Not convinced with their defence at all, but their attack is actually entertaining to watch.

Perhpas the American stream I'm watching is overplaying it - half the players didn't go back into the dressing room after the match. Sat on the pitch and in the stands.

Farke also dropped Puki and Cantwell who are arguable two of their best players.

Suppose it's par for the course for a relegated team though. It's never a happy environment when you're losing constantly.

But a win for Norwich today could have helped massively. It's now gone from having a bit of a chance to norfolk n chance.

Tbh, I always thought they had the players to put a little run on.

They have some real quality but not enough experience and they try to be too expansive against better sides, which costs you.

Looks like either some dissent creeping in our they’re just utterly dejected. Can’t see why you’d drop Pukki & Cantwell in a very winnable game?!

No that's what baffled me, if Norwich were going to have any chance of escaping the drop, today was a must win, and yet Farke left his 2 top scorers out :? The equivalent example would be Sean leaving McNeil & Wood on the sidelines, if we had a relegation 6 pointer, i'm sure such a decision would certainly lead to some robust discussion on here.

Not sure of the stats but hasn’t Pukki been off his best for a while?

If my maths are correct. If Bournemouth and Watford lose today we will be mathematically safe from relegation. Not that we were going down but to be safe with 6 games remaining is a fantastic effort by Sean and the players. UTC

Only thing I can think of is that the manager has accepted relegation and so wanted to see other players.

I hope Brentford can pip WBA to second place. Then get a team like Forest coming up with them. I think teams like Fulham and WBA would be more likely to stay up.

Brooks at Bournemouth could be a great signing providing he is fully recovered from injury. Billing could also do well under Sean’s guidance
