Could go either way

Don't think we'll make the playoffs this season and therefore next season is where I see the bigger picture.

At least one or both of Sainz and Sarge will be sold. Gunn will be off as we consider him too expensive for his level. Replacing these players will be hard.

I'm confident the Americans will back Knapper to spend in the summer but the jury is out at the moment for his signings so far. I still don't fully trust him in that department yet.

I think Hoff is and will be a very good coach. If he gets the tactics down next season, it will be a joy to watch Norwich.

We have a lot of potential in this squad and they will all get better as we progress.

        What is your team with the available squad tonight and don’t say start Sarge as he clearly (NCFC) - Vrannncic, Jan 22, 22:14:27
        
        it all smells of desperation...... (NCFC) - usacanary, Jan 22, 22:11:40
