Completely agree. Wrights miss turned the game from us cruising 2.0 to giving them the kick up the back side. How we have only taken 1 point from this Norwich side just baffles me. There isnt one Norwich player id swap for any of ours, we are technically superior in every department. We just need two scorers up front.I thought we played very well.
Imagine Vik instead of Simms... We'd have won that. If Wright scores by placing the ball into the corner when clean through it could have been very different.
If I were Robins I think I'd be planning to get two new strikers in summer and try to sell Wright and Simms. They may both go on to do very well but it's not working here. Their only merit is being better than a 31 year old Godden.
Kitching hasn’t been great since returning from suspension to be fair.I thought Wright was OK. Always involved. Simms wasn’t great but he was starved of service for the most part.
Thomas was all over the place 1st half and Kitching wasn’t great either.
Wright has never been ‘awesome for us’.Wright is just back from injury, first start I believe. Once he gets back into the rhythm he'll be awesome for us again. Will hold down the left-sided forward player spot.
They also completed nullified Sakamoto, just starved him of service, and he and Milan rarely managed to link up, not to the extent they have been recently.I thought Wright was OK. Always involved. Simms wasn’t great but he was starved of service for the most part.

As for Simms, if the ref had actually played the advantage correctly he’d have been in first half.

Yep. Given no protection but also stopped us getting the ball to him.They nullified him by kicking the shit out of him
They did, but that should have given more space to O’Hare, Wright, Simms and Torp.Yep. Given no protection but also stopped us getting the ball to him.

I thought he got something of the ball first, but the striker was playing for it. I don't know what depresses me more, the thought of being without him for the next three games or what we would be like when O'Hare goes. Everything good in our play started from him with his interaction and movement. Simms just doesn't suit our style of play, and even gets in the way sometimes when we're playing one touch around their box. There's probably a good player in there somewhere but not at this level. Their winner was a wonder strike and the only highlight of the game for them as everything else yellow is just flat. Ive honestly never heard or not heard such a quiet stadium. I was unfortunately in block H with the home supporters who spent most of the time moaning about our singing when the only time they perked up was when they scored against the run of play. I had this absolute little tosser sitting next to me who spent the whole first half giving the anker sign across to our lot, saying to his mate how he was going to give it to us afterwards. i had to move seats when I could for fear of giving myself away, not that there was anyone there with one ball big enough to actually do anything.... my God im mad.I thought Kitching played well. As for the incident, he had to make a tackle and he got suckered by the striker moving too fast. Wasn't a deliberate foul.
Thought he was fantastic considering it’s his second start for us. Not dissimilar to Sheaf, but a little more offensive.wasnt there, couldnt listen, but Torp seemed to get the praises, was he that good? who does he play like?
wasnt there, couldnt listen, but Torp seemed to get the praises, was he that good? who does he play like?
To get an idea what he plays like presumably. If they haven’t seen him play I don’t think that’s unreasonable.Just let him play how he plays. Why do you need comparisons to judge him?
Nobody knows yet what he plays like. But some of our fans are still looking for a clone of Gyokeres and Hamer.To get an idea what he plays like presumably. If they haven’t seen him play I don’t think that’s unreasonable.
Reminds me a bit of will smallbonewasnt there, couldnt listen, but Torp seemed to get the praises, was he that good? who does he play like?
hey, im just asking for information, im just excited we have a player thats played well!Just let him play how he plays. Why do you need comparisons to judge him?
Agreed, but apparently some on here think ge should start ahead of Godden.Simms 2
Fucking dreadful, the ball never ever sticks. Like a game of fucking pinball when it’s in to his feet

I got slaughtered on here for saying Simms is a bag of wank and Wright isn't good enough. But for me this game absolutely sums it up perfectly.Simms 2

Wright is fine, Simms has obviously got some way to go. It is still too early to write either off.I got slaughtered on here for saying Simms is a bag of wank and Wright isn't good enough. But for me this game absolutely sums it up perfectly.
Tbf, Wright has looked decent since being moved out to the left wing, but he's not good enough for a CF.Wright is fine, Simms has obviously got some way to go. It is still too early to write either off.

Think we'll have an exciting summer again. Less players but I suspect high quality ones.I just want a forward who looks like he’s in control of the ball and can compete physically with centre backs. It’s not that much to ask.
It's becoming that bad that the poster who said Palmer might be worth a go up front is looking less crazy with every passing game.I just want a forward who looks like he’s in control of the ball and can compete physically with centre backs. It’s not that much to ask.

Should have brought Lati and Eccles at 1-0 up to shore up the midfield and slow the game down. Might have won us the game had we managed it better. Was very naive of us to let them back in it.
Bin off Simms, Allen, Godden, Kelly, Moore, JDS this summer and get reinforcements instead. Heard Luton want to sign Sheaf for 8M who’s missed a fair chunk of games through injury. If we can get 8-10M for Sheaf it might be worth exploring. It might allow us to offer a max deal for COH if he’s willing to re-sign. Otherwise that’s another hole to fill.
