I think its just me on this board. I live close to them and know a lot about them
I think the they're underestimated on here. Everything about the feel of their season points to them coming good and pushing on at the right time for me.
They were decent last season but have much more depth and have improved in key areas: better in goal, better central defence, better playmaking in midfield, better upfront.
They dont have money to spend in this window but are bringing in the "lads need a hand" type signings that galvanise a final push.
Their manager is unpopular with Norwich fans but is an excellant manager...perhaps just a little tactically naive away from home where he keeps playing expansive and attacking football and pushing for 2nd goals when they need to shut up shop. His record with clubs in very difficult positiona is fantastic, and he creates a very good mentality in the club, the us against the world feeling that they players and fans thrive on.
Criticisms, earlier in the season their second half performances didn't match the first, but they seem to have sortes that out right now.
Of course, their good run is coinciding with us dropping points, but they've caught up 10 points in less than a month so if that carries on for a few more weeks there'll be some gap.
