Has the temerity to shoot from outside the box

What a refreshing change.

Let's hope we've seen the last of Perkins taking his 3 yards sideways passes from free kicks in dangerous positions.

What you judging this on, mate?
Because he did nowt of that nature when I saw him last season.
Reuben is a beast of a set piece merchant. Likes a shot, too. As does Mellis.
Flitcroft has entered the end game, two months earlier than Keith did.
Panic panic panic.
Just my interpretation, hope I am wrong and it's all part of the 'plan'.

 

Re: Looks like we've signed a central midfielder who can deliver a decent set piece a

Im basing it on the fact that flitcrofts three "favoured" central midfielders etuhu, Perkins and Dawson couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo and turn into dithering idiots in the last third. I know there are other lads in the squad who can do those things but they are never in favour for long enough. One of the favoured three is now going to have to make way for this new signing, unless he's going to play him at right back or summat (which wouldn't surprise me)

Ignore me, pal.
Bed time. Just becoming more and more bemused by Flicker's adventure.

Whitey, if you speak to Norwich fans Fox is well known for his set piece delivery. If you look at his video on youtube there are various clips on his ability to take a decent freekick and corner.

This is a really good signing for the club I cant see why people are being so negative. Yes we have too many players, but if we are to improve we need a better quality of player than Dawson and Perkins in midfield. Fox gives us that.

Problem is it'll not be Dawson and Perkins who make way - it'll be Mellis and RNL imho, the fall guys.

His treatment of Mellis v Watford was abysmal. If he's wanting to force him out then he's going the right way.

You are probably right, but I'm hoping you are not

 

Re: Looks like we've signed a central midfielder who can deliver a decent set piece a

I dont think Flicker is daft enough to make that mistake again. I think he wanted to give them a chance (and he gave them too long) but from the interviews I've heard he seems to have accepted that some of the squad are not good enough (presumably Dawson, Perkins and Dagnall).

 

Re: Looks like we've signed a central midfielder who can deliver a decent set piece a

Well hopefully that's the case - and I wouldn't write all 3 off, just wouldn't play them together.

Still think Mellis will bear the brunt as well.

 

Re: Looks like we've signed a central midfielder who can deliver a decent set piece a

That is only your presumption though. Let's wait and see who is dropped. Dawson has been made captain remember.

 

Re: Looks like we've signed a central midfielder who can deliver a decent set piece a

Im fully in support of Flicker. But if he puts Dawson, Perkins, Kennedy, Dagnall and O'brien in the same team again this season he is asking to lose his job.
