I think size has become a lazy substitute (much like Etuhu) for athleticism...
I would much rather a Norwich team that lost 1-0 every week trying to play football than some of the dross that is being put out now but players have to have a level of athletecism and that level is being raised all the time, its just a shame that Worthington has become so blinkered on it that he has missed other fundamentals need in a player.
Its a shame Oirish Phil wasn't a motivated athlete he would have been a decent player
