. Not a great team but shows how weak the squad is. I suppose that Barnes, Hernandez and Fassnacht should put in a shift defensively. …..clutching at straws!
  19. Really good performance that. Decent tackling and chasing and some nice pass and movement. Can we actually keep it up for the whole game for once??
  20. Every time I have a bit of hope we are moving forward, Wagner ruins it. Why do Nunez and McCallum get dropped no matter how well they play? Why do Barnes and Gibson get played no matter how rubbish they’ve been?
  21. My grans a better option than Hernandez and she’s dead! (only partly joking 🙃)
