TIL 1010 4,745 Posted July 17, 2020 https://www.pinkun.com/norwich-city/canaries-daniel-farke-defends-timm-klose-lukas-rupp-josip-drmic-criticism-1-6751545 Apparently Drmic covered more ground than anybody else at Chelsea and Rupp covered more ground than anybody in the last round of matches. Looks like what they did as they ran around like headless chickens is of no consequence. 😜 It seems that they are firmly going to remain in Farke's plans. He also defended Klose which i can understand as there is no option other than to play him but those other two clowns i am at a loss. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeymarSmith 130 Posted July 17, 2020 I can definitely see rupp here next season, and as others suggest, I'd assume to be a signing with one eye on a bargain for next year? ( Question, do we have think he will be decent in championship next season?) But drmic. Like, no. Just no. Useless. But then again, who would want him for money or wages? So guess Daniel has no choice for drmic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,234 Posted July 17, 2020 He's obviously been reading the Pinkun then as all 3 were picked out as shockers. And that's most polite way of putting it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 6,716 Posted July 17, 2020 Ruup is average, not a a fan of him but he will be decent in the championship. Drmic on the other hand.. somehow raps worse than he plays, and he's a ****e rapper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,605 Posted July 17, 2020 All three players he stood up for have contracts here next year so obviously he's going to defend them. Hardly likely to throw a player under the bus to appease the fans right now. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crafty Canary 495 Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) As Rupp and Drmic have not played in the Championship we shouldn’t write them off now. Edited July 17, 2020 by Crafty Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah totally, different kettle of fish the prem and champ. But from what you have seen what do you think? Rupp bit a starter and drmic not even squad tbh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep think we’re going to struggle against those championship sides who have eleven Messis playing for them 😕 Rupp will be fine in the championship. Works hard, movement off the ball is decent, seems to be lacking in confidence. Drmic im less convinced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Works hard, movement off the ball is decent, seems to be lacking in confidence. Drmic im less convinced. Rupp is a pup. His normal course is to kick the ball back towards our own goal or to give it away. Those qualities aren't required in any league, let alone the Championship. He makes Dorrans look accomplished.

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted July 17, 2020 I really don’t get the dislike of Rupp - he’s not done that much wrong, not a glamour player but will do a job. Drmic on the other hand really looks like a fish out of water. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 9,669 Posted July 17, 2020 Rupp is a decent enough player. Neither are clowns and both have given it a good go. Drmic could well be decent in the championship Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted July 17, 2020 He is the coach and they tend to see different aspects of the game that we tend to ignore. As far as many seem to think, Drmic offers very little and Rupp has in no way improved the team. Klose has looked a different player from two years ago. He should good enough in the Championship but maybe not starting like he used to. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

curious yellow 184 Posted July 17, 2020 Farke was right to say what he did. Drmic helps us out at defensive set pieces from the first corner which he headed clear. Rupp gets through a lot of work but his passes go astray. Trouble is nobody seems to be on the same wavelength. The newer players are always going to look worse. Iwan Roberts has recently stood up for Drmic and Duda, saying decent players that have taken time to settle in - like himself. Rupp and Drmic should be OK next season Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Van wink 2,994 Posted July 17, 2020 (edited) I still trust the manager, the manager that won the Championship, to make the right calls. I’m backing his opinion over posters on here. Edited July 17, 2020 by Van wink 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,749 Posted July 17, 2020 Rupp is this season's Graeme Stuart or Jonas Guttierez although unlike the other 2, we're lumbered with Rupp permenantly ...just as we are Drmic. They may surprise us and be effective in the Championship (if they're still here) but I'm not holding my breath that Drmic will be our Mirtovic at that level...
