Tavares having a daymare out there 

Was just about to say he needs subbing at half time. Too many of our attacking plays have stopped with him. A bit like Travis on a bad day,to be honest.

Not watching, Cantwell back to normal then?

He's been alright from where I'm sitting. It's Kargbo and Tavares who are having poor games in and out of possession.

Can't watch, at work, but looking at the stats we are getting buggered without conceding. 7 shots for Norwich, 1 for us, simply isn't good enough. Seems we are back to being unable to create anything. Need Ryoyo to have the ability to change that or could be a long season.

[Tom]

I don’t think Kargbo is rubbish but he’s frustrating and when we are up and running with the new signings shouldn’t be a starter 

Understand the unchanged team today and he got an assist last week but get Morishita on at half time

Taveres and Karbgo really poor today. Montgomery is the only CM on the bench though.

[J*B]

Toth, Alebiosu, Tronstad, Cantwell, Hedges, Ohashi all looking good.

Tavares and Kargbo looking terrible. 

[TugaysMarlboro]

Kargbo does look slower than last season, I'm convinced. I don't know if he's been told to slow down but Hedges looks like road runner in comparison.

Seems we’ve had 3-4 shots but some blocked

It might be my eyesight, but Hedges looks as quick as Kargbo and is obviously better on the ball (which is difficult for me to say out loud).

Clearly motivated then after his last run out...which makes it more frustrating he can't play well with any consistency.

[John]

Kargbo has been very frustrating so far — there’s generally a lack of cohesion with the ball further up the pitch

[yankfan]

Almost half and if you’re not watching, all you need to know is Hedges has been our brightest player. That’s how bad it’s been.

Subbing for who though?

If only we hadn't just sold one of the better CMs in the league and replaced him with a guy who is injured...

Cheers.

Penalty for Norwich and a red, just what we needed 🙄

Silly stuff. 

[Dreams of 1995]

Their goalkeeper has a look of John Buckley about him. Saudi or Norwich?

[OsloRover]

Honeymoon over for McLoughlin

[duckson]

Game over. 

[yankfan]

Ok and a red. Another questionable call going against us. 

[davulsukur]

Well, that's that then

[moerpho]

Oh for fucks sake….red card as well?!?

Doesnt have Travis redeeming off the ball qualities either.

Id hook him for Montgomery. 

Hard to argue with that red, and were quite lucky to just be one down.

Last man, in the box, from behind. Always going to be a red, wether you think it's a harsh call or not

Spoilt the game there the ref

[roverandout]

Wheres exiled to whinge about the ref

[RTM08]

We're going down this season. In most of our games we've looked like we might get a draw at best. Piss poor squad with no creativity and in addition to that a poor manager with no real idea how to make the most of such a poor squad either.
