Great article, 1950, from which this is the essence:
"He (SW) also talked about recruitment, emphasising that it’s about getting the right players for the Head Coach’s way of playing. Looking at the present squad, it’s clear that we have Farke’s choices in the spine of defence and midfield: Zimmermann, Hanley, Trybull, Vrancic, Maddison (who, contrary to conventional wisdom, never started a game before Farke’s arrival).
The positions where we don’t have ‘Farke players’ are right-back, the wings and – especially – up front. Given Stuart’s clarity of thinking, I’ll be surprised if those aren’t our priority areas for extra recruitment, starting now.
Webber also, as many have noted, talked about 2-3 windows to assemble the kind of squad he and Farke are looking for. It’s a longer horizon than we’re used to seeing from the management team at Norwich, and takes a bit of adjustment on our part too."
Emotions are running high now because we've reached what I call 'the bleak mid-window' stage. Four players have left with only a '19 year-old loanee coming in'. Woe is us the instant fixers say.
