Points per game with Josh starting
Monty13 replied to dylanisabaddog's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
Not to knock him, because he’s a great team player, but goals is where they are incomparable. -

He’s our best player IMO, shades it over Sara for me. A striker who can score 25+ goals a season at this level (which he likely would have done if not injured) is unbelievably valuable. He really is a complete no. 9 at this level. I wouldn’t swap him with any other Championship striker personally. -
I think he’s suffered for years from not being a defensive midfielder when so many people want one on the pitch. Then because he’s the most defensively minded of our CMs he seems to get stick for not being a specialist. Where as Sara in comparison is a great player but far worse than Kenny defensively, Nunez is improving but ditto IMO. We have finally seemed to settle into a system that works defensively without a specialist DM though, at least at this level.

Wouldn't it be nice if...

This. Ipswich is objectively the team you want to play in the playoffs regardless of any other rival reasons. -

**** that, much rather stop them having a big day out at Wembley after beating them across two legs and have to sit at home while we are. That would be the perfect. -
I think many people have always been far too critical of the mistakes he makes compared to what he brings in terms of carrying the ball and his passing ability. I do think this season at times he’d looked just about as good as he ever has, yesterday being a case in point.

We need to talk about The System
Monty13 replied to Petriix's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
I’d add Kenny to those 4 and probably Stacy as well. Losing any one of those 6 on their current form could be enough to derail us. -

Why’s everything so black and white? Who actually thought our form was “nothing to do with the injuries”? The issue people were questioning wasn’t that we were worse because we had injuries, it was that we were so poor with a few key injuries we were producing relegation form. -
Goreham said it was due to a lack of match fitness that decision was taken, wasn’t clear if that was coaching team’s assessment or Hanley’s or both. Can’t say I disagree, he’s been rushed back and looks way off the pace.

Sargent unlikely to join up with USA team

This is excellent news. Keep him wrapped up in cotton wool unless he’s needed. Lose him and there goes any chance of promotion. -
Ian Wright; What a dunce
Monty13 replied to cambridgeshire canary's topic in Main Discussion - Norwich City
It’s a bit hamfisted but I get what Wright’s saying. Representing your country is meant to be an honour, but I guess for some of these guys it’s a low paid distraction. That’s a sad shame. -
What a fall from where he said he was headed if it happens, but this is definitely his level, he’s proved it. I wonder what he’s learnt. He’s a very good SD at this level if he could keep his ego in check.
