Norwich (a) - Match Thread

[PaddyS]

Wow. Defenders.... and then attackers. Could be brilliant!

[FOXSE]

I am always amazed that people think we should have the same starting line up. We have a deep squad and we are playing 3 games in 8 days! If we are ever going to reduce injuries generally, this is the only way.

[Lambert09]

got to be yunis as the 8. firstly because that’s where he came on against southampton and secondly because the official site has even lined them up in that order on twitter 

[Fazzer 7]

Whoa. Didn't see that coming. No Ricky no Ndidi.

[adam]

Hamza captain. Bloody hell.

 

Thought we had finally seen the back of him when he went to Watford now he's the captain!

[Chelmofox]

Okey - Yunus, Mavadidi and Macateer. Be interesting to see who does what.

 

Cmon Nacho  - prove me wrong.

 

Little concerned no KDH. Be interesting to see where the press comes from.

[nettle]

Yunus and Casadei central Mcateer out wide

Also, for us Yanks, the broadcast is on ESPN+.

And ESPN2, in a rare EFL televised match.

That is one confident Manager! 

 

Lot of changes. Hope it pays off, as it would be great to have that level of rotation and still get results. 

 

It could easily backfire though. I think we will see a lot of energy and freshness from these players at the very least. 

[Tuna]

It's bold I'll give it that

[Langston]

I keep looking at the bench expecting it to be depleted or something but no, he's just played us all.

I don’t think Norwich will have expected that line up. 
 

Hamza off the bench and gets the armband. 

Any pre match scouting they may have done will be in the wastebin now!

If the formation is the same then it doesn’t matter so much if the personnel changes

 

i wonder if this rotation means we are likely to be strong at anfield ? 

[Bert]

Yunus in the 8

[foxfanazer]

Crazy lineup but on a sidenote is that the strongest bench in championship history?

[Drink Water]

If we win this convincingly, Enzo is a certified tactical genius.

[lgfualol]

What an interesting side, definitely doing a lil Pep move by confusing everyone wish a team that looks weird but works somehow. Hope it works.

Wow!  Just wow.  I never even thought to look on the main ESPN channels for an EFL Championship match!

 

[daverollo]

Just WOW - did anyone actually predict that line up?

In Enzo we trust - Certainly looks like an adventurous attacking line up - I kind of like the look of it

Oh thank god Ricardo is on the bench, got worried for a second he had broken again

 

Be interesting to see what I expect is Kasey in the 8

 

Could see him and Yunus switching between the 8 and RW throughout the match

 

Love seeing us having such a strong attacking bench if we need it as well

I think Yunus will play as the 8 but they may well swap during the game depending on what's happening. Big game for him and Casadei, this is.

I think so, with Yunus and Stephy as the wingers. 

I think Yunus is an 8 Stephy and Mcateer wingers

Till he gets sent off

[Dahnsouff]

Nice to see Casadei start, and Yunus, will certainly be interesting

 

And Kelechi. 

[Tommy Fresh]

Let's see how it goes, does feel like he's taken a lot out of the middle, especially away at Norwich.
