Match Day Thread Sunderland at home 12 March 2023

[GozoCanary]

Forgot how keen on himself Allan Russell is!!

Pure speculation on my part, I know, but I wonder if he had a fit of pique when he was passed over for the manager's job?

EDIT: Reading this back, I think I am being a bit uncharitable here. Equally possible is that the way things panned out made him realise that he needs to get managerial experience at a lower level before he can aim for clubs at Norwich's place in the footballing hierarchy.

EDIT # 2: On the other hand, if this is the case: 1) Why not stay in the job and apply for others? It's always stated that it's easier to get a new job if you're already in a post, 2) Why did Wagner's comments sound much less magnanimous that he usually is?

I'll throw my hands up & admit I wanted Sir Dishy set piece dude to do well & become permanent manager

DD has a man crush.

Maybe he has another job lined up.

Really good start by City, and Sunderland score with their 1st chance. ffs

 

[carrowcanario]

But they weren't clear chances.
Keep up

Idah and Hernandez really struggling to get into the game

Idah is really poor.
Argos coming more into the game.

Idah is really poor.

He has been today, not been strong enough, in contrast he was really strong and his hold up play excellent last week

 

[Bure budgie]

Well that was 45min we will never get back.
What has gone wrong?
Sargent on for Idah would be a start.

 

[Canary Rob]

McClean has a weak first half: Norwich has a weak first half.

 

[DUNCAN DONUTS]

Lots of silly cock ups , playing so high up the pitch if Kenny Gibson or Handley get caught in possession Sunderland are in on goal.

Just looks like a lack of concentration

Which we are going to need. The starters have been very poor.

 

[GozoCanary]

This reminds me more of a poor Farke performance than a Smith performance. Lots of possession but no penetration, and fragile at the back. I suspect this may well be my last Match Day Review for a while.
