    Mannion is good at claiming high balls and very poor at long shots, we know this. With that in mind the defence and midfield need to be killing the option for a strike from distance which they have done very effectively in the past few games but not here. If they can’t stop it then he’s not a good keeper to rely on to keep that kind of shot out

    We’ve reacted well since the goal

    We've not responded badly to going behind, but equally Norwich dont seem in much of a rush at the moment to get a second

    And THAT is why Mannion is allowed in this side.

    Great save!

    Nice build up, sees Chambers ultimately putting in a cross to no red shirt in the box

    Mannion saves a shot from Maghoma on the edge of the box, far too easy for Norwixh

    Nice save Mannion keeps it at 0-1 at the expense of a corner

  • That’s why Mannion shouldn’t be starting.  
    You were saying,?

    Perhaps we should play 2 goalkeepers.......Mannion to come out & collect the ball and Kaminski to save the shots 🤷‍♂️

    No shame in that, they've had a disastrous season

    If they do not improve, Norwich will win this 4-0, we are shocking

    You can see the difference with the confidence in how they pass the ball

    Say what you like about a Conor Coventry but he’s one of the only players in this team that looks remotely comfortable on the ball.

    I agree but I think Coady closes down the shot for the goal better

    Campbell gets double marked, loses the ball, no one goes to try and help him out and give an option!!!

    TC caught offside

    Easy to be wise after the event but additional support in front of back 4 - like Coady would have stopped that goal. Midfield needs to defend that area infront of penalty box.

    What is Campbell doing on the pitch?

    Looked very tight, looked like he was behind the Norwich player to me

    Nathan Jones picked him in the starting eleven, pretty simple reasoning

    Good cross from TC but the keeper just beats Dykes to it

    Both Championship sides last time I looked.

    Same level.

    (They're just playing a bit better)

    Clearly been told not to press the keeper or back line much

    We are pressing quite well tbf. Norwich are just very good at moving the ball.

    Nice ball through the middle from Defence almost finds TC, but beaten to it by the Defender
