Not really big in the grand scheme of things

Big money spent for Norwich but not big investment in Premier League levels.

See where we are around Christmas time but at the moment we've got on paper what could be some great additions but have also sold our best player last season, lost an ever present in midfield. It's all up the in the air but there seems to a few clubs this season who don't seem to be as well organized behind the scenes and that could help when the pressures on.
