That's the most important bit; home or away, that is how we should be playing.Yep same as Saturday and with the shackles off again
It has to be the same team and tell Norburn we’re playing in Portsmouth and meet him there.
Far too close, tell him it's a special game in outer Mongolia, he gets captain's privilege and goes tomorrow, no return flights till July for the transfer window
The Norburn experiment hasn't worked and one of my concerns for next season is that Critchley will persist with him and we're back to square one. Why it needs a shake up in the management team whether that be Critchley or his two hoppos.
I'm clinging to the hope that his injuries haven't fully cleared up and he's not been 100%. If what we've seen is 100%, then we need to be ruthless and move him on.
Ironically, I think he and this system will be better at Championship level.
I doubt it, he's never made an impression at that level. His lack of pace and one dimensional passing won't improve in the league above or at least I highly doubt it.
Each to their own but he was exactly what we were missing the season we went down.
Absolutely but he really hasn't impressed in L1, I just don't see him suddenly improving. I do agree that we lacked leadership and experience in the middle of the park but I'll be honest, I'd much prefer that to be in the form of George Byers.
Kenny as a midfielder anchor is, was, and always will be a better option than Norburn. Connolly as an out and out defensive mid is superior to Norburn even accounting for CCs limitations, CC is decent in the air, can tackle, can put in a decent cross from his right foot, and is a decent goal threat at set pieces, all things that Norburn cannot do. What we missed the previous year was coached who didn't play inexperienced teenagers as holding mids amongst other things, like a lack of basic organisation and a simple ability to play players in positions they knew how to play.
I don't agree. Kenny was absolutely garbage that season. We needed a bit of bite and someone to keep it simple. Norburn was exactly the right player we needed.
Even to have him on the bench and come on for 10 mins would be a massive boost and if this is Goodbye he'd get a deserved send off.

He comes on at Wembley and scores the winner in the last minute
