Good analysis...

My observations...

Svenny, for the money paid a definate success his goals to game ratio was much better than people gave him credit for, a far better finisher than Leon - Worthy didn't cover himself in glory by not giving Svenny a new contract (he wanted to stay) but instead chose to employ Uncle Peter - no comparison.

Some of the players in your unsuccessful column are there only because they were mismanaged, they failed because Worthy didn't get, or wasn't able to get the best out of them. E.G. Mattius Jonson - apparently good enough to play up front for Sweden but struggled to perform well for Norwich - maybe something to do with being played out of position on the right of midfield. Would maybe have been interesting to see him play up front from time to time.

Also, the likes of Helveg, Jonson etc - didn't play anywhere near enough games for Norwich in the Prem season, Worthy continuing to perservere with Edworthy, Holt etc. when it was plain for all to see.
