Pre Match Norwich v Leicester 28/08

[Brown Nose]

Excuse me for starting this a bit early but I saw an interesting stat on Norwich. These are their PL results since they last played us (and won 1-0 in Feb 2020): LLLLLLLLLLLL

12 losses in a row and only one goal scored - and that was by Buendia who has now left. They've conceded 32 goals in those games too.

They are absolute dogshit against pretty much everyone except us. We last beat them with the earthquake goal in 2016.

I was there when they beat us at their place in 2020. It was shit.

It was ****ing royally shit. Just pre Covid and we had a really annoying VAR call against Sir Ian Nacho.

Yep and the “away pub” that was designated was absolutely shite. Couldn’t get in any pubs in the town, despite us being a reputable group (honestly). Just a poor excuse for a day out.

Perez suspended, weak at the back and Vestegaard likely to be out a while so we need to find a different way to tighten up back there...

All means I think we will switch to this for Norwich - and cue complaints of switching to a back 5 to play Norwich.

Kasper
Ricardo, Castagne, Soyuncu, Amartey, Thomas
Ndidi, Youri
Maddison, Barnes
Vardy

The over obliging Leicester City are heading to town.

Norwich will be rubbing their hands together after the run they've had

I think that’s right. Can always push Ricardo up and Castagne out if needed. Side looks much better without Perez in it to be honest.

Yep.

Is Vesty allowed to play on crutches?

Can Bertrand play with Covid?

I'd like to see Nacho's efforts for dragging us along at the end of last season rewarded by giving him more than 10minutes. Stick him and vardy up front. Who gets dropped is pretty irrelevant...

 

[tedfoxxx]

Seriously Sparky is going to propose a team consisting of Arthur Chandler, Dennis Wise and Professor Yaffle one of these days.

Although to be fair Bertrand might be back if he didn’t have bad symptoms.

Agreed. BR is showing feck all respect for Iheanacho this season. Five minutes at the end after his impact carrying us for months is awful.

To be totally honest, he might as well go and play somewhere where he'll be more appreciated.

Professor Yaffle

He was on my bird feeder a couple of weeks back. Was either him or Arsene Wenger. His mouth was full of my fat balls.

I made myself double over laughing a few weeks back when I returned from a run to the garden centre to get stuff for a gardening sesh. My missus asked ‘did you get fat balls?’ And I replied in standard fashion ‘no it’s just these jeans’

Oh how we laughed.

Some shops brand them as energy balls.....so i won't buy them.

 

[Blue Maniac]

Can we play some of the women’s team instead of Amartey and Söyünçü?
