cambridgeshire canary 6,516 Posted December 11, 2022 Given that sadly I think we all know deep down he's not going to be here for too much longer.. Can we at least take some time to appreciate all hes done for us and given us? Best free transfer in my books 😉   3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Myra Hawtree 122 Posted December 11, 2022 Love him. Â So humble. Â Just gets on with and not showy like other lesser strikers. Â Must be the Scandinavian temperament. Â Â Â Â 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted December 11, 2022 Looked a bit as if he wasn't enjoying it yesterday. As always a willing runner but for 99% of the time it was for nothing. Will be hard to replace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,092 Posted December 11, 2022 Let's save the appreciation until the end of the season. You never know he still might fire us to promotion. Time for Teemu to break records yet.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is obvious that he'll be gone in the summer though, so whether he's looking unhappy or not (no idea) the sentiment of the thread is fine, we should enjoy him and appreciate him while he's here.

Feedthewolf 4,790 Posted December 11, 2022 I'm going to miss the hell out of Teemu. Future hall-of-famer for sure, impeccable attitude and possibly the most natural finisher I've ever seen in a Norwich shirt. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarybubbles 1,894 Posted December 11, 2022 If Pukki goes at the end of the season and Dean Smith stays, I think that says everything about what our club has become. Buendia and Pukki gone, Smith still in his job. Talent carelessly disposed of, mediocrity rewarded. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIL 1010 4,657 Posted December 13, 2022 If ever the club get round to updating the Hall of Fame that for some reason has been totally neglected since 2012 Teemu Pukki should be top of the list of nominations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Google Bot 3,230 Posted December 14, 2022 Looking at that list, I Wish I knew more about our top scorer ever (Johnny Gavin). I see he played for around 10 years for us, so safe to say the chance of someone topping that tally is incredibly slim. Unless we manage to achieve enough success and can hold on to a goalscorer for similar years.... Or dive right down into the lower leagues and a local lad hangs around for a decade banging them in(?). Knowing very little about the guy, and never hear anyone talk about how prolific or great he was, There's barely any clips on youtube, it's just a nothing name to me and just realised how sad that feels. Not sure this post has a reason, really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grando 256 Posted December 22, 2022 He's still the player we should be building around at this level IMHO. We should offer him a decent new two-year contract pronto and stop peeing about. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As you say the camera work is great, I don't think I've seen any better from that era, so clear you can smell the earth and appreciate how sodden the ground was. That dummy by our number 4 (Cleary) was nonchalantly pulled off! Nearly 13,000 there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarybubbles 1,894 Posted December 22, 2022 I normally tend to be negative, but about Teemu I am nothing but positive. He has been a wonderful servant to this club, is totally professional, and has none of the ego issues that so many good forwards have. I use the present perfect rather than the present simple because I'm almost sure he's going at the end of this season. It's hard to overstate just how much we are going to miss him.
