Indy 3,448 Posted September 20, 2023 Barnes certainly can’t play the lone striker! He’s been ineffective along with Rowe who looks totally lost today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Idah is the solution, god only knows what the question is. Having said that some form of change is necessary. 5 subs at half time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

unique 464 Posted September 20, 2023 We’ll all be crying out for Idah before long, Gibbs can be such a lightweight. If Gibson slows the game down by putting his foot on the ball, you know a mis-placed pass is imminent…… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satriales 941 Posted September 20, 2023 We looked alright for the first 15/20 mins, then it all went wrong. Wagner will likely make changes fairly soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,345 Posted September 20, 2023 I think we'd feel okay if it was 0-0, a very silly penalty to give away but those are the fine margins between promotion and not. Very silly challenge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed - pathetic challenge given the circumstances, something I'd expect my grassroots team to do. Norwich are so slow on & off the ball it's painful, first game I've had to watch on TV this season and it looks in slow motion. Gibbs giving up challenges and chasing down the ball before he's even got out of first gear is frustrating too. Any early changes? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ged in the onion bag 955 Posted September 20, 2023 Can’t afford to sell defenders with pace like Omobamidele. We do look pretty sluggish at the back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted September 20, 2023 The worrying thing is that I look at our bench and there isn’t a single player standing out as a ‘bring him on after 60 mins’, even with Fassnacht and Rowe performing as they are. I guess we’ll see Hernandez come on and maybe Idah for Gibbs, but it feels like a really significant drop off from the pitch to the bench at the moment. and as I type that I see Placheta is coming on for Rowe… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 8,644 Posted September 20, 2023 Wow, taking Rowe off seems very odd to me. He hasn't done much so far but if you were going to guess who might pull something out of his hat it would be him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thought we started well and challenged them. We have purposefully put the high press on to make them go long but the quality of the passing from their keeper means they have worked it out. Equally Leicester have closed all space down for Rowe which leaves us struggling for an out ball. One thing is clear we can’t play the same way as we will be down to 10 so we will now have to concede possession to them, stay in the game and try and make it ragged in the last 20 and see why we can get.

Hopefully Wagner can tweak some things. Sounds like Barnes is going dropping far to deep which is his game normally but not if he is playing up front alone , i think the change of shape has confused us more than Leicester Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,540 Posted September 20, 2023 Very disappointing to see so many of our players just not at the races so far. Sara has been kicked out of the game. Rowe had Fassnacht having their worst games of the season. Gibson continues to be an utter liability when we have the ball in our own half and he or Duffy look odds on for a red card. Nothing in it for half an hour and then we imploded somewhat. Frightening how much difference Sargent makes. Losing one player should not have this level of impact.

S_81 1,051 Posted September 20, 2023 Gibbs should have been off at half time. Best hope Dewsbury-Hall doesn’t come on against him. As for Rowe coming off - not had his best game but far more of a danger than Placheta, surely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
