Time will tell but these 2 wins will do much to improve the players mental strength. We were so weak in that regard and played with fear for the first six matches. 3/4 points from the next 2 matches would be grand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ron obvious 1,514 Posted November 20, 2021 Game of 2 halves John. First half: Max looking low on confidence. Grant fiddling about & nearly getting caught on the ball too often. Ben just s-l-o-w. Williams not perfect, but much stronger than Dimi & looks our best option. Didn't recognise Matthias with his new 'do. Was he involved much? Kenny sort of rushed about, but too late & to little effect. Was Gilmour there? Rashica giving it a go & looking a threat. Teemu good as I've seen him this season. Todd ... words fail me. Looked every inch a show pony. How we didn't concede goals with his daftness I'll never know. Second half: USA! USA! USA! What a difference! Energised the whole team. Even Gilmour woke up half way through. Onwards & Upwards! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,339 Posted November 20, 2021 Thought we were disappointing first half but turned it around. Not perfect and they should have scored right at the end but a lot to build on there. The key was stopping them overloading us down the right hand side. They had a two on one there every time first half and Rashica was ineffective plus not tracking back well. I thought he was transformed on the left wing second half and putting Sargent in front of Max both gave him extra protection and got our pressing game going. I think we can get a lot better, particularly in terms of controlling possession in midfield, but that was a really satisfying win. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ron obvious 1,514 Posted November 20, 2021 Perhaps as encouraging as anything was that we started to look like a proper footballing Norwich side - once we'd wrested control back through some proper grit & determination. Ugly but it had to be done. As the old footballing adage goes, you have to earn the right to play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ugly but it had to be done. As the old footballing adage goes, you have to earn the right to play. That's what Stringer used to say. A very pleasing 2nd half and the reaction at the end was all you needed to know. Sometimes you don't need to be the best team to win a football match. A long way to go yet but big steps today against a team who were much better than Leicester, Brighton and Leeds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No worries over that @chicken thanks for keeping Lapps on the thread. It's great to remember him each match day🙃👍 Was it you or Lapps who subbed Keith Scott at halftime?

But don’t let that stop you…..😉 at least his performance improved after the changes made by Smith and he got the goal, again a half decent keeper would have saved it, but like I said three pints is more important than point scoring on this forum, so good header and great win!
