    The form guide says we'll struggle. Gomis up front hints of the same. I also think a draw would be a good result.

    I just hope Monk surprises us today and has a different strategy and approach to this game as I can't see the lineup being anything other than predictable.

    Playing Gomis today is a guaranteed defeat for us, Monk is starting to look clueless...........<ok>

    I am not convinced Monk is capable of changing things, as phil says He will persist with Gomis up top despite no goal in over 2 months when we have a perfectly good striker on the bench and to couple that blame others saying they have to create more. The more I think about it the more I believe that Monk is going backwards at a rate of knots and it is sad to see, Think he is now out of his depth and actually doesn't know what to do to put it right.

    So we get tanked by an Arsenal side decimated by injuries and our useless striker bottles a 1 on 1 and Monk rewards them by picking the same side :mad:

    That's how it's looking right now. I'm sure most of us hope he can pull it round but the clock is ticking.

    No changes , oh well , still think we're going to have a huge break out game today.
    I also think not playing more players will hurt us in the long run , I expect a flood of transfer requests when the window is open.
    Not happy

    Knocking it about quite well so far but it seems like we have Montero, Siggi and Taylor on the left and just Naughton on the right!

    Fernandez, Taylor and Naughton slow our game down soo much...by the time they've passed amongst themselves Norwich have got all the shape back...really need to work the ball quicker.

    Get Shelvey off and bring on Britton.

    I've been saying it for weeks. It should be Ki and Cork/Leon in CM.

    We may as well melt Gomis down and use him as frigging superglue <grr>

    Decent pressing but way too narrow. Poor game, nowrich sitting back and we're inept at creating chances. Tabanou is needed, I hope monk can sort the issues out between themselves.

    I wish some of the other players had Siggi's workrate. Gomis may as well not be on the pitch.

    Only Ayew is prepared to take on and run at defenders ?

    Nowrich are just waiting for the opportunity to counter. They're sucking us in and we must keep our discipline and concentration

    Look at him, the useless git. Would rather dive for a penalty than try and move to get the ball. There was no need for him to dive there. That was a decent ball by Taylor into the box. Get him off!!!!!!!!!!
