Plenty of times the forwards got into space

but played a terrible ball or dallied on it too much. Actually watch that phase of play in our games carefully and you will see it's the same thing over and over and again. No quality, no composure, no end product.

- Don’t disagree with him making players better etc (NCFC) - hoolahan, Mar 6, 22:21:40
  - But is that Farke's fault that Norwich have had to sell so many quality players? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:27:48
    - Because he’s had players whilst here and even then we don’t look like scoring (NCFC) - hoolahan, Mar 6, 22:37:03
      - Wes is hardly prolific even when starting regularly (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:45:36
- Has he explained yet why nelson was dropped? Having our best striker playing would help (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Mar 6, 22:20:13
  - No idea, but he hasn't exactly been on form recently has he? (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:29:20
    - Yes he has, he's actually been playing very well albeit his scoring record does not (NCFC) - Jim, Mar 6, 22:35:14
      - Disagree that he has been playing very well (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:37:13

  - Agree there's a lack of movement in behind through the middle in behind (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:25:44
    - There’s a lack of movement and urgency all over the pitch (NCFC) - Ben, Mar 6, 22:31:29
      - A lot of slow players tbf, the squad lacks pace (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:32:24
  - Yep, and the ability to step up the pace of the play as you enter the final third (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Mar 6, 22:22:19

        This is rubbish and proves to me you post with an agenda (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 22:51:01
        
        Hang on a mo. What is meca's "agenda", other than holding a different view to you? (n/m) (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Mar 6, 23:05:21
        
        Being ultra critical of every manager since Hughton (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 23:16:28
        
        wrong again (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Mar 6, 23:26:57
        
        Thanks for proving my point :) (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 23:29:12
        
        You just proved him right though. :p (NCFC) - thebigfeller, Mar 6, 23:29:06
        
        in fairness, it's only a few idiots who play the man not the ball (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Mar 6, 23:58:52
        
        Yet you regularly engage with this so called "idiot" (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 7, 00:18:17
        
        wrong (n/m) (NCFC) - Mecagoenti, Mar 6, 23:00:52
        
        Fantastic argument. Seriously, drop the agenda, it makes Norwich discussion here far worse (n/m) (NCFC) - Common Sense Police, Mar 6, 23:02:16
  - Bingo. It's possession with next to no intent, (n/m) (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Mar 6, 22:21:16
