Well it's already solved our issues here:

Norwich City conceding too many goals has been a recurring issue across multiple seasons, often undermining their attacking strengths. To address this, they should take a multi-layered approach focusing on tactics, personnel, and mentality:

1. Strengthen the Defensive Spine
Sign a commanding centre-back: Norwich has often lacked a physically dominant, vocal leader in defense. A player with organizational skills and aerial strength could help marshal the back line.
Defensive midfielder priority: A proper ball-winning holding midfielder can shield the defense and break up attacks before they reach dangerous areas.
2. Tactical Adjustments
Defensive shape and compactness: Norwich often leave too much space between lines. They need to stay compact, particularly in transition, and avoid being stretched.
Full-back discipline: Their full-backs often bomb forward, exposing the flanks. A more cautious, situational approach could help maintain balance.
3. Set-Piece Organization
Norwich concede a lot from set-pieces. This could be addressed through:
Better marking assignments (considering a mix of man and zonal)
More aggressive attacking of the ball
Using taller, more physical players when defending corners and free-kicks
4. Defensive Coaching
Investing in a specialist defensive coach could make a tangible difference—someone who drills fundamentals, positioning, and anticipation daily.
5. Mentality and Game Management
Norwich often struggles to close out games. Training players to manage leads—slowing tempo, smart fouls, and better decision-making—is essential.
