Tzolis is what, 19? Come from a different league, as have the others.

It’s unrealistic to expect him to be setting things on fire, really. He’ll need time.

The thing I don’t get is the high esteem reserved for Normann. He’s not a creative passer, or even that good at the simple passes. Tettey used to get all kinds of flack (most ridiculous player ever, anybody?) for the things Normann does. He’s ok, but he’s not the saviour.

For what it’s worth, I thought we did ok yesterday but obviously should have taken those chances. Confidence. Or rather, self doubt.

Has to be a review of our scouting and recruitment (NCFC) - Chopper, Dec 6, 09:32:08
- A lot of missing my point. Suspect some may go on to (NCFC) - Chopper, Dec 6, 22:09:49
- Tzolis is 19 and has played ONE full season in Greece. Highly rated and highly sort after (NCFC) - Pixelman, Dec 6, 12:04:27
  - He's looked dangerous and should probably get a bit more game time (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 12:05:50
- after just 15 games? You think that is time enough? (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Dec 6, 12:00:15
  - this is the problem we don;t have the luxury of time in the prem (NCFC) - pinkney, Dec 6, 12:11:29
    - But we do have the luxury (NCFC) - Henclrikus, Dec 6, 12:17:25
      - trouble is when we go down we lose more of the team and then start again (NCFC) - pinkney, Dec 6, 12:59:15
- Tzolis is what, 19? Come from a different league, as have the others. (NCFC) - APB, Dec 6, 10:48:23
  - Normann's passing stats are off the scale bad (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 10:56:29
    - Like I said, ok but not the saviour (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Dec 6, 11:01:11
      - I don’t think we have any one player that’s good enough to be viewed as the saviour (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 6, 11:23:49
  - I'd say Normann is the most complete midfielder we have by a considerable way (n/m) (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, Dec 6, 10:52:02
    - We’ll be differing on that then (n/m) (NCFC) - APB, Dec 6, 10:52:51
      - Normann is a bit hit and miss….. (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 6, 11:22:25
      - Know what you mean about Normann, but I thought we missed him yesterday (NCFC) - jampersands, Dec 6, 10:58:46
- Rashica is good I think, Tzolis will also come good but (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 6, 09:59:50
  - It’s a reflection of our lack of cash and also the fact we cannot sign (NCFC) - pinkney, Dec 6, 10:11:59
  - Bit unfair saying Sargent can’t play football. Awful in the 6 yard box but good physical (NCFC) - Biggles, Dec 6, 10:09:31
    - But he makes the previous VWW signing look like good business (n/m) (NCFC) - Munich93, Dec 6, 11:21:13
    - He isn't physical though as a striker, with his back to goal (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, Dec 6, 10:53:39
- It's funding, not the system (n/m) (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, Dec 6, 09:46:50
  - Yes, signings at any price point are hit and miss (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 6, 10:01:15
    - We didn’t need to buy two left wingers for a start, especially as Cantwell plays there (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 6, 10:24:58
      - Cantwell doesn't fit into either of the systems we've been mostly playing tbh (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 10:32:51
      - I hear what you’re saying (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 6, 10:30:00
      - I think we expected to sell Todd (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 6, 10:28:42
    - It's about the scouting though, not the price (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 10:07:37
      - I realise I've contradicted myself here (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 10:14:52
        
        Remember Emi was seen as a gamble (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, Dec 6, 10:37:24
        
        Seen as a gamble by other clubs I should add (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, Dec 6, 10:41:39
        
        Of course you can, and we have (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Dec 6, 10:28:28
  - Yep. Even if we could "afford" a £20m striker (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 09:48:29
    - embrace the yoyo (n/m) (NCFC) - Tombs, Dec 6, 09:59:32
- Tbf onel not even making an impact in champ anymore (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Dec 6, 09:45:11
- I’d add Lees-Melou to that list. And agree we don’t have the players. (NCFC) - DH Yellow, Dec 6, 09:42:18
  - PLM was just cheap squad cover, no? (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 6, 10:25:25
    - ? He’s been playing though. (n/m) (NCFC) - DH Yellow, Dec 6, 10:47:09
      - Well, quite (NCFC) - CWC, Dec 6, 11:13:29
  - I don't know if Hugil would cut the grade at prem level (NCFC) - Steven_P_Morrissey, Dec 6, 09:50:08
    - Hugill is an embarrassment at champ level. Just runs around fouling people (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Dec 6, 10:28:10
    - Neither do I. But he’s better than Idah, so get him back (n/m) (NCFC) - DH Yellow, Dec 6, 09:51:29
      - He's awful (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 09:53:24
        
        If you watch his goals from QPR 2 seasons ago its absolutely baffling what he's become (NCFC) - trafford_canary, Dec 6, 10:28:50
        
        Agree (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Dec 6, 10:33:05
