Thirsty Lizard 3,158 Posted September 10, 2016 Yes - I was going to post something similar Curious and you beat me to it. Great cross from Jacob for the first and a good corner for the second. And a superb goal from Josh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted September 10, 2016 Good to see them making a mark. I think they will continue to be great assets this season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted September 10, 2016 But the big question remains...Could we switch them as half time without anybody realising? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,528 Posted September 10, 2016 Or indeed have we switched them at half-time without anyone realising. When they''re on the pitchWe don''t know which is which...:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted September 10, 2016 Are there really two of them? Has anyone seen them both on the pitch at once? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paul101 93 Posted September 11, 2016 excellent progress from the boys Alex may get a lot of abuse but he has handled them well since he has been manager and if they carry on for the rest of the season like this your talking 10m+ players going by the new market inflation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 318 Posted September 12, 2016 Both progressing well, didn''t realise they we''re as flexible. With Ja being right winger and Jo left sided. Jo crossed from the left for opener and Ja scored with his right for winner. Hope Ja cameo gives him confidence that seemed missing from earlier performances and both befome firm fixtures.

SwindonCanary 455 Posted September 12, 2016 Although they both had good games, let''s not forget they probably lost the ball more then any other player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,528 Posted September 12, 2016 Attacking players usually do. How many attacks actually result in goals? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ernie 0 Posted September 12, 2016 This is one thing i agree with AN on, they will make mistakes but they need our support and encouragement if we want them to develop and progress. Giving them a hard time when they get it wrong is counterproductive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
It's Character Forming 1,160 Posted September 12, 2016 They''re attacking players who take on opponents and try for goal, rather than doing the safe pass across or back. That''s a higher risk of losing possession but it''s also how you score. Experience is how they''ll get better at it and both have made a really impressive start to the season. It''s got to be tempting to swap them at half-time without saying anything though... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TIL 1010 4,737 Posted September 12, 2016 Looks like the manager is not happy with the treatment the lads are getting from the crowd.http://www.eveningnews24.co.uk/sport/norwich-city/twins_need_your_backing_norwich_city_boss_alex_neil_urges_fans_to_lay_off_the_murphys_1_4692349 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diane 500 Posted September 12, 2016 I love the Murphy boys, both are progressing nicely, Jacob had a good game and what a goal from Josh, plus they are two of our own.No adverse comments from anyone sitting near me in the South Stand, on the contrary, everyone was getting behind them.

Norfolk Mustard 94 Posted September 12, 2016 Both Murphy''s have displayed poor ball retention & a lack of awareness as to what needs to happen in general play. Hardly surprising as they''re still learning the game. I have tutted, but never any more. In any case, look at their goal contribution - they both like to hit the back of the net which given our lack of strikers is rather useful right now. As AN points out, they are going to be special players - with our support, that process can be accelerated... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thirsty Lizard 3,158 Posted September 13, 2016 No job share tonight - just two more goals for Jacob.Also really good to see that he had to grit his teeth and battle through when he looked to be injured/suffering from cramp in the second half. All very good experience!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
