Norwich vs Nottingham Forest (away) 8th November 2014

[Brian Fantana]

Well, well, well. Outplayed and looking at sea with yet another system and out of the blue . . .  right winger Howson scores!

If we can keep him fit Howson could be huge for us, I think he is our most skilful midfielder and is a nice option over Wes for the longer term.

Oh dear Grabban, still can't get that goal that might change things. That was a sitter in anyone's book.

 

[Din]

We're completely dominating this now. Grabban should've just made it 2 though. Forest have gone to pot since we scored.

Cuellar as well has been superb, have to wonder why we kept persisting with Russell Martin there.

 

[eatonparkboy]

This is a good a performance so far, composed and measured. No mistakes now.

 

[eatonparkboy]

Can someone explain that last action. We are on the break. Jerome felled. We have the advantage with Howson. Ref calls it back. Soon as O'Neill taps it, ref blows up. How did we gain out of that?

 

[Suffolk Canary]

Forrest fans really starting to get on their backs.   If we got a second goal early doors it would completely kill the game.  Forrest players look like they have 0 confidence,  they're there for the taking

 

[Din]

With the exception of the first 15 minutes, that first half performance was our best in a long time. Let's keep that it boys.

 

[Dandy Mountfarto]

I'd love a second goal right about now

 

[Din]

Getting a little bit nervous right now.

 

[eatonparkboy]

Pity Grabban still hasn't found the knack or we would be out of sight. As it is a loose 4-4-2 maybe swap him for Hooper?

 

[Brian Fantana]

I'd be inclined to swap Jerome for Redmond at this point, plenty of room in behind them to run into.

 

[Din]

I personally would take off Grabban and Tettey (simply as he's been booked) and bring on Redmond and Murphy, and play 4-5-1, with loads of pace on the counter attack.

 

[Dandy Mountfarto]

Normally in this situation we'd bring on another centre mid to shore things up but they are all already on the pitch

 

[eatonparkboy]

Tettey has been outstanding and let the others play so even though booked I think we would be less of a team, today, without him.

 

[eatonparkboy]

Didn't pick that substitution. Jerome is very good in defending set pieces so we may miss him.

 

[eatonparkboy]

I'm afraid he is becoming Kyle Liability

 

[Dandy Mountfarto]

Well thats been coming hasn't it

 

[eatonparkboy]

Still having to rely on Turner on his left foot.  He gets turned every time on that foot. Its just for standing on.

 

[The Great Mass Debater]

Why is Assombalonga free in the area there? Why is his marker not tight?

 

[eatonparkboy]

Hanging on now when we should have been out of sight.
