Old Trafford is falling apart and our squad is pure aids. We’re on the slide lads. It’s over honestly.

We’re being run into the ground Am I the only one who isn't sure on Sessengon? wasn't he in and out of an awful Fulham team last year? Can't say I've seen any of Le Celso but hear good things, if they get him AND Dybala then it's been a very impressive window for them - think they're a little bit short in defence at right back and centre back though. You reckon any faces with come in for you today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you mean by surprise package you think you'll shock everyone and scrape 17th...then I can maybe get on board with that prediction.

Unless you mean by surprise package you think you'll shock everyone and scrape 17th...then I can maybe get on board with that prediction. Understandable cynicism. In years gone by we've made expensive panic buys without any really thought (Naismith, Van Wolfswinkel etc) and tried to survive on a hope alone. Clearly not a sustainable model to follow. We're much much better run now and we've made some solid new signings in Roberts, Drmic and Fahrmann to provide competition and back up. We've also retained the bulk of the squad that did so brilliantly in the championship last year on long term contracts, it's no coincidence that Aarons was linked with Spurs, United and Arsenal. Buendia is an unbelievable talent and if Pukki can continue his form last year, we'll be fine. Not sure about this Amadou fella we signed yesterday, he seems to only be with us for the Premier League rather than the club* but if he does a job that's fine and I guess that is something we'll have to get used to if we survive and push on in seasons to come. *Almost all the signings we've made under Webber/Farke have said that when they came they were sold on the vision of the club and the 'feeling/vibe' of the city. The combination of Stuart Webber and Daniel Farke is the best I've seen as Norwich fan, even more so than the fun filled days with Paul Lambert. They both really genuinely seem to have a love of the club and the city which is such an important thing to the fans. Rather than spunk money on reinventing the wheel (Sheffield, Villa, Fulham) we've been clever and astute I think, not rocked the boat. My only concern is there's a significant amount of Norwich fans who think we are big club and deserve to be top half of the Prem, and if we're not immediately challenging for those positions, they'll be on the back of the team and the manager which is always a worry. Time will tell, whatever happens, it should be fascinating and entertaining season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Low Value Boy Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 18 hours ago, Roux said: I think it's clear what we needed - you don't need a DoF for that. We have a huge scouting network and i think Ole wants to call the shots like most managers do - even if they have a DoF. I don't believe anything Poch says about not making decisions at Spurs - i guarantee he calls the shots and Levy makes them happen. If a DoF and a proper footballing structure above the manager is not needed then why does basically all the other top European clubs have one? Of course the Manager has a say but they work together with the DoF who comes from a footballing background when it comes to transfers and what the club wants to achieve on the pitch which is much more beneficial than doing it with someone who is better at signing up Man United's official tampon partner. We all know that Woodward only got the job because he made the club a fuckload of money through his commercial dealings rather than him being the best candidate for the job.

Scott. Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 DOF is crucial this day and age. We should be buying players that fit the club so when the next manager comes in they’re in place and the transition is easy, instead we have Moyes, LVGs, Jose’s players all here and Solskjaer probably doesn’t want 80% of them that’s why we’re in this mess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petros Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Arsenal and Spurs did some pretty good moves. City and Liverpool are really strong. It would be a disaster but how can united play in the next year's champions league? Fucking owners man. They suck treating a huge club like that.

Bucko Posted August 9, 2019 Report Share Posted August 9, 2019 Still think we're short of top class at CB. Luiz is a good stop gap though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should tide us over for a season until Saliba comes to us. Decent money from Everton for Iwobi too. Not very often us arsenal fans can say we’ve had a great transfer window.

Not very often us arsenal fans can say we’ve had a great transfer window. I agree to be fair, although I am a little bit sad to see Iwobi go, he's an excellent dribbler and great at going past people. But he does lack that killer instinct and final ball at the minute. £40 mil is more than reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2point5 Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 @Bucko great result that with pretty much the same squad as last year. Can’t wait for the new lads to start the next match. How bad was Mkhi today though?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
