Gunn kept us in the game. A 3-2 away win against Millwall then three matches with only one goal scored. Let’s face it, this is not a good enough team to gain promotion. Can anybody post which players are out of contact this summer other than Pukki?

Byram, Krul , pukki , Hernandez & Dowell plus fans favourite leader & Hall of famer Issac Hayden . Surreal how highly rated he is by some on here 12 appearances 5 yellow cards 0 goal contributions
Posters are being very negative about him on the Pink Un messageboard, but I thought he was one of our better players in the first half. The throughball to Sargent was perfect and I agree that for the first time (except for the Bournemouth game, of course) he looked like he knew what he was supposed to be doing on the pitch. He was very poor in the second half, though, before he was subbed. That looked like fitness, and Wagner will soon sort that out if it was. To me, he looks very talented but I am worried about his attitude. Maybe he's just one of those people who has a naturally miserable face but is he really up for the rough and tumble of English football? At the moment he reminds me of the clever kid at a small school who then goes to a top university where everyone is very clever and he is struggling with that transition, but maybe this is just wild speculation on my part. I'm not a big fan of the English love of players who wear their heart on their sleeve - e.g. the way some fans rated Williams above Giannoulis last year because he 'played with passion', or people who found Vrançic too laid back and criticised him for not running around like a blue-arsed fly for ninety minutes - but I think Tzolis does need to find a bit more 'edge' if he wants to succeed in English football.
Whatever the Cuban born German Hernandez has as far as effort, heart , charisma & loyalty. What he lacks in talent the guy more than makes up for in the personality department. He just looks permanently grateful & happy to be at Norwich. I love him, keep him around & integrate him into the coaching staff same with Mcgovern. Tzolis does seem to have a bit of an ego without earning it . Perhaps he just has one of those faces .
Hayden needs jettisoned back unless we can sign him on a short term free transfer from Newcastle with minimal wages. Krul can take up the Mcgovern senior role on a more affordable contract if he wants to be number 2 ? Byram , no he's constantly Jarvis'ed get rid. Dowell is still young enough to keep around the place , he rarely plays but clearly a decent enough player . Hernandez has to stay if only for his linguistics & cheeky toothy grin
