Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 2,799 Posted May 17, 2009 At times last season we were a one-man team and that man was Sammy Clingan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Here We Go 0 Posted May 18, 2009 We have to keep Semmy, his speed is amazing and he will rip most defences to shreds, lets try him right midfield get him attacking up the wing and bring in a new reight back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cockers85 0 Posted May 18, 2009 wouldn be that bothered if hoola hoop left, probably on big-ish wages and wed get a bit for him. Clingan for me was a class above, range of passing and control was premier league level. Although Clingan is as good as signed on at Fulham apparently.Cureton has got to have a big season, and repay some of the faith and money put into him. His record in the late 90''s and early 00''s in League 1 or Second Div is about 1 in 2, wed need him Lee if he signs on to be going at at least that rate.

The main problem with him (well its sort of two) is that he is to clever/tries to do too much/know one knows what he is going to do next, including his own team mates.

And when Clingan looks for a player, when he has the ball, he just losses it, i hope we sell him to Fulham, we would be lucky to get 500k Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chicken 0 Posted May 18, 2009 [quote user="old yellow bird"]Declan Rudd - he can actually save penalties![/quote]Not to mention score them . . . . . The problem with this is the battle between heart and head. My heart would love to see Clingan or Hoolahan or both stay.The problem last season was consistancy - we didn''t seem to get much of that until Gunn because Roeder kept ''tinkering'' with the team either bringing in rubbish loan players like Sibierski and not playing others like Lupoli or just changing things for no apparent reason.He wanted Hoolahan to be more consistant but he didn''t give him the games to do it. He wanted Semmi to be more consistant but didn''t give him a great run of games to do it either. On top of this both players seem to be the type that need encouragement and the arm around the shoulder, confidence players, rather than the bawl at them until they fear you types. Is it any wonder that we have arguably seen perhaps their best performances of the season under Gunn?At this rate of the experienced players it looks like we will be left with:Nelson, Semmi, Stef, Doc, Drury, Russell and Cureton. After that you have: MacDonald, Martin and Spillaine - the last two having had a good season under their belts.And then you have the youngsters who are more in line with MacDonald experience wise.I fear that if we are not careful this summer could repeat all of the misstakes of the last two - releasing players before they are replaced, if you are lucky getting in a last minute better than nothing player.If a team is to progress it needs consistancy - it needs a core of players to be built around. In my opinion you need Lee, an 27/28 year old midfielder that is a steady hand and Doc - build the team around these players as they could form a strong ''spine'' of a team and be there for the next two or three seasons which is what you want. Then you need to start to find players that will commit to Norwich for two or three seasons.It is no shock that the teams that got to the play off final and promotion were made up of regulars with very few changes to the starting line up during those seasons. Even with players who were arguably worse than those we had last season the continuity and the team bond was strong and they played as a unit. The last coupld of seasons we have just played as a bunch of idividuals with a few die-hards who try and work to get the team clicking as a unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
