Third of the way into the transfer window!
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Indy's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
This will probably be the extent of our activity. Another young lad with "potential" who's potential we'll never get to see. Been there so many times but that's the only pond that we can afford to fish in. -
Thoughts?

Well he is the wrong side of the ball 😬 -

Yep, as long as he doesn't have to win a header or tackle anyone -

To be fair though, he's not as bad as Greg Downes 😆 -

Consider yourself lucky, Radio Norfolk have Cedric Anselin commentating -
To get out of this mess we are going to have to rely on a manager with the ability to bring in young up and coming talent. I think Frank Lampard would be a terrible choice but someone with connections to the big clubs where we can borrow ones they have or get the best of those not quite ready would be a sensible route to go.

Kenny McLean is a liability
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Rich T The Biscuit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I was being sarcastic, clearly scoring a goal is a positive but I'd have preferred we didn't concede 3. My point being that if people think that this outweighs his inept ability to protect our back 4, then we have a bizarre set of fans. -

Exactly this 👍 -

Well I guess his kind of assist to the goal will give us a benefit of 1 less goal in the GD column. Guess that makes up for it then, well done Kenny, you're the man. -

Who claimed parity 🤷🏻♂️ They would be UEFA A qualified, sadly I'm only UEFA B. Appreciate on this discussion board trying to be factual or logical or putting some logic to an opinion isn't the done thing, so maybe next time I'll act like others and just rant or just mock those that don't agree with those that know everything. -
Tactical ineptitude: midfield shambles
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Petriix's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Agree, but it shouldn't happen. When you play a system with full backs pushing on its even more important that one of the central midfielders sits between the 2 centra halves and they make a 3. We don't do that hence why as you said we get so exposed. -

Not that it's relevant but plenty thanks. I was also intelligent enough to be able to see positions that players aren't their best as it's really not hard once those rose tinted glasses are removed 😉 -
Kenny McLean is a liability
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Rich T The Biscuit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Sounds like you think he's not at fault? Of course I watch others, Sara gives it away to much, Giannoulous gets caught out of position to much, Hernandez has one way if playing that is obvious to the anyone with a brain, well maybe a football one anyway. I don't watch football with rose tinted glasses on and as "captain" he needs to lead from the front, he doesn't do that and he causes a lot of the problems we have. Someone commented about when Skipp was here, he was a proper DM so allowed McLean to play with less to think about, now he has to think, he's struggling. -

And the next manager will find himself in the same situation unless that manager realises that he is not a defensive midfielder, him picking up the ball deeper than the centre halves is not his job and him being caught out of position continually causes a problem for the defence. If the next manager realises that then the manager will have more success. Playing McLean in there with someone who knows how to defend and knows how to hold position will make the side better. Stupidity is doing.the same things over and over and expecting a different result. -

And what's worse is that they tied him down to a long contract. Another Webber masterclass. -
Kenny McLean is a liability
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Rich T The Biscuit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
God help us. We were against 10 men and he was given so much space and time to play. Just a shame he can't be so productive against 11 with less time to pick his passes. -
Kenny McLean is a liability
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Rich T The Biscuit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Completey agree, but none of that matters when he makes one good run during the game then overhits the pass. Him playing in that area of the pitch is what has caused problems week after week because it leaves the defence so exposed. We've all said it a million times but getting a proper DM in this side would make such a difference. -

Yep but it's ok as Kenny was jogging back 👍 -
Kenny McLean is a liability
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Rich T The Biscuit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Running around lots is putting a shift in I agree but hardly any of it is productive. I bet he has the most amount distance covered in the team, means absolutely nothing though. -
Kenny McLean is a liability
Rich T The Biscuit replied to Rich T The Biscuit's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Not making him a scapegoat as they are all terrible but as skipper he should be leading. So many people fall into the trap of loving Kenny because of a point here and a fist pump there and always jogging around. Yes he's in great company as Sara and Nunez are no better but he gets away scott free from criticism. -
Being a qualified coach I spend a lot of time watching players rather than games and the guy is a liability. As a team we get so exposed to the fast counter because we have no solid defensive unit. The guy jogs about looking busy but there is no pace to his work. He tries to find little pockets but rather than bursting into the space and making himself an option he just jogs into it and then it's obvious. It needs pace in movement. Sara is no better but playing both together is a problem for the formation/shape that they try to play. Of course it's not his fault alone but produces so little that actually makes a difference.
