100% agree with that, the front four has to be this. And I'd start Vrancic next to Trybull on Monday.

A very classy goal to match his post-match comments.

This. Had a shaky start and some difficult moments in some mid-season games but has been an essential part of our 11 game unbeaten run, during which he's been excellent.

Oh my fukcing days😂!

What odds a brace from Dennis?

The latter. We haven't won a game he hasn't started apparently.

Unlucky not to be ahead. Confident we'll go on to win this but they do have quality and carry a threat.

Shouldn't you be checking the route map to Rochdale and Accrington? 😂

Hopefully settle us down now.

Leitner a little lacking in sharpness.

Hernandez has started poorly.

Think this could be a close game. Oh, to be 4 up by half time...!

Bend over, Baldy.

That would make tonight a lot more comfortable! Mind you I'm two double gins in already so whatever!

Has Waveney got a WACCOE account?

FtW's 'Delia moment'! Right behind you brother! COYY!

Try downloading an app called mobdro and see what you can find. It's on Sky main event.

The stats suggest it's all Leeds, but you never know. Would be hilarious if they lost!

Presumably he'd command a fee and the wages would be relatively high. Not sure he fits the current player acquisition profile even if we make it to the Prem, and he's not proven there. I think Webber and Farke would have hotter irons in the fire.

Pele doping around with it in midfield and getting dispossessed was what influenced the game. There might not have been contact with McGoldrick but there was intent so it was a foul and I reckon he would have got a shot off, so it was a goalscoring opportunity. I can see why the ref gave the card.

Yeah, we're done here I'm afraid.

I'd like them to lose obviously. Promotion is the aim here, not worrying about which will be stronger in the Prem - they'd be the least of our worries!

Forest competing quite well at the moment.

