I'll get pelters but I actually think that's good timing for Jakub.

 

He was getting caught up in all the mess at the back, some dreadful distribution, making silly mistakes. 

 

Actually don't think a few games with a ridiculously experienced goalkeeper who can shout the odds a bit will do us any harm.

Dreadful distribution? You wait until you see more ‘Begoball™️’ in action. He’s old school with his kicking.

He's about the only player at the club willing to put a tackle in.

And yet he also loves standing off players allowing them far too much time to cross or progress into the area. A strange combo that makes him a defensive asset and a defensive liability often within a matter of seconds of the same game.

So Norwich have statistically their worst manager ever, fans are on his and their Sporting Director's back and they haven't gathered a single point at home so far this season.

 

We're gonna smash them.

If i see Carranza 'running' like he's trogging through cow shit or Ayew taking a million touches before he plays in 4 yards, i'll lose my ****ing mind.

I'm looking for a twat-free 11.  

I'm not sure there is enough twat-frees to field a starting 11 😂😂

All the good kids are playing for England.

If you were to ask AI to give a definition of the ever obliging Leicester City, this would be the match it would reference...

Did you go to Hull? He was an absolute liability. All over the place. He's brain dead, like many of our current crop.

Begovic did not fill me with confidence on Tuesday at all. Hope he's better on Saturday.

I thought he did a decent job including the save one on one in his 45 mins.

If we lose tomorrow I don't see how Cifuentes can survive. Even a draw will leave him perilously close to the brink. And if he goes, we can all look forward to yet another manager coming in who makes a moderately promising start before the squad turns on him, our form tanks again and we all stat speculating about when he'll be sacked and replaced.

Cifuentes didn't make a promising start apart from some good chat when he joined

I'd argue that third after nine games and three points off the top was a reasonably promising start.

There's just no way of putting together a team of 11 players without at least 5 twats. The only option is to play the kids.

 

Stolarcyzk

Ricardo Nelson Okoli Aluko

Hamza James

Fatawu Monga Mavididi

Hutchinson

In the circumstances I think this is a really good shout, and a selection with the future in mind,.  Hamza isn't everyone's cup of tea, but he adds fight, energy, determination, speed, and a strong tackle - all of which are lacking in our other midfield options. He would also make the most suitable captain.

 

My only disagreement is that it's too early and big a jump for Hutchinson - would prefer Evans (if available), or even Daka who would provide a disruptional spearhead (at least he would provide a decent press in tandem  with the youngsters around him).  Page would be a useful midfield option on the bench, too.

 

We desperately need the energy and commitment these youngsters would bring.

I'd pick Evans but I think he's at the U17 World Cup. Same for Page.

 

I think any manager picking a striker with 1 goal in 50 has to be immediately sacked for gross negligence. There's no way Daka should be anywhere near the team.

We'll lose.

 

Cifuentes will get the boot.

 

Top will do an interview saying how things are going to change.

 

We'll sign Russell Martin.

 

Nothing will change.

 

We'll sack Martin in April.

 

Points deduction will take us down.

We can win this. Even by our standards they are shocking, although did have the majority of the chances against Hull and still lost.
