Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted July 28, 2014 The three Bs are gone - we''ll never see them in a Norwich shirt again. What is worrying is no Olsson again - Adams said he wasn''t injured for the Bastia game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted July 28, 2014 Yer i didnt notice his name was missing. Seems to be quite a few missing pre season games. Especially striker wise. No Lafferty, RVW or Hooper tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 851 Posted July 28, 2014 So out of 20 there, i''d class 7 as youth players. I hope this isn''t the starting signs of a player exodus. Olsson the most worrying omission. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Move Klose 303 Posted July 28, 2014 Be more interesting to see who plays friday. Im hoping we are just being a bit cautious over knocks etc. Some of these players need some minutes tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarycop 232 Posted July 28, 2014 I would be slightly concerned should this be our squad a start of season. Am more concerned with lack of transfer activity or news either in or out. Get it if NA is giving the youth a taste of the first team dressing room but really shouldn''t we have our strongest available squad in our last two friendlies?

canarycop 232 Posted July 28, 2014 Morty I don''t for one minute think this is the squad we will start the season with. I said I would be concerned if we did though. I believe we have irons in the fire and that the board and management are keeping cards close to chest.At least I hope they are Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Brownstone 0 Posted July 28, 2014 We know Ricky, Lafferty and Howson have knocks which won''t be risked. Anyone got any ideas with Hooper and Olsson? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woodman 92 Posted July 28, 2014 questions for the Radio Norfolk reporter to ask tonight...1. why wasn''t Martin Olsson in the squad and, if injured, why wasn''t this specifically mentioned in the official pre-match press release like all the other players?2. when do you expect Gary Hooper / Lafferty / RvW / Fer / Howson to return to the squad?3. how long do you expect the wool to continue to be pulled over our eyes?

gabba 0 Posted July 28, 2014 The plan seems to be to replace experienced professionals with kids if any of our ''top'' players leave. Don''t expect any ambitious signings as long as McNasty has his hands on the purse strings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,358 Posted July 28, 2014 We know what most of the squad can do, this is a chance for the youth players to give themselves a chance of staying here instead of being shipped out on loan. I expect a more realistic starting 11 on Friday.After ask, Adams keeping his cards close to his chest could make the Wolves game an interesting one of even our own fans cannot guess the lineup or tactics!

JC 0 Posted July 28, 2014 I expect we will see most of the players that haven''t played tonight playing in the next match.As it is about minutes, it is better to give some of the younger lads some game time with the senior players Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joanna Grey 0 Posted July 28, 2014 Interesting tweet;Kris Handel @khandel84 14m@paddyjdavitt luckily Hooper wasn''t on the field or the goals wouldn''t have come...Seems that jaemae2 is not the only American City fan who can not stand Hooper.
