Line up for tonight: Norwich City FC @NorwichCityFC 36s37 seconds ago TEAM: Jones; Whittaker, Martin (c), Bassong, Toffolo; Thompson; Canos, Maddison, Andreu, Ja. Murphy; Lafferty. #ncfc
Hmmmm....goods and bads. Probably leaning more towards good. Gutted to not see Godfrey after his pre-season. That's harsh. Surprised Jones is in. He hates Lafferty, but he starts ahead of giving Morris a chance. If we ever sign a striker, Morris should go out on loan. Otherwise he'll stagnate here.
I'm off to the bookies to see what odds I get that Coventry will score at least 1 goal. With 3 of the back 4 likely to commit at least 1 gaff ......
Like the Arsenal game. Mane totally ripped Burton to shreds! He really does look good. Maybe he was worth that 32odd Million they paid. He would have been a fantastic fit at Arsenal.
"However, it was a night of mixed fortunes for the Magpies as Aleksandar Mitrovic, Dwight Gayle and Rolando Aarons all came off injured. Perez, who was also injured and had his head bandaged, curled in a brilliant opener in first-half stoppage time."
Approaching half time in the EFL cup games tonight - Accrington V Burnley 0-0 ET Fulham V Boro 1-1. ET Morcambe V Bournemouth 1-2 Sunderland V Shrewsbury 1-0 Didn't we lose to Shrewsbury a couple of seasons ago??? So Bournemouth and Sunderland go through, Burnley and Boro go to ET.
We're away to Everton in the next round again - drat, I would have liked another home game. Let's hope AN will select some youngsters to prove themselves again.
Rhodes stays sat on the bench despite Boro needing a goal. Strange if they have no intention of getting rid of him. That's 2 teams he can't get into at Boro.
How fantastic is that Accrington beat rivals Burnley for the first time since 1893, and the reward is a trip to the Olympic stadium to play Premiership West Ham. Really chuffed for their fans.
Our under 23s are finding it tough going in the premier league two as the development competition has been re-branded for this season - http://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/norwic...ch_city_u23s_1_middlesbrough_u23s_2_1_4672826. Carlton Morris led the line and scored our only goal.
Got my ticket for the Checkatrade game at Posh on Tuesday - will be interesting to see the "yoof" in action and hoping for a positive result.
