We've seen how teams are going to set up against us at Carrow Road. Against Rotherham I'd like to see either Tettey or Johnson drop out for Howson. They've both had good seasons so far and it'll be harsh on them to be left out, but we don't need two predominantly defensive CMs when teams play like Charlton did. Howson is the perfect player to come in for Johnson. I like Johnson, but Tettey is the more complete player so he'd stay.
I disagree. Tettey's a very good defensive mid but is too one footed for my like.He often has to spin around to get a pass away because of this, resulting in a lost chance or a move slows down. His passing is not as accurate as Johnson's either. I agree with your idea but would play Howson & Johnson. Just my opinion.
I thought Johnson wasn't his usual driving self tonight, would have liked to have seen howson for him early in the second half and asked tettey to sit more. With our depth of central midfielders we really should be rotating more often - howson, odjidja and oneill haven't even started a game yet. I'd expect this loss will see a few changes to the team, garrido for olsson wouldn't surprise me as well as a midfield mix up.
Was very surprised at least two players were not rested last night. I thought O'Neill would replace Johnson and Howson replace Hoolahan. We have such a big squad I makes no sense not utilising them to the full.
