The idea of Nigel's is to cross everything into the box and give up on playing football but playing gambling football instead. Hoping for a lucky cross and... yeah, I don't get him, pretty bad management for this game in particular.

Such boring football. Is hard to watch..we look like we won't score if the game will last till morning.

Semenyo should not start, he is not good enough to be a first team regular. Conway is more talented than him. I wouldn't take Nakhi off for Martin which is kinda useless.

Scott was very weak also,  bad passes and no vision from him. Reading is a shit team but we can't attack for our sake.

That was 50% handball penalty. I have seen them give pens for that. 

The second was a clear hand ball but outside the box. The referee loves us a bit haha. Usually the opposite.

It will be embarassing if we let them push like that. I mean they will have their biggest win this season ( by goals maring  ) Hope the team will wake up because it is looking bad.

I watched Barca and City same time, I may wrong but for me was probably the best player on the pitch. He is very mature and that is what we miss at the back. Kalas back soon and we good with these 3 guys. Naismith for cover or changed position and Vyner has to play as a cover also. Vyner i think improved a bit but he is no way near Kalas or Atkinson level.

Good to break that loosing rate, and looking forward to another two wins

Let's hope we can avoid that last three places. The rest is not important. This season is certain not for improving but for surviving.

We are gonna lose that and the whole forum will start worrying for relegation haha. That close is this league and these are the supporters. But as I said, the team will have good results, a top half finish, but we are on a bad run, we will recover. 

Today's game will not be good probably but 4 games without a win, we are used with that, I can't complain. We will bounce back in the end.

We play to slow. Easy to predict and too many crosses. We have to play our games like 1 month ago. Quick attacks.

anyone got a stream please?

You got a few streams here. You neede to have UK IP adress.

Game

Good, so i don't have to bother finding a working stream. Let's hope for a better game Tuesday.

It will be a difficult game, but we got the quality, we can put a nice effort for sure.

All I care about is to take less risks in defence and put a nice game like usual high up the pitch.

Is another game that wil show if we are capable of top 6 or not. Games like this and Norwich can make the difference. Of course Burnley is favorite to win but this league it is very competitive and we got our chances.

We were the better team today. A good defeat that will make us play even better. We have chances for top 6 I think. With some loans during December we really can do good things.

That is the life, we concede goals that we could avoid that is good. Because they didn't beat us at football and they know we were better. 

Heads up guys ! We have a team that plays football, that is a thing missing for ages here. We can make another good run. Every defeat this season could be our win. I think in almost all games, we were the better team.

No team dominated us this season and we say that after 10 games, that is not a small thing. 

Good night ! I enjoyed watching this.

Is a positive game, the team can learn things from this. We made Norwich to look like a bottom half team for a lot of time.

We will win but we will lose games also, the team have to learn from it. Loosing away to Norwich is not the end of the world, if we get defeats this is one of them that you will see it coming.

Just think about it, we beat ourselves they didn't beat us. Only goals from mistakes, and mistakes can be fixed. We were not beat at football that s for sure.

Didn’t you say you were turning off to watch the Man City game?

Yes, but you know I couldn't do that...I was just angry on that Scotish player. I would do that under Lee Johnson but somehow I always believe this team to have good attacks no matter the score.

Guys this is something we don't get here for a lot of years. This team has spirit, and character. I wrote off Naismith and I still do but this is not about Naismith.

This is about a lovely team full of youngsters that after 2-0 down, keep their head up, and they prove what they can do. They prove that 8 games unbeaten were not just lucky games. This group of players is something we never had for decades.

It is 2-1 ok, but this is an unfair score, we were the better team, and we play away. Trust me, Norwich city manager will not have a calm speech during half time, he is scared and he should be because we are CITY. 

I feel we can get back in game, but even if we don't, I can take this defeat, the way we could control the game the way we pass feels very confident to bring more goals. We will have Kalas back we have Semenyo also.

