woodsaint1 Posted 31 October, 2021 Share Posted 31 October, 2021 Watching this Norwich/Leeds game and both are very poor.

My god this has been one fo the most boring 45 mins of football ive seen. I imagine the neutral weren’t queuing up to watch us dismantle Watford yesterday, but at least it was pretty exciting.

SNSUN Posted 31 October, 2021 Share Posted 31 October, 2021 1 minute ago, John Boy Saint said: Norwich don’t seem to have any belief Still baffling why they don't play Gilmour. He's looked decent when I've seen him. I think they miss Cantwell too but I heard him and Farke have had a bit of a falling out. Farke's 3-5-2 system effectively means leaving out their most talented players for workhorses and it doesn't appear to be working. Norwich back their manager but he's definitely taking them down again as it is. Having said all that, watch them beat us in November... 🙄😑 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheaf Saint Posted 31 October, 2021 Share Posted 31 October, 2021 Would have preferred a draw to keep Leeds a few points below us, but hey ho. Norwich are that bad you can't reasonably expect them to take points off anyone at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 10 games they have scored 3 goals and conceded 25. They are a piss poor team and as long as we maintain our performance levels of late then we'll beat them comfortably. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
