I think Norwich were there for the taking in the second half . It was very cagey as you'd expect but we really have lost our spark and cutting edge and confidence.

Yep yep.

Agree re the spark, but, it was an improvement on recent performances, and we looked much more solid, particularly against one of the best set piece sides in the division. Would’ve been happier had we nicked a goal, as the pressure will be huge at home, but we are still very much in with a shout. Kamara MOTM for me today in a much stronger performance from him, more reminiscent of his earlier season form.

Given the way we have been playing, the outcome was ok; on the whole we did the job Farke obviously played for. Our biggest problem is the form / state of Rutter and Summerville. It was like we were playing with 9 men for most of the game. Both were feeling sorry for themselves. There was a slight improvement when James and Anthony came on.
Norwich gave it a go for about 10 minutes and then very poor.
Like most, would have taken it at the start, but somewhat frustrated we didn’t take the opportunity. Not sure what can be done about Summerville; it’s not as if Farke would be given any credence/ credit for dropping him.
I would start James next week.

I’d say it was a decent result
And certainly
I felt we looked quite comfortable (apart from a few moments from Meslier )
I think we can get it final.

I think Jimmy has left the building, but likely to show up if we get to Wembley for a showroom performance.

Indeed Dougie.

Agree about Kamara, Bright.
Just watched the "highlights" to refresh my memory, but Cry did have a de ent rubbish in goal and create 2 chances, whilst Rutter had a role in that disallowed goal (albeit he was flagged for offside) and found himself in a good position to score, which he fluffed.
Considering the minimal chances created due to our more reserved tactics, I don't thibk that the end of the world. I'd assume more attacking freedom will be granted for Thursday which hopefully coincides with an upturn in both their ability to impact the tram going forward.
But granted, nothing is a given so wpuld not be suprised to see some rotation, although I'd personally be reluctant as they are both capable of producing something out of nothing when on form.

I tend to agree with all of that Dill.
Quite simply though, If we don’t get a result on Thurs, no matter what Farke does, he will be targeted by a selection of fans and labelled a failure. He is pretty much in a no win situation, unless we absolutely thrash them.