Stapleford Park Hotel, Melton Mowbray, May 2018. Stuart Webber, the Norwich City sporting director, Daniel Farke, the head coach, his backroom staff and 11 department heads decamped to Leicestershire for two days of what Webber describes as “brutal honesty”. Farke’s first season at Carrow Road had ended with a 14th-place finish, two behind their rivals Ipswich Town and 15 points short of the play-offs. Only three wins since early February and a 5-1 thrashing by Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough on the final day yielded “sleepless nights”, deep introspection and rumblings of discontent among supporters. Aarons, 19, an academy graduate, has been impressive at right back this season and has been linked with a number of Premier League sidesDAVID DAVIES/PA WIRE Webber, 35, who left Huddersfield Town for Norfolk in April 2017, “had been sowing seeds for 12 months”, he says, “but wasn’t seeing many green shoots, just a muddy field”. So he gathered his key staff to analyse their work in great detail. After the first day, their wives joined them for dinner. After the second, the Norwich board arrived. The conclusion? “Keep doing what we were doing, we knew it could work,” Webber says. “And we shut out the noise.” Tonight the Sky Bet Championship leaders could clinch promotion to the Premier League against Sheffield Wednesday, Farke’s 100th game in charge. Patience and courage has been vindicated. They would also return a very different club from the one that left the top flight three years ago. In a division of soaring spending and precarious debt Norwich have proved that intelligent leadership, savvy recruitment, progressive coaching and faith in youth can formulate a winning — and reaffirming — recipe for success. When Webber arrived, however, he found a club lumbered with an ageing, underperforming squad, a dysfunctional dressing room, a £55 million wage bill — then the second-highest in Championship history — and a growing disconnect between club and fans. “I’m going to call your baby ugly,” he told Delia Smith and her husband Michael Wynn-Jones, the majority shareholders, before embarking on a staff overhaul that meant all but three department heads left the club within six months. “Best in Class” adorned club correspondence, Webber recalls, of a club that had spent four of the previous six seasons in the Premier League but had a sub-standard training ground with a gym inside a conservatory extension. A bond scheme raised £5 million to redevelop their training base and academy at Colney, on the outskirts of the city, which will be completed this summer. There is now a commitment to nourishing and giving opportunity to homegrown talent. With Premier League parachute payments ending last season, though, Norwich’s self-sustaining vision was also born from necessity. The sale of James Maddison to Leicester City and Josh Murphy to Cardiff City in the summer took the amount received in transfer fees since 2017 to more than £70 million but the fear was that the squad would report for pre-season demoralised, with a feeling that the club was regressing. They arrived to find newly refurbished changing rooms, a new restaurant where the players could eat and socialise in comfort (and mobile phones are banned), upgraded training pitches and vivid imagery on the walls and corridors to reflect the latest squad rather than achievements of yesteryear. A private plane was chartered to travel to the club’s pre-season training camp in Paderborn, Germany, rather than Ryanair flights to the same location the previous year. In isolation, small gestures; but a broader statement to the players that the club was “investing in you”, Webber says. <img class="Media-img" src="//www.thetimes.co.uk/imageserver/image/methode%2Ftimes%2Fprod%2Fweb%2Fbin%2Fd8c1e532-61e2-11e9-99ae-5ebf638762d3.jpg?crop=4478%2C2985%2C277%2C414" alt="Webber, the Norwich sporting director, gathered key figures at the club for “brutal honesty” talks following a 14th place finish in 2017-18"> Webber, the Norwich sporting director, gathered key figures at the club for “brutal honesty” talks following a 14th place finish in 2017-18JASONPIX/REX/SHUTTERSTOCK A culture of self-improvement has been married with Norwich’s traditional family values. Every debutant has his framed shirt presented by a former player or coach. Tim Krul, the goalkeeper signed from Brighton & Hove Albion in the summer, had his presented by Bryan Gunn, the legendary Norwich No 1 of the Eighties and Nineties. In March, Nigel Worthington, the former manager, presented Alex Tettey with a framed shirt to mark his 200th appearance, then delivered a talk about the Championship title-winning campaign that he oversaw in 2003-04. Ant Middleton, the former soldier, adventurer and TV presenter, Gareth Roberts, the former Wales rugby union player, and Martín Gramática, the former NFL placekicker and Super Bowl champion with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, have delivered talks to the players — the latter, during the club’s mid-season training camp in Tampa, Florida, on performing under pressure. Smith and Wynn-Jones, meanwhile, often have lunch with the players and every new signing’s family is invited to dine with them. A more open and inclusive environment was in evidence at the club’s annual meeting last year when Smith, Wynn-Jones, Ed Balls, the chairman at the time, and Webber mingled with shareholders before and after the meeting. On New Year’s Day they accepted an invitation to meet supporters for drinks in a London pub before the Brentford game. Webber’s leadership qualities, understandably, have not gone unnoticed; the 35-year-old, who began his career in football as a coach in Wrexham’s academy and holds a Uefa pro-licence, received covetous glances from Southampton in November. He worked in recruitment for Liverpool and QPR before taking director’s roles at Wolverhampton Wanderers and Huddersfield Town. In November 2015 he brought David Wagner, the former head coach of Borussia Dortmund’s reserves, to England after discussing their football philosophies with a bowl of chocolate raisins laid out on a table in the German-American’s home. Farke, whom Webber returned to Dortmund reserves for, has cultivated much goodwill with his articulate post-match musings and likeable demeanour since arriving in Norfolk. But after only one win from the opening five league games this season the pressure on the former German lower-league striker spiked further. Last season’s build-up play was often laboured and slow but some key summer signings and Farke’s labours on the training ground have finally brought his vision of high-pressing, expansive, dynamic football to life. <img class="Media-img" src="//www.thetimes.co.uk/imageserver/image/methode%2Ftimes%2Fprod%2Fweb%2Fbin%2Fbb60e5ce-61e2-11e9-99ae-5ebf638762d3.jpg?crop=3000%2C2000%2C0%2C0" alt="Farke, the head coach, joined from Borussia Dortmund II in May 2017 and has implemented an expansive, high-pressing style of football at Carrow Road"> Farke, the head coach, joined from Borussia Dortmund II in May 2017 and has implemented an expansive, high-pressing style of football at Carrow RoadROSS KINNAIRD/GETTY IMAGES “We dominated many, many statistics last season but the biggest difference compared to last season is that we have added some end product,” Farke, 42, says. Some sweeping team moves and goals, the most goals scored in the division and 29 goals in the last 15 minutes of games have left Canaries fans purring. All of which is even more remarkable given that Norwich’s starting XI in Sunday’s 1-1 draw with Wigan Athletic contained four academy graduates, four free transfers and three players who cost a total of about £4 million. Kieran Scott, the head of recruitment with whom Webber worked at Wolves, leads a team of four full-time scouts and two analysts who have mined a growing list of diamonds. The shimmering talent of the 22-year-old Emiliano Buendía, a diminutive Argentine winger signed from Getafe for £1.5 million, has lit up Carrow Road with eight goals and 11 assists and he looks ready-made for the Premier League. Teemu Pukki, 29, a free transfer from Brondby who underwhelmed during a season with Celtic in 2013-14, has 27 goals and ten assists and was named Championship player of the year. Kenny McLean, a £200,000 signing from Aberdeen, came into midfield in January and encapsulates the strength in depth of this squad. Farke’s knowledge of his native country has also meant that nine players have arrived from German leagues in the past two seasons, on free transfers or for nominal fees. There is pride, too, in seeing three academy players aged 21 or younger populating Norwich’s back four. Max Aarons, the right back who has started every game since his league debut against Ipswich Town at Portman Road in September, has played with remarkable poise and consistency. “[Farke] just gives you massive confidence when you go out on the pitch to go and play your game,” says Aarons who, along with Jamal Lewis, the left back, has transformed the dynamic of the team. Ben Godfrey, a central defender, has grown in stature with every game alongside Christoph Zimmermann, 26, a bargain free transfer from Dortmund. <img class="Media-img" src="//www.thetimes.co.uk/imageserver/image/methode%2Ftimes%2Fprod%2Fweb%2Fbin%2F3cedc344-61e5-11e9-9842-63958b78574e.jpg?crop=1834%2C2750%2C119%2C57" alt="Free transfer Pukki is the leading scorer in the Championship this season"> Free transfer Pukki is the leading scorer in the Championship this seasonMICHAEL ZEMANEK/BPI/REX/SHUTTERSTOCK Farke’s meritocratic approach means that experienced players such as Timm Klose, a £10 million signing from Wolfsburg in 2016, Grant Hanley, who cost £3.5 million from Newcastle United in 2017, and Jordan Rhodes, on loan from Sheffield Wednesday, have had to wait on the sidelines. “When quality players are not in the starting line-up but are unbelievably supportive in the dressing room before and after the game, happy to celebrate with the team, pretty often this season I got the feeling this is a really special group of players,” Farke says. A leadership group of those senior players takes responsibility for marshalling the youthful squad too. When Buendía reacted badly to being substituted, for example, he was reprimanded by his team-mates. For much of this season eyes in the Championship have been fixed elsewhere, on Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United or Frank Lampard’s Derby County. It is Norwich, however, who have scaled the greatest heights, with a manager who speaks of the “fun” that his players are having and a board whose vision and patience has been richly rewarded.
