Northern Canary 0 Posted September 20, 2004 Henderson, Jarvis, Brennen, Shackell (basically last years growing talent). Do you think they are up to the standard? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Carles Puyols Hair 0 Posted September 20, 2004 How does anyone know? They never get a look in. I suspect that they are but until they get given a go we will never know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SwindonCanary 455 Posted September 20, 2004 If we did''nt go up last season I''m sure a couple of them would now be in the first team, but now they will have to be a little more patient. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peter 0 Posted September 21, 2004 Well I witnessed last nights reserve game and can report that neither Jarvis, Hendo, Brennan or Shacks looked as if they were trying to catch anyones eye.Jarvis missed a twice taken penalty by ballooning second effort over the bar, and didn''t seem interested.The others tried but didn''t particularly impress, although City had the best chances and probably should have won, Danny Crow looked good unfortunately at around 5''8" he is the normal height for a promising City striker e.g. Hendo, Jamie Cureton etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northern Canary 0 Posted September 21, 2004 i just really want to see them play, they have so much potential. I hope they get played against Bristol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bananaman 0 Posted September 21, 2004 How do you know they have so much potential?If Jarvis was Norwich''s equivalent to Rooney, he would be in the team by now, no questions asked. If Hendo was really that good then he would have gone to Newcastle for, not James Milner or Darren Ambrose. If Brennan was that good, I''m sure Nigel would have him in the side like a shot, but it doesn''t seem to be the case.As for Shackell, he will have to wait his turn but he looks like he could be good enough.But where are our Darren Bents and Ian Westlakes and Andy Reids and Peter Whittinghams and Stewart Downings and Andy Dawsons and Calum Davidsons etc etc etc? If anything, we could do with the money from their sales!Nigel has very little money - if he could put them in the team and avoid spending money on transfers, I''m sure he would. Wouldn''t he? I don''t know, but it seems strange. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Imagine if they *were* interested!As for 5''8 not being tall enough for a striker... I don''t remember being too worried about Bellamy''s height. If you''re good enough....

FilletTheFishWife . 0 Posted September 21, 2004 [quote]Henderson, Jarvis, Brennen, Shackell (basically last years growing talent). Do you think they are up to the standard?[/quote]Yes they are but I don''t think the youngesters warrant a place in the first XI at present considering the other players we have at our disposal.Henderson, Jarvis, and Shackell are all potential for the future and just because they performed last year doesn''t mean to say NW is going to gamble on them just yet (especially as a poor performance could knock their confidence). Of these Henderson has the best chance as I don''t think we''ve really sorted out the right side of midfield and there''s not much to choose between McVeigh, Jonson and Hendo.Our defence has been our most impressive part of the team and I can''t see the need to change it and Helveg and Doherty would probably get the nod there.Jarvis is in the queue behind Leon, Matty and Doherty (if only the queue was in that order !!!).Brennan is a different matter and his omission perplexes me. I would have though he would be ideal in front of Drury, giving us a strong left side both attacking and defensively. Seems to me though, he''s heading for the Heckingbottom, Briggs etc i.e. a year in the reserves and then we give him away! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZLF 271 Posted September 21, 2004 I have to say I am disappointed that the didnt seem interested. The club does have cover across the squad and the chances of any of the youngster getting a game this season is remote.But surely by putting in some effort and trying to catch the managers eye with a string of positive performance there comes a time, perhaps in Jan etc, when he would have to give you a go, from the bench if necessary.I am suprised at Hendo - he has always given his all, disappointed with Brennan but with Jarvis does it confirm the too big for his boots reputation gained over the summer? If cant be bothered to show hopw good he is why would I want him in the first team?OTBC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted September 21, 2004 It''ll be interesting to see what team Nige puts out tonight. I can see players like Brennan, Jarvis, Hendo etc getting a game. I know it''ll only be against a Div 3 club, but at least we''ll get a look at them. I pretty sure Shacks will turn into a very good centre back. In a year he''ll break through to the first team. As for the others... If we stay up, I doubt they will stay much longer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
