Love love LOVE Yunus. 

Passion & energy. More passion, more PASSION

[Jaspa]

Norwich have neanderthals as CB's

[Legend_in_blue]

Yunus is a busy player.  Looks tidy on the ball too.

[Bryn]

Kelechi's performance aside, I can't see the Norwich CBs being able to handle Vardy.

Thinking we need a bit of pace at front with both CB’s on a yellow !!

We are not at all short of that on the bench. Absolute text book management from Enzo.

Nacho has been good, Casadei has looked bobbins , expect him to be hooked at half time for Dewsbury-Hall.

Nope - he's been running into nothing all game. Although that last pass to Mavadidi was good. I would keep on for 15 mins to see if the penalty has given him some confidence.

[PhillippaT]

Hi everyone - I can't believe we missed the first half    (I was busy and neither of us noticed the time  )

Scored from a pen, then? We didn't miss much?  

[Filberts lovechild]

Hopefully we’ll bring on the first team now. Casedei, Iheanacho, Akgun haven’t covered themselves in glory this half clearly not on form. KDH, Ndidi, Vardy plz.

 

Very good score line wise tho

Impressed. Chasing down everything. 

[BenTheFox]

Any streams guys? 

[Number 6]

Hamza has been so aggressive and proactive in the tackles when Norwich try to get forward. He's been great.

Are you watching the game? 

Yes. It was a poor penaly, he tried to put it down the middle and ended up putting it about a foot to the right of the centre and Gunn got a finger too it. Another milimeter and it's saved and we all talk about how bad Kel has been.

[Daggers]

Big crisp update: here it is compared to average sized olives - it’s unbelievably huge. 

 

[Stevosevic]

Get some more pace on and we win this.

Yet it somehow feels like he could be doing more and laying it off to others for an easy tap in. 

 

Strange player. 

He is raw for sure, if we go up he will need to learn to be less wasteful 

[RowlattsFox]

Missed the penalty because I took the lad to bed but from the first half hour it could be described as a patient but controlled performance. 

 

Under Rodgers its probably described as crap but it feels composed under Enzo. Back ourselves to create eventually. 

 

Yunus is tidy on the ball but don't if he has that extra bit to get away from his man. McAteer did well but doesn't have the ability to take his man on one on one. 

 

Iheanacho was dreadful but has scored the goal I guess so yay.

If the ref had booked Gibson for his first foul on Nacho they wouldn't have had so many complaints but he booked him for the weaker challenge straight after he booked Duffy then he booked Barnes for gobbling off. They're just whining because they lost control of the game in that final 15.

This has killed me

[EnderbyFox]

Can’t wait for Abdul to put these defenders on their arses when he comes on 

[jayfox26]

Strong end to the half and we've got then rattled. I'll be amazed if at least one of Duffy, Gibson or Barnes doesn't get sent off. Barnes really is a hideous individual.

[Harry96]

This league is really piss don’t have to even be good to do well

Probably should have been 2, but I think 1-0 at half times a fair reflection

 

Been the marginally better team considering all the changes but they look poor.

 

I'd imagine they'll come out much better in the second half. Get ndidi on for casadei at HT and bring Vardy on for the last 30mins to stretch their defenders 

If Nach hadn't got that goal there was every case for bringing Vardy on at HT. Nacho just isn't a no9 in any league. He can do the Maddison 10 role or even the Ndidi/Casadei role in this formation but he drops too deep for a striker. This style needs someone up top that stretches the defence and makes them drop back a yard.

I think he will get another 15 minutes but he hasn’t had a great game. I expect most of those five changes made before the match to be reversed before the game is over to be fair. I was worried about so many changes beforehand but we have done better than I expected. Strength in depth is going to be very important in this league. 

[Blue-fox]

I ain’t being funny but Casadei is Gash 😂

[kyleolly]

Most of you lot have no patience at all

[st albans fox]

They’re pressing high with 4 or 5

 

that leaves quite a gap behind - surprised akgun hasn’t shown for the pass rather than it always having to be kel
