Norwich v Chelsea

[ThaiCanary]

A chink of light - Palace have scored

 

[ThaiCanary]

Palace take the lead

 

[ThaiCanary]

and City score - woohoo

 

[ThaiCanary]

A far better showing in the last 10-15 minutes. Getting stuck in and roughing the Chavs up a bit

 

[KIO]

Don't get too excited boys no way Chelsea are going to throw away a two goal lead unlike some

 

[ThaiCanary]

Bugger - Sunderland equalise

 

[K E M P]

Going down. I'm 99% sure of it.

Just don't have the quality in the squad.

 

[ThaiCanary]

Given an off-side goal and the bulk of chances in the second half, a little unfortunate to lose in the end.

Have to agree - just don't play for 90 minutes. If that could change the whole season could be turned around.

 

[K E M P]

We don't have the striker that's needed to take the chances.

You might only get 2 or 3 chances a game in the PL and we don't have a striker who can put them away. That coupled with a **** defence will probably see us down.

 

[Forgot_My_Lines]

Well, another sh*te night to be a Norwich fan. Can't believe we are only just slipping into the bottom 3! I think we have found our ceiling for the rest of the season.

We have known that for a couple of seasons. That's the really angering thing.

Yet another hard luck story but as I said before hard luck gets you relegated. Defeat after defeat after defeat after defeat, totally soul destroying. Even tin pot Boremouth making a better fist of it and look certain to survive, we now need a miracle and miracles don't happen at Carrow Road.

Yes, it's going to be one of those slow, lingering relegations.

We don't have a settled starting 11. I don't think AN knows his best team. Now the change in formation to 3 centre-backs and wing-backs. Just smacks of desperation to me of a inexperienced manager.

I don't really blame AN but I don't think he knows what else to do with the squad he has available to him. What next? 4-4-2?

I would. Might as well start with 2 up top and start being more direct and expressive. Nothing to lose, and we sure as hell can't sit back and "defend". Might as well enjoy the last few months with some shots at goal for a change!

I think we have had some of our best games (performances) when reverting to 4-4-2 this season. I asked the question months ago but most people seem to be either scared to play it or think it "out of touch" with modern-day football - tell that to Leicester City!

We have known that for a couple of seasons. That's the really angering thing.

Yet despite having cash to splurge on Klose and Naismith, nothing has been done to address it (the goalscoring problem at this level)
If you're serious about dining at the 'top table', you need solid silver cutlery, not stainless steel

My point is FML that he has lost confidence in what he knows and is now experimenting with different formations that he and the players are not familiar with.

The writing is on the wall as far as I'm concerned unless something major happens. But I don't think that board have the balls for it.

Also, I'm not sure what we would gain from getting rid of AN. At lease he knows how to get out of the Championship.

I wouldn't sack him, i just want us to play attackers and just go for it. 2 shots on target again tonight. Really is f8cking pathetic. Every game is the same story.

To play a 4-4-2 at this level against a 5 man midfield, which most teams play at this level you have to have a VERY solid defence and also a **** hot midfield that puts in a shift both attacking wise and defensively, wingers included. Nuff said.
