Monty13 2,252 Posted September 21, 2021 My opinion before the game was we should have played our strongest team, let them gel and get some confidence back with the performance. My view hasn’t changed. Total waste of time. Change of formation, 9 changes. We have been comprehensively beaten by Liverpool’s reserves and U18s combined, what did we get out of the game? I’m even more convinced now our best team would have got a result or at least given a performance to gain some confidence before Saturday. Its Farkes choice but it’s another poor one IMO that just adds to the pressure. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Graham Paddons Beard 2,450 Posted September 21, 2021 The mystery for me is how we play some of the best football I’ve ever seen from a City side , blow the division away , and as soon as we get up we look hopeless. I get that we have a style , but how can it be so brilliant in one division and useless in the Prem? it’s not like the Chumps is a pushover is it ?  Not picking on individuals .wouldn’t  bother with a sponsors MOM.

Disco Dales Jockstrap 1,898 Posted September 21, 2021 (edited) I think we should just give up trying to defend altogether as we clearly aren't very good at it. Push every one up front and run around after the ball like 8 years olds playing at the park. Failing that, could we not try synchronised swimming?

By Hook or Ian crook 917 Posted September 21, 2021 Farke doesn’t know his strongest team, we changed our side every game so far this season I believe? Not very indicative of a manager who knows what team is his strongest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted September 21, 2021 I think DF has to be on written warning now. We have brought in new signings who aren't, on the face of it, any better. But I will give them some slack because our defending is woeful and the real cause of our problem that the new players haven't had much chance to show their talent. People think some managers are dinosaurs because they concentrate on defence but it has to start there and build upon it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Tea 105 Posted September 21, 2021 I’ve been around a while, I’m getting on a bit in fact but I can’t recall ever seeing a Norwich team that looks so lost in itself.  Im sure there are good players in there but as a group…… they all just look lost.

Indy 3,317 Posted September 21, 2021 I do rate Farke, but I just don’t get his constant use of players who just aren’t up to this level. It’s like that old saying definition of insanity is to keep trying the same thing over and over and expecting a different result! Rupp, McLean & Hanley aren’t the players to try and build the team round. Sorensen no matter what we think on here must warrant a game or two as none of the midfield can say the are playing too well to be dropped! Idah really needs to watch this back and understand that he’s got to be a player to hold the ball up, he was up against two quality CB today but needs to show more. Disappointed as I really think he can be a huge asset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Webber hasn’t got a list of names in a safe somewhere ready to go he’s not doing his job properly. I’m not ready to agree to the need yet personally, although starting to think it’s maybe inevitable. That 4 year contract however is looking farcical and I say that as someone who celebrated it.
