If we play like today, Farke knows how we will get on.

First half? We had a good 15 minutes then that was it until 4 passes on the ground seemed to confuse Brighton and we score with our only shot on target.

Pukki will cause our defence problems and watched a bit of him last season and liked what I saw - amazing for a free transfer - there are good players out there if you look for them

Yes, like Heaton, and others on the cheap, like Barnes, Tarkowski, Mee, Trippier, Taylor, Westwood etc, etc, etc.

Anything less than 18 points from the first six games would be a poor start in your opinion.

If we’d signed a free transfer from the Danish league, many fans would be calling us cheapskates. I suspect you would be at the forefront.

Who knows whether he will or not. They played West Ham away, a similar team to us, and he didn't do much in that match.

You do make some tedious comparisons on here.

And I suppose you think Norwich are a team we can only dream of becoming with players that are far better than ours!

This may seem a bit harsh on a Monday morning so I apologise in advance, but I was just wondering if you could actually name one thing that in your opinion the club has got right in the last 3 seasons?
Wait no that's a bit unfair, I'll let you pick from within your lifetime if that helps?

Saturday’s game should be interesting.
Norwich clearly are t going to compromise their stacking principles for any team. This could work out well for us, especially at home. I could see either team winning this one by the odd goal in five or even seven.

Got some right but also wasted a hell of a lot of money and wasted in my opinion the biggest opportunity we had as a club for the last 50 years last summer in our recruitment when we were at our most lucrative.
Is that ok for you this lovely morning sir

OK they beat Citeh but listening to talksport you would think they had just won the prem, talk about OTT. The jock up his own backside has just had Delia the Lush on who next the Archbishop of Norwich and Norfolk. I think our opening day victory at reigning champions Chelsea was a bigger story but didn't get the coverage this ones getting anyway when they come unstuck next week we'll see what coverage they get then.

They've conceded 12 goals, more than anyone else so far. They look good going forward but have no idea how to defend.

Some players can do really well in their first PL season, because defenders won't know much about them etc.
Charlie Austin is a prime example, smashed in something like 18 goals in his first PL season, hasn't come close to that since.

We once signed a free transfer from Huddersfield reserves and look how that turned out......
(PS And we also once beat PL champions Man City and still went down!)
