Jsim1986 149 Posted August 21, 2021 Just now, Orly said: That was pathetic for 2-0. 11 men behind the ball. Everyone switched off. Dimi has been shocking , but Rupp is offering Fu*k all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chicken 2,624 Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) I've said it before and I'll say it again - when we play a narrow side Vs one of the top sides, we lose cover in wide areas, typically where their best attacking players are. Not only that, but they'll have the quality to switch the ball quickly. I just see it as being a bit naïve to set up that way against the top sides. I know it's a "free hit" but I would love to see us be prepared to stick the boot in a bit more and set up a little more defensively. 4-5-1, throw Sorenson into DM and tell the wide players to be more defensively responsible.

fredherring 136 Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Sixty million spent and we look worse than two years ago. Midfield didn't work against Liverpool, and so he does it again. I'm going to say it, after three years of loving farke, I don't think he isn't good enough to manage at the top level. Ten games of this and he has to go.

Branston Pickle 3,651 Posted August 21, 2021 Comment from Jermaine Beckford on BBC: Norwich are putting themselves in so many predicaments and it's their own problem and fault. They're causing themselves so many issues trying to play it out from the back and City are just setting traps, they're closing them down really well. Norwich aren't really doing themselves any favours. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robertociNCFC 98 Posted August 21, 2021 I get that Man City is a great side, but jesus christ Norwich at least put up a bit of a fight. It gets embarrassing seeing this happen time and time again against a side that provides any sort of a challenge. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dean Coneys boots 1,400 Posted August 21, 2021 But it’s all absolutely fine - the clappers have said so. You just say “but it’s Man City” to replace “but it’s Liverpool” last week and keep pretending selling our most creative player and not replacing skipp or upgrading the defence hasn’t left us totally outclassed in this division… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

damn that Ralph Coates! 47 Posted August 21, 2021 "free hit" or not, if we make drastic changes now or half-time, and lose 9-0 or something, it will destroy morale even more than another 3-0 and regroup for Leicester with a minus 6 goal difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
