2023/2024 season.

Sadly for Giannoulis, the comparison isn't so favourable:

 

His last eight matches, 90 minutes each, 7.2 average. Decent rating.

 

Norwich City midfielder Kenny McLean has been named as the Player of the Season for 2023/24 season.

The Scotland international has started every Championship league game for the Canaries this campaign.

He told the club's official website: "Obviously, I'm really happy with the award and the fact that the fans have voted for me to win it is pretty nice.

"We had a few candidates, which is good and means it's been pretty good, especially recently. It's great, and I appreciate all the support we've had, for me personally, and for the team throughout the season."

Gabriel Sara was second in the voting, with Josh Sargent third.

 

Fully deserved for all three.

 

Not sure all fans would agree

 

Agreed, I think Gunny and Stacey could have been in the mix as well. Rowe as well had he not been injured

 

Agree with all of that but at least Rowe got Young Player of the Year.

 

Our final game with Brum will be on Sky:

Any news on Barnes' fitness?

 

Just answered my own question and it isn't good: https://www.pinkun.com/sport/norwic...ity-suffer-injury-blow-striker-ashley-barnes/

 

Considering how poor the playoff teams form has been over the past few games they could be really poor with all the teams nervous.

We are top of the ones left though?

 

There are some important differences in those last 6 games. Leeds needed points to stay in the race for automatic promotion, but failed miserably, finishing 6 points behind Ipswich. The 4-0 loss to QPR was particularly damning.

Our principal task was to stay ahead of the teams below us to secure at least sixth place. We succeeded in that even though we failed to hang on to fifth place. Not a great finish, but we did accomplish our strategic aim whereas Leeds did not.

 

Brilliant. Enjoyed that. Thanks Suffolk.

 

Apologies if this has already been posted elsewhere.

There is an excellent informative article on MFW, by Will Grant where he picks his combined u18/21 team of the season. Here is the list he has compiled.

GK, Ellis Craven.
RB, Emanuel Adeboyega. (Did not realise that he had played RB).
CB, Charlie Wilson.
CB, Waylon Renecke. Left footed.
LB, Gabe Forsyth. 15 goal contributions.
CM, Miles Bracking.
CM, Pedro Lima. 9 gc.
LAM, Elliot Myles.
RAM, La'Sean Sealley. 21gc.
ST, Ken Aboh. 15 goals.
ST, Errol Mundle-Smith. 16 goals.

I urge you all to read this article, in which each player is analysed.

 

All retained apart from Pedro Lima, who has gone back to Palmeiras?

 

Yes, it seems they weren't prepared to sell, or at least not for our offer.

 

Here's Will's article:

I would have liked it if they had have said their ages next to their names. I know he talks about the team they were in, but that would be helpful to see how long they have to mature
