Indy 3,232 Posted December 28, 2019 Today’s game highlights just what standard of football Farke has bought to City, with Youth, 2,3 & 4 division German league players and free transfers. Now imagine next season with money to invest and the future looks very bright, even if we have another season in the championship. We are in a fantastic position even if we sell a couple of our stars, money will be there to build. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
All the Germans 1,070 Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) Was there any thoughts that Farke shouldn't stay? If there was, that person needs to have their right to think to be revoked. Edited December 28, 2019 by All the Germans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted December 28, 2019 I think you’ll struggle to find a Norwich fan that doesn’t want him to stay. If we can hold onto him is a different matter as he must be getting attention from German teams now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kick it off 1,927 Posted December 28, 2019 Never been a question in my mind. I'd be devastated to lose him regardless of what the rest of this season brings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted December 28, 2019 We know which individuals would say Farke Out but they are so much in the minority that I doubt many would even entertain the thought. Even the SKY pundits remarked about his job being safe. Of course, we could lose him to a bigger club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggy 739 Posted December 28, 2019 I haven’t really seen anyone seriously suggest Farke should not stay. What’s slightly perplexing though is that we seem to regularly be competitive against / pick up points against top six sides but can’t get it right against weaker sides.

pete 318 Posted December 28, 2019 Farke definitely to stay. Next season will bring its own problems. a number of players have sampled the PL and are likely to want to stay there to reap the PL riches. There may be 4 or 5 that fall into that category Pukki, Godfrey, Buendia, Aarons, Lewis and Cantwell. They may bring £60m but to replace them will take a huge slice of the PL premium. And we are unlikely to find free transfers, Spanish bargains or Academy starlets to fill those positions. Whether it is the PL or Champs next season we will be a less talented team and Farke will be under extreme pressure to bring success to City lets see if he gets the same support when we miss out on the top 26.

More like £160m in the current market or more. Rumour is Spurs going for Aarons for £50m in January. We won't get that much but on today's evidence he is far better than Aurier and how much did he cost them? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TeemuVanBasten 3,327 Posted December 28, 2019 I've not seen anybody suggest we sack Farke, seen several suggest he has been stitched up by a lack of investment in the squad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It kind of makes sense to me tbh. Most top six sides tend to have more technically gifted, skilled and quick-thinking players, sides nearer the bottom have more physically robust players instead, we get massively outmuscled and dominated aerially by these more direct sides, whereas the top sides often let us play more, and our style of play is just better suited to that kind of opposition. I can fully see a situation where we'd beat most of the 'top' sides, yet lose horribly to sides who are technically far worse than the top teams we've beaten...!

Monty13 2,173 Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) Even in the few posts I’ve seen critical of Farke, removing him has not been a thrust of the argument. I don’t think anyone seriously wants to see him go, regardless of this seasons result. Edited December 28, 2019 by Monty13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,825 Posted December 28, 2019 I just hope he wants to stay after the season has finished. Great coach and a great man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back 3,140 Posted December 28, 2019 Watching Tettey you see what Farke brings. Yes he has always run around won balls stopped attackers but the ball after he won the ball often left a bit to be desired. Now he wins the ball and is passed the ball and his distribution is at another level as is his confidence on the ball. With the greatest respect to the age of Tettey if Farke can bring this to a player in the autumn of his career think what he can do for much younger players.
