    Norwich City are back in midweek action on Wednesday, November 5, travelling to Hillsborough to face Sheffield Wednesday (KO 7.45pm).

    At present, the clubs occupy 23rd and 24th in the Sky Bet Championship with a gap of 13 points due to the Owls' points deduction.

    At the weekend, Wednesday secured a point at West Brom while Norwich suffered a 2-0 defeat against Hull City at Carrow Road.

    (CM) Kenny McLean - back problems
    (CAM) Emi Marcondes - hip problems

    time to shake things up, drop Sargent, or at least put him out wide, Makama through the middle

    This has to be our best chance to start the turnaround for the great escape. Here's WhoScored's predicted lineups:

    Interesting! I had a similar thought about switching Makama and Sargent to try to get him more involved but thought it would be dismissed as madness <laugh>

    Alternatively, 4-4-****ing 2 as Mike Bassett would say

    I think the latter might suit, with Kvistgaarden also available from the bench. Fisher isn't suited to playing as a WB and Sargent needs another player to play off.

    As for Schwartau, it's time to drop him, 2 goals, no assists in 50 matches? Come on that's Hernandez levels of poor, and I won't add further comments on him.
