It's a amazing that a football superpower like england only has one competent goalkeeper and garbagemen like Townsend and Zaha in contention for a place in the squad for the world cup.

Zaha and Townsend are only in contention in Michael Owen's mind

BSE how does Redmond look for Norwich these days? Often on MotD he looks really good because he's the only Norwich player who does anything going forward.

Better than Zaha and Townsend have been this year but not good enough for England. He can skin people all day long but then just shanks it into the stands. He tends to play better for England u21s than us because they use him on the right where he has to cross it instead of cutting inside.

Jose said they have no bids for Lukaku and he's pleased with his progress. Presumably he will stay or be reloaned.

With Lukaku's agent openly admitting he's been talking to Spurs and Everton (but not Swansea), its quite likely that he's been told to find a new club.

Neil Adams as caretaker is heartfelming as gently caress considering how he was treated by Glenn Roeder

Caretaker for the rest of the season or will they get a new manager in asap?

For the rest of the season I think.

When Roeder was our manager, Neil Adams was co-commentator and fans phone in host on Radio Norfolk, and just starting his career as a coach working with our under 14s or something. After a particularly shocking performance Adams criticised Roeder's team selection and tactics, not in a particularly aggressive manner, and Roeder went mental in a press conference:

oval office posted:

“And yet these nasty, irritating people that try and cause confrontation between myself and a player, between myself and supporters, are just bad people.

“They are people who will never manage a football club, they have little idea of managing a football club and yet they have a voice that reaches our supporters. Me and Huckerby get on very well. I don't have favourites, I don't do favourites. I pick the best team and at the end of the day it is my call.

“It is easy being a manager when you are one of 25,000 sitting in the stand or if you are an ex-player who is now working for the media who will never manage anything better than an under-10 team, thinking he knows best - and you know what I'm talking about, and I will deal with that, trust me.

He went on to get Adams fired because he's a nasty petty oval office.

After Roeder left Adams got his job back and worked his way up to be youth team manager and won the youth cup last season, and now he's a Premier League manager :3:

Surely Malky would be right up there as both a popular and likely choice?

My heart says Malky but then my heart says that about everything. I think it will depend what division we're in, stay up and I think Neil Lennon will take over, go down and it will probably be Malky.

I really don't get the Hull name change issue. Hull City Tigers is historical, already in place, and sounds much better. I know the owners were saying that sponsors wanted it changed to Hull Tigers but what makes that better exactly or more attractive (it isn't)?

Hull City Tigers isn't historical though, no-one ever calls a team by their real name and then their nickname, its one or the other.

Yeah, I just read up on it some. Didn't realize they changed it to that prior to this premier league season. I don't really get the owners argument since Hull itself sounds pretty distinct to me.

They don't like the word City because there are too many other clubs with City in the name apparently.

Didn't catch the Fulham-Norwich game, how did Norwich play?

We returned to the diamond we used in the Championship under Lambert. Looked better going forward than usual but were nervy and because of the formation we lacked width and didn't have the invention to create anything through a congested middle.

Stockdale pulled off two great saves and Snodgrass hit the bar with a free kick but really it was just another one of those days where we could have played all evening without scoring.

St Evan Echoes posted:

They were good and unlucky. If they had bought a competent striker instead of the Wolf they'd be safe by now

Hughton brought in 6 strikers during his reign and they scored 8 goals between them, his tactics halved Holt's scoring rate, made him want to leave and drove Morison to literal depression, even if we had a competent striker they would score gently caress all.

I dont understand how Lambert was so good at Norwich but has been so mind bogglingly bad at Villa.

The "you don't know what your doing" line gets trotted out a lot when teams and managers are struggling, but I think in this case it looks genuinely true.

He's not been bad at Villa though really, he's doing as well as you'd expect results wise from a club that was in an a proper state when he took over and is now desperately trying to cut costs.

It is weird how his style of play has gone a bit backwards and his tactical versatility seems to have disappeared though.
