    Just watched the video and noticed at the end there appears to be a reference to Norwich signing a Brazilian centre half called ADRYELSON.
    Is this old news or is there any truth in the rumour

    Im pretty sure he signed for Lyon a few weeks back.

    We really rode our luck, Bristol Rovers had some great chances. I'm afraid it's more of the same systemic issues with a few moments of quality rather than a coherent underlying plan. 

    In principle I was quite satisfied with the line-up because it moved Sara forwards and brought in an extra midfielder which I've been clamouring for. But we play with so much width and push the wide players so high that we still leave too much space in the centre of the pitch and end up wide open at times.

    I was really happy with Sara's involvement and I think there are some real positives from that second half, but this was a League One club. 

    Agreed. It seemed we looked better in the second half or when the introduction of Nunez came on. Wagner seems to be working on issues one at a time i.e. sorting the defence first and now trying to get us playing possession-based football again. We are just so woeful at keeping the ball and there are just constant individual mistakes. We really should be dominating possession against the likes of Bristol Rovers.

    Inept ? Really ? Two assists in the last two league games. He made immediate impact when he came on as a sub late in the game at Hull and that final ball for Fassnacht’s goal was superb. 

    Lets look at the bigger picture here please. Two assists for Onel in his latest outings fair play, but he does not consistently offer much. If people think Onel is a good enough first team option and we are going to progress with the likes of him in our first team, perhaps the fanbase is as deluded as the board are in terms of ambition.

    Love how he gets two assists in his previous two, then has a bad 45 and is back to being a a scapegoat

    Not really. It doesnt make him a good player for having two assists though does it. If you have a look at him and similar players of his ilk, they are never going to contribute enough on the pitch going forwards in order for us to progress. Not a scapegoat, as there are many players we have who should be sold and moved on.

    Enoch Powell said that all political lives end in failure. The same is mainly true of football managers if they hang around too long, with a few exceptions such as Ferguson and Wenger.

    Even if we could afford him, there's no way I'd want Mourinho here. He might have been the Special One at Porto, but he is now just another name on the merry-go-round, admittedly a higher level merry-go-round than the Steve Bruce one.

    There is only one Enoch I follow and thats Enoch Showunmi.

    To be fair I would be pretty annoyed if I was Wagner and no new signings arrive before deadline day. Hull have strengthened so have Boro. Say we finish 3 points shay of 6th place and he is then sacked. I feel he will be right to feel slightly letdown and essentially on a hiding to nothing.

    We will probably strengthen to some degree. Whom and how many remains a question mark. If I was Knapper I would of looked to conclude something early in the window to get fans on side, rather than radio silence which only raised concerns from fans. But its just the usual poor handling of matters as normal for little old Norwich.

    Hardly the young long term options knapper and Attanasio referred to at AGM

    I think the goal is obviously to lower the age of the squad, which will almost happen automatically when some older options are released at the end of the season. I'm not sticking up for anyone here, but it would just seem we dont have a pot to pi55 in currently and the only viable options are frees and loan additions. Hardly exciting times.

    With every passing day my optimism for signings wains.

    It's clear we need new blood in the team and Waggy clearly is not a fan of youth, but he might as well blood youngsters in the team now as oppose to continue with the dross we see week in week out, at least we Will identify them for next year.

    He is waiting for loan options to come available at the end of the window. I wouldn't expect anything imminently or otherwise, you may end up crying yourself to sleep.

    Wagner wants to win this replay, apparently. But he has dropped Josh Sargent.? What?

    Probably because he isnt fit to play 90 mins yet. Pointless risking him considering the bigger games coming up or otherwise we'll be back to square one again and relying on bit part players to score. We should have ample firepower without him in theory against lower league opposition...

    Conor Southwell suggested that the replay would be postponed until 4th round weekend if it doesnt go ahead.

    ...anyway, its only a frozen pitch get on with it, this isnt cricket

    If the pitch is frozen though it will interrupt our silky passing play...oh wait..we dont play like that. We should be fine.


  11. I see both angles on this. Play a strong team to gain momentum, despite important fixtures upcoming or play a weakened team in the hope of getting through. The only issue with that is not many fringe players have given a good account of themselves when theyve had the opportunity recently. Personally I would rather focus on the league and not risk injury to the first team XI.
