Match Day Thread Canaries V The Tykes

Let's hope we do get the ball to Basil quickly a few times, so that he has opportunities to at least test the Tykes' keeper.

Poll added to OP and I'm predicting a Canaries victory.

 

Is Basil fit to start? Or is he just back in training?

I've predicted Norwich win out of pure desperate hope.

 

Nice thread JM, I’m going today and will be in The Queen Of Iceni shortly if anyone wants to meet up for a pint

 

Thanks KIO - NOT up to your standard, but at least it gives posters a chance to vent their wrath/praise (if there is any), comments etc

Not there today, but going next Sat and Sun to see the Under 23s V Villa at 2pm and have a spare ticket if anyone wants it. You can get your own from any f the shops/ticket office and they're FREE.

 

Urgh....for fu..

Until today

 

Has Jerome hit double figures yet ?

 

In both air shots and a row 'Z' stat, then yes...several times over.

 

Why is Reed only on the bench?

 

Presumably because DF doesn't feel 2 DMs are necessary for the mighty Barnsley.
We'll see what Cameron McGeehan reckons about that.
A rare start for Hanley, too, yet Zimmers is on the bench so match fit, we assume?

 

I defensive midfielder

 

Can anyone make sense of the formation? 4-4-1-1 with Stiepermann left wing and Josh off Oliveira?

 

If what Cromercanary says is true then it looks like 4-1-4-1

 

I like the starting 11 and the actual formation is going to be interesting!!

 

Well I can't see him sacrificing Maddison's nimble feet and quick brain by playing him deeper as a holding mid - especially when we have Reed on the bench so ready to play, we assume?

Back to the 4-1-4-1 instead. It worked well against QPR early in the season. Maybe be better for home games than 4-2-3-1.

 

Here's how MB (minus beard) thinks they'll line up.

 

I won't be happy with a 0-0 today .

 

NO!!!!

 

We can agree on that!!!
