Team Sheet & Tactics For Norwich

Image for Team Sheet & Tactics For Norwich

Norwich indoors it is.

The tactics board is common sense but of course we are trapped in 1986 tinnitus  nightmare where the only song playing is Genesis’ Land Of naffin’ Confusion. 

The facts of the matter are that Bale drifting diagonally in just clogs up space that Rafa and Modders could be using to far better effect. 

fig.1=Bale crosses from the left, fig.2=Pathe News Boy feeds the hungry with neat through balls, fig.3=Lennon crosses from the left.

I’d bin Arry and install Pleat. Millions and millions of pounds worth of players and a manager that either doesn’t know what he’s doing or he doesn’t care.  The crowd yet again had to instruct Arry and after a few rounds for Azza he came on.  

Arry fans point to the mid table mediocrity we’ve endured in the past. I remember those years and have no desire to return to them. But let’s try and do at least a passable impression of intelligent people here. Yes we’re doing well, but despite ourselves. And what have we to fear by wanting to upgrade the tactician? A child could tell you what’s wrong, yet brain surgeons are telling us we must not unsettle the squad. I guess losing a 10 point lead didn’t unsettle them at all…

Bale is bugging the hell out of me (had you noticed?) and so I ask you this. Look back at his best moments and tell me where he was. He was on the bloody left.

Walker needs to focus on being a good defender. I don’t care how fast he is. What the hell has that got to do with the price of fish? Benny’s useful going forward, but his crosses haven’t had Barca or Real clucking. 

Norwich are no fools and I sincerely hope Arry engages his brain before sending out the troops.

    Phil McNulty’s referencing Wenger’s old French phrase to predict a United title win: “When a horse smells the stables it is difficult to stop them.”, rings equally true for Harry. Unfortunately for Spurs, those stables aren’t anywhere near WHL.

    It’s a 3 pointer must. No ifs no buts.

    I’m a bit slow I know but did we not beat Swansea and Bolton fairly comfortably a week or so back ? Maybe they are not top draw but we still did the job. I also deplore our terrible run against the better teams but the question is what gives us the best chance of finishing the season well ? Changing the manager – now – really ?

    It’s not gonna happen and it would not make any sense as even if Fergie or the special one were somehow to appear in the dug out this pm there would be no guarantee that a complete change of style to their ideologies would change anything in the short term.

    The Harry out now stuff is just moaning and moaning gets you nowhere.

    The best approach if we really want to influence the team is for everyone to chant the tactics. We sang that Bale plays on the left and he went back to the left then we called for Lennon and Lennon came on.

    Harry is obviously listening we just need to shout out whatever we want loud and clear.

      All knows Twitchy has a price on his head hence not shown the door,Danny and Co has it all sorted with FA TWITCHY OUT(asap). :winke:

      • LLL says:

        Yeah, could be that. Or… it could be because sacking a manager who is still on course to deliver your best ever season as chairman might be seen by many to be one of the most idiotic decisions a football chairman has ever taken in the history of idiotic decisions by football chairmen.

        If the deal had been done with the FA and Levy wanted to accelerate the switch because of some recent shite results then I’m sure the FA would be just as happy to move the date forwards to accommodate – compensation unchanged. Your argument, as far as it can be deemed one, holds no water I’m afraid.

        • phil McCrackin says:

          HaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHA HA HA,just pissed myself.

        • LLL says:

          Another well thought-out, constructive response. Sad to hear that your bladder holds less water than your arguments though, you should see the doc, you can get pills for that nowadays, or a nappy.

        • SerfCity says:

          “on course” you say…

    • melcyid says:

      we are close to becoming 1 single unit where the players, manager and supporters are in one accord.give it a couple more games and redknapp will respond immediatley to the crowds advice and then we will be sorted

    • Harry Hotspur says:

      ODM I think the years of mid-table mediocrity have worn you down.

      Moaning gets you nowhere? Clearly you were setting fire the bogs when you should have been in your history lessons.

      I do like your idea for chanting the solutions though. That’s inspired Even though it would lose us the element of surprise we would be insanely good value to watch.

      To the beat of ‘Dawson For Eng-land’ we could have, “Bale, stay on the le-ft”, Azza cut in my s-on”, “Brad, come off your li-ne”, “Kyle stay in de-fence”

      That would be spiffing.

      • Victor Meldrew says:

        What about chanting, “Let`s equalise twice before the other lot score”…yes i can see how we would lose the element of surprise but i`d risk it.
