Scouting thoughts...

I am posting it again as someone seems to have broken the previous one...I have been saying for a long time that Snodgrass should be more central

in support of Hooper as they are the greatest goal threats and show

signs of an understanding. I have also been saying that I would select

Whittaker at right-back. I like how he links with Snodgrass &

Hooper, makes good runs off the ball, and looks to get the ball into the

box early. Norwich are not going to get any points from the

final 3 matches unless they address the major problem in central

midfield of not tracking opposition runs. Tettey is the only one that

has been consistently good at doing that.I think Norwich would

have had a better chance of earning points from the recent Fulham and

Liverpool matches if Tettey had been selected in front of the back 4.

This also gives his fellow midfielders greater freedom to play to their

strengths going forwards. When starting with Tettey & Fer, Norwich

have stopped Spurs, Stoke, Cardiff, and Man City from scoring.My

biggest issue with RvW is that he has rarely been in the right

positions to score. He needs to stay central high up the pitch rather

than get left behind in midfield. It seems that he has now started to do

that resulting in good chances to score against Fulham and Liverpool.Depending

upon fitness levels etc. I would look to bring Tettey & Yobo into

the starting team. I would also consider Jonas for Fer''s position from

the bench.

I still don''t know whether the OP really does take himself that seriously or is on some kind of wind up ?

If nothing else, TC is sincere, as his help in relocating someone who was moving to Norfolk showed.  As it happens, I agree with him about Tettey - as I think a lot of people would.I think Martin is key to our future though,  as centre back and captain - and is why he will be in the team in front of Yobo, imo.   As for Snodgrass, a free role behind the strikers may work, as long as the wide players are effective too.   But with Tettey and Fer in as well where does Howson fit in? On the right? But Hughton tried that without much success.   We could end up too narrow in that situation, if we were not careful.