No matter what happens this game, but this will be a very interesting season, mark my words because I am a very pesimist supporter usually.

Qoute me and say if I am wrong. Maybe I don't know anything about footballs, but this is my opinion.

Disagree. He's a great defender, but takes way too many risks in possession. Just fo the simple things, 1st head in to touch, 2nd play the simple pass, especially in a 3 at the back

That makes him a bad player. That is the difference between good and bad players. He is passing where he shouldn't. We cant assume risk having plyers like that, he is literally pissing on the other players effort. He has some good touch, good tackles but that's why he is in championship, because of reckless moving on the pitch sometimes and because of taking risks that he can't fulfill.

Going to watch City vs Dortmund, no reason. I move on and I m thinking about our next game. Hope to not be 5-0. That Naismith I can't wait to have Kalas and he becoming a cover player.

He is an awfull defender, his passes are shit also. Every game he has two mistakes, and good teams will always punish you, and Norwich is a class over us as a team. Too bad for the other players, we don't look bad in attack or midfield but a bad CB can ruin an entire game.

Had to read that first line twice, thought you were providing too much information the first time.

Same hahah

Do we have a chance to keep him all season ? If we go up do we have a chance to keep him next season ? 

May this season be the "one" ? That season when we go up despite no chances at the start ? Many teams did that with worse players than us today...Hull City in 2008, and Barsnley in playoff, Luton in playoffs..I mean the league is unpredictable. If we keep the good spirit, I may sound crazy but we can make it somehow. Some luck...some nice form and keeping the best players. This winter will be huge if we will be top 6.  

Semenyo will go 20+ for sure, I am sure wells will be 10 goals at least. We have one of the good attacking side in this League. With Kalas comming back and Atkinson growing same as Naismith with his crazy pases...we have a decent team.

Hope we can keep Semenyo and sell him for 30+ ...that will fix our financial aspects and make us build a better team next season.

Why is Massengo off ? Injured ? He was not that bad..hope he is ok and he will stay in the first team. We need his agility.

Joe is not really on his moment. We need to get better at closing spaces around the box and to mark better in defending crossing situations.

Other than that, we look good in attack. We don't really miss Semenyo at this moment, this new gem can be even better than him but I am wondering how good can be with them together in striker positions. I hope Nigel wont move Semenyo back to the wing because he is not an winger. 

Come on my team ! Let' send them back with an upset face.

For me this Cardiff Shtty is one of the clubs that I really can't stand, even before I found out it is our derby.

First game in ages when both halfs were good. I can't find a man of the match because the team worked well like the all 11 players were just ONE. I kinda liked the start of the second half, the passing and the confidence of build up play. You could see Dasilva can dribble if the game is positive and the players are relaxed. You could see Massengo looking very nice in my opinion because the pressure was off.

It is all about the mental state of the players. A lot of the players in this team can improve ( young lads ) but they can play better also with their curent level. Nigel has to find some way to keep the motivated, calm and to have faith in their forces as individuals, and from there as a Complete Team.

Vyner i can't say that I liked him. The team had a lot of nice pressing and he had an easier game but I still miss Kalas to replace him. I don't see Vyner as a starting player.

GG City !

Norwich are bottom of the league  did the bookmakers forecast that? This club really has the worst most negative pessimistic  fans in the country or anywhere else for that matter.

You don't have to be so acid you know ? I am optimistic to stay in the league. The thing with "3 years till Premier League" is just a donut sold by SL. 

We will get there in time but now we are just a small team in Championship. You can blame FFP for that but being realistic doesn't make me pesimistic. I have faith, and we will stay in this league, but trust me... it won't be a less stresfull season that last ones. 

Bad looking.  The bookmakers were right. Only 4 teams had a better change of relegation than our side if you would place a bet 3 weeks ago. It is seems we will fight for that.  I have faith that we will remain in Championship. It will not be easy but we can do it.
