  1. Cantwell will be gone, as will Rachica as a minimum. Giannoulis will be gone as well I’d have thought.
  2. I thought that too. Rachica should have taken the shot and I think the pass took Pukki by surprise and gave the defenders the chance they needed to close him down.
  3. Oli Johnson scored this evening for Bradford PA.
  4. I see after a difficult start Matthew Dennis is banging the goals in for Southend. It'll be interesting if he can take that form into League 2 or League 1 next season?
  5. The bonus of all the injuries is, if he has fully recovered he may well be able to play well into his kid to late thirties as he hasn’t worn his body out so quickly.
  6. Sinani seems to be getting better and better so I was wondering if (making the assumption we get relegated and Huddersfield don’t want him) whether he could do a job for us next season? I’d give him a go.
  7. I like Hernandez but the lack of game time over the last 2 seasons I thought he’d bulked up too much and lost some pace. Going out on loan was a gamble but if that means he comes back next season fit and confident then we have a decent player on our hands whatever league we’re in.
  8. As soon as Kenny came on we lost anticipation, early tacking and passing ability. As a result the team couldn’t get out of their half. Against better teams as we’ve seen they take advantage, luckily Watford were not good enough. The warning lights were there for all to see in one match.
  9. Individually Watford have better players than us they just don’t play as a team. Burnley are similar (from a stat point of view) they record very low figures but up until this season had done well for the quality of their individual players.
  10. I’d go for; Gunn Byram, Big Andy (if fit), Kabak, Giannoulis Rupp, Sorensen Tzolis, Normann, Placheta Rowe Subs Pukki Cantwell Sargent (if not on USA duty) Hanley Gibson Dowell Idah
  11. The key to our future prosperity is not to play Kenny. I think if we had a mix of midfield from: The starting three are from: Sorensen, Normann as definites. And one from PLM and Gilmore. Kenny has to be only considers if two of the above are up to their neck in plaster.
  12. ….. the chance of winning went at the same time. #notgoodenoughforpl
  13. Baring injury we’ll start with the team that began the Everton game. Score 2-1 Norwich
  14. They have billionaire owners so no comparison. Until some billionaire comes in for Norwich there is no point moaning about our self funding model.
  15. It’ll be Burnley I’d have thought. They have a gap in their squad after selling Chris Wood and he’s ideal for their style of football if they can keep him fit.
  16. No way. He’s on a huge salary and now Idah’s come to the party best not to hinder his progress. As previous contributors have said, 2 proper DM’s needed as a prioity.
  17. With Watford players on African nations duty, injuries and general knackeredness hopefully that will play into our hands if we play like we did against Everton.
  18. Even in the game yesterday Sorensen passed the ball out of defence to I think it was Pukki to put Idah in. Kenny doesn’t make those type of passes. That’s what I mean when I say meaningful passes. I notice Sorensen was doing this when he last had a run in the team and how refreshing it was to see. Kenny plays it safe, his general stats will be good but if you had a stat for footballing influence he would be really poor. Don’t get me wrong Kenny always give 100% so I have no issues from that point of view, he’s just not good enough for Norwich definitely at this level and I would say for us…at Championship level too.
  19. How many assists and goals had Kenny had since he joined? Not many. Kenny is a poor man’s Ray ‘the crab’ Wilkins. Pass completion is irrelevant if you’re just doing 5-10 yard passes. What would be a better measure would be meaningful passes, tackles lost that lead to goals, distance covered is irrelevant if you’re chasing the result of your poor tackle or pass. Plus the normal stats. If we looked at the two players on paper you’d perhaps have a different opinion. I feel Sorensen reads the game better, he has more of a footballing brain, he can see a forward pass and is strong in the challenge. He’s a far more accomplished player. His only downfall is he’s not the quickest but if you can read the game well then you can move your position to compensate.
  20. Kenny can’t tackle and Kenny can’t pass in an attacking sense….just to name two attributes.
  21. Once Norman is back he’ll give our midfield more vision to create as well.
  22. I’ve been advocating seeing Sorensen to be given a run at DM and he looks like he is beginning to come good. What I’ve also been advocating (ever since I first saw him play for Norwich) is that Kenny is not good enough for Norwich. Coincidence or not, Sorensen plays, Kenny doesn’t and Norwich look like a PL team. Most of us agree if we can sort the DM position out this will stiffen the defence, allow the full backs to bomb forward thus making us more dangerous going forward. This along with a tweaking of formation that suits Idah allowed Idah to look like the PL player we all hoped he would be. Well done boys, that performance was excellent.
