MATCHWATCH : Norwich City (h) sponsored by as tough as it gets

[Sutekh]

No strikers at all starting tonight



But two on the bench

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Aluko false 9?

[Snowflake Royal]

LOL set your stall out early.

[Stranded]

Rotating false 9 then I reckon - interesting tactic.

[Snowflake Royal]

Aluko false 9?

He's a fake footballer so sounds about right







BOOM BOOM

[Sutekh]

Note there’s no Southwood on the bench - another injury ?

[windermereROYAL]

Baldock transfer request incoming? (please) only fit senior striker and he still can`t get a game

[Barney]

Note there’s no Southwood on the bench - another injury ?

Why not. Join the army of 'sick notes' we have at our club. Incredible.

[Bristol Paul]

You saw it with Swift a couple of seasons ago

Players who play the sort of role/position of those two will be criticised more than the standard player because there’s a greater expectation on them

Absolutely.
It is because they are in the game so much that mistakes are bound to happen, amongst all the good stuff,with both of these players looking to be creative.

It is a lot easier playing the mainly defensive roles like Laurent and Rino-they are generally facing play and just moving the ball on.
Talking of those two I would like to see both doing a bit more in bringing the ball out and there were signs of this in the past two games.

As for the Norwich game, my first ever Elm Park match was against them with the result being 4-4.
I would (presumably as would others) take that but am not expecting it.

Well Mr Prutton of Sky has given us the nod for Norwich, so we're definitely doomed. Pretty obvious he didn't look at the injury list....

The guys clueless, I’m not even convinced he looks at the two team names before hitting his random number generator button

Wouldn't blame him at all to be honest.

[Bristol Paul]

Baldock transfer request incoming? (please) only fit senior striker and he still can`t get a game

Says something doesn’t it. To be fair, he’s not suited for a lone role, and that’s all that’s ever really been played since he arrived.

[Sutekh]

Well let’s hope VP has a plan rather than just randomly clutching at straws.

[Royal Ginger]

Well let’s hope VP has a plan rather than just randomly clutching at straws.

line-up on the goal line and hope for a point?

[AthleticoSpizz]

Well let’s hope VP has a plan rather than just randomly clutching at straws.

well, if being fifth is clutching at straws...we’ll take the ‘random’

[AthleticoSpizz]

Aluko to take the inevitable penalty...to complete his hat+trick

[Westwood52]

Baldock transfer request incoming? (please) only fit senior striker and he still can`t get a game

Doubt it no one else would pay 20k a week salary for him.

[WoodleyRoyal]

Big game for Gibson tonight. Put in a good performance and we don’t need to find finances to cover the lb position in January.

[Westwood52]

No strikers at all starting tonight



But two on the bench

Is that our weakest bench for years ?

[Hound]

That’s a proper rotten team

Never mind, best we can hope for with all the injuries

[bcubed]

Well if ever there was a game when we can’t afford to concede early.....
