The Fish 11074 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 They're in really good form, 4 wins and a draw from the last 5 league games, just put 5 past Forest. Only Brighton and Huddersfield have more points at home than Norwich, they're also the top goal scorers at home in the league. I'm predicting a loss, maybe 3-1 to the Drunken Delia's.

wykikitoon 21481 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Aye, this is going to be a real tester. Please no Colback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 5572 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Draw IMO. It's away and Norwich will fancy it. They'll attack us. Our problem recently has been teams shutting up shop. Norwich are unlikely to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lackie92 1 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Brighton's run of games on the lead up to facing us are more favourable than ours. A win would be class but I think we will drop points here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 22513 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Then coming at us could play into our hands .. if Gayle is fit. Any update there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11074 Posted February 13, 2017 Author Share Posted February 13, 2017 Still no weaknesses No significant weaknesses. There isn't one part of our game that significantly impedes our chances of winning a game. That doesn't mean we've no shortcomings, just no achilles heel. There was a lot of chatter before the game about our perceived weakness at defending set pieces, but in that game Clark and Lascelles were imperious throughout the game and dealt with everything that came at them, and when called upon Darlow claimed balls into his box like picking apples from a tree. We see areas to improve on, of course, but there isn't an area of our game that troubles me going into most games in this division. We're not playing brilliantly, and teams are digging in deeper and deeper against us. So I've predicted a win for Norwich because they're a decent Championship team and they've players with the ability to pull something from nothing.

Dr Gloom 22513 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 (edited) Distribution from our left back isn't a weakness? I can think of a fairly significant ginger weakness in midfield. Edited February 13, 2017 by Dr Gloom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howay 12496 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I'm fairly confident we'll pick something up from this, especially if Gayle is fit. As Rayvin said if they're high scorers at home they may fancy their chances and open up a bit to chase the win, in the games that teams have done this we've mostly won. They have a good scoring rate but they've also let in a canny amount of goals this season and we have an excellent away record. I've went for 3-0 (as I do basically every game) but it'll no doubt be a mental score like 5-3 or something as last couple of seasons our games against these have been crackers.

The Fish 11074 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 (edited) Distribution from our left back isn't a weakness? I can think of a fairly significant ginger weakness in midfield. Not a significant weakness in our ability to win games. The Ginger Pirlo doesn't start regularly enough to be considered a real weakness and Dummet's lack of attacking ability hasn't significantly weakened our chances of scoring. We'd be better if both of those players were improved upon, of course, but we're not weakened enough by them to damage our chance of winning games. Put it this way, Colback played 90 minutes against Wolves and was shite throughout, but we still looked fairly comfortable and good for the win. Dummett's flank offered bugger all in attack until Atsu came on and yet we still created enough chances to win the game. I'm fairly confident we'll pick something up from this, especially if Gayle is fit. As Rayvin said if they're high scorers at home they may fancy their chances and open up a bit to chase the win, in the games that teams have done this we've mostly won.
