I was annoyed when we signed McGovern. Off the back of 1 World cup bid of about 4 games. Slightly more aggressive than usual. I like it. Although, still glaze over club/team problems. You think that even if Nelson doesn't leave, we are good up front and good in attack? Have you watched any games this season? Even if we keep Jerome and Nelson. That is not enough to keep us up, now Pritchard has gone. Jerome has totally lost it, Nelson has no confidence. When he does get selected. DF seems to not like him anyway. From watching us this season. I don't look at the side and think: GK is the reason we aren't playing football or getting results. If only we had a GK, we'd be up there competing for the title!
Is that because you were so passionate about the signing of McGovern? I remember you having a go at me cause I said it was a waste of wages we don't need. And you said he was world class because of the wold cup.
Relegated? We ain't that bolloxed yet. by the end of the window I might agree, but if Tettey stays fit we can bumble along mid table no problem. Bah!
Living in Nice does make it difficult to attend many games but you have misread what I said. I did in fact say that we HAVE problems up front whether Basil stays or goes. From what I have seen, heard and read, Basil brings nothing to the team and whilst Cameron works his socks off he isn't, never was and never will be, a goal scorer. He will also be 32 at the start of next season so his work rate might well start to drop.
He's now showing as No 36 in the 1st team squad - https://www.canaries.co.uk/Teams/First-Team/. Great move for the lad and let's hope he gets his chance even as a sub soon!! NOTE - The under 23 game v Newcastle is at Colney on Sunday with a 12pm kick-off. You could take the gf FML and it's only just up the road!!! PS - See post #597 on Tuesday!!
I think that is what we all see. And have seen for a few seasons now. Nothing ever changes. I am sure we will need it next window as well, and the window after.
We'e played the majority of the season without Pritchard and are midtable, whilst he gave us a small chance of a lift out of an Ipswichesque midtable malaise. Tettey is far more critical. If we lose Madders to injury or transfer then I'm with you but, we ain't that bad yet. Bah!
Yes we did, and we were f*cking awful! Pritchard came back and him and madders dragged us through the awful tactics. So we have to see if Madders gets injured? If he does, I'm right, but the windows shut and we cant do anything about it? Sounds like a great plan. Are you on the Norwich Board?
He has been on the bench before this season so no reason why he shouldn't do so again. At last we have a manager taking a long term view by bringing on young players. It's good for the whole squad.
But we were awful and midtable! I to doubt Farkes tactics and having lost Pritchard but gained money I'd be pretty disappointed if Webber and Farke don' deliver at least two players better able than the current bunch to play his way. If we lose good players, we need to see squad progress towards a better functioning team. Not holding my breath though! Bah!
It is good and I won't knock it entirely, but it's not like he has any choice. Between senior players under performing or injured and players brought in not making the grade, what's he left with? You could argue that with Gofrey out on loan he has ignored one of our best younguns to play Tettey and someone elses loanee. Bah!
