I really hope im wrong as I will be at Carrow Road saturday but i can see Norwich beating us 2-0 or 3-1. Despite there setback they have a very good team and it would appear there problem at the moment is how they are managed. But with Morrison back in the team partnering Holt up front and the return of Hoolihan in midfield i think they will overpower us. We are going to have fight like tigers to stand a chance of anything from the game and if our performance is the same as saturday i fear another drubbing.
I think we have to play the 4-2-3-1 formation for a bit of solidity, this is my team: -----------------Green---------------- --Bosingwa--Ferdinand--Nelsen--Fabio-- ------------Derry--Diakite-------------- --------Park--Taraabt--Hoilett---------- --------------Zamora------------------
Basically agree with Sooperhoop, although that is the formation i'd go for i'm really unsure about Derry. Looked like his legs were going last season and I simply do not feel he's good enough. With Faurlin still not match fit though we don't have much of a choice, although i'm an admirer of Ephraim and I believe he could do a better job in there than Derry could.
Same as above but no Green nor Fabio. Possibly Johnson instead of Zamora to start. -----------------Cerny---------------- --Bosingwa--Ferdinand--Nelsen--Traore-- ------------Derry--Diakite-------------- --------Park--Taraabt--Hoilett---------- --------------Zamora------------------
We need to be careful not to make too many changes - a settled side is the best answer. But changes do need to be made. ---------------------GREEN--------------------- BOSINGWA----NELSEN---HILL-----FABIO ---------------DERRY---DIAKITE------------- PARK--------------CISSE-------HOILETT ------------------ZAMORA------------------ SUBS: CERNY, FERDINAND, ONUOHA, TAARABT, MACKIE, WRIGHT-PHILLIPS, JOHNSON Dropping Green would be a major mistake in my eyes - think what that will do to his already clearly low confidence. Cisse should play just off Zamora, and I have gone with Hoilett ahead of Taarabt as imo Hoilett is more solid in terms of ball retention, something we will need at carrow road. Then if the game is close bring on Taarabt/Mackie towards the end to run at the tired defence.
I like this very much but would keep green in as he is ex Norwich and comfortable there Zamora to batter them and I am sure Hoilett will score
How about a 'Spain wannabe'' formation without conventional striker/s? -----------------Cerny---------------- --Bosingwa--Ferdinand--Nelsen--Traore-- ------------Derry--Diakite-------------- ------SWP--Park--Taraabt--Hoilett------
Trarore should be starting !!! bosingwa ferdinand nelson traore Traore much more accomplished defender and has quality going forward , the two centre backs , who do you pick out of clint , ferdinand , nelson and onuaha ?? after our last performance ......
Interesting just watching MNF exactly a discussion point on how's the game is changing lets hope Flyer is watching
If we played like that we would be permanently pushed back to deep And we would be extremely boring to watch
