BrettNUFC Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Finished above us last year without spending £40million And...? Not quite sure what your point is here. Only 3 points behind us So you're point is they are only 3 points behind us when i haven't even mentioned us in any post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Hughton has spent money but they are still one of the weaker squads in the premier. I'm not sure a new manager is going to make any difference there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 when you look at the squad he had he's probably spent about the minimum you could expect. Look at what Southampton, Cardiff etc have spent too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure a new manager is going to make any difference there. I think he'll have these in a relegation fight imo, and i'm not sure he'll survive it. The league is stronger this year and although they've improved personnel, i haven't seen any improvement in their performances to date. Struggle to score goals, even with RVW up front.

TRon Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Over reliant on crosses are Norwich Their crossing is really pretty good quality from the games I've seen, their problem is they don't have players to attack them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUFC_Chris Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Personally I think if Norwich DO sack Hughton, they'll almost definitely go down. Keep him, although they might struggle, he will keep them up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time they go forward - they'll cross it. Nothing creative from the middle. No link-up man either. Needed a #10 as much as a striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football managers can rarely dictate which players they are buying these days, I would imagine when they were buying a forward it was a case of buy a number 9 or a number 10. You can't have both.

Hanshithispantz Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 If Hughton doesn't pick things up, he'll be soon be gone with the amount of money he's spent. Aye. Arsenal, Man U and Man City are 3 of their next 4. Soz Chris. You're done for. Nice bloke, but not a PL manager imo. He's done well to carve a managerial career for himself but think he's hit his heights with Norwich, think he'll step down a level once he goes from this. :lol: Unbelievable.

BrettNUFC Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 I just find it proper hilarious you commenting on any manager not being good enough for their side. Just think Norwich have a wise board and could appointment a manager who could take them to another level. Lambert done well, but felt the Hughton appointment was a bit of a let down for them as i don't think he's capable of taking them to the next level and fancy them to struggle this season. Obviously others might like CH and think it's best Norwich will get, i don't know. Personally just think they should take a gamble and get rid of him, similar to what Southampton did with Adkins.

Ch just has preferred RVW and Elmander ahead of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Just to back up my previously posted opinion with reasons - Upcoming fixtures(these are legal now, right?) four teams on 7 points and Palace on 3. 15. Swansea next 5: Sunderland(h), West Ham(h), Cardiff(a), Stoke(h), Fulham(a) 16. Stoke next 5: West Brom(h), Manchester United(a), Southampton(h), Swansea(a), Sunderland(h) 17. Fulham next 5: Crystal Palace(a), Southampton(a), Manchester United(h), Liverpool(a), Swansea(h) 18. Norwich next 5 : Arsenal(a), Cardiff(h), Manchester City(a), West Ham(h), Newcastle United(a) 19. Crystal Palace next 5: Fulham(h), Arsenal(h), West Brom(a), Everton(h), Hull(a) Can't see Norwich and Palace improving their position too much. Swansea has the objectively easiest set of fixtures to get points and pull away. Stoke has some tricky ones and could swap place with Fulham. Fulham themselves have a tough run in but Norwich's is worse and I can't see them escaping 18th, nor Palace 19th. I have a weird feeling Jol is safe as long as he puts a little more daylight between 17th and 18th. I think it will be increased pressure on Hughton, Hughes and Holloway.
