'During the 4 transfer windows that Knapper has overseen, Norwich have signed a total of 26 players for a sum of £51.9m. The biggest fee paid was the £8.5m outlay on attacker Ante Crnac, followed by the £6.9m signing of Mathias Kvistgaarden & the £5.8m deal to bring Matej Jurasek to Norfolk.'

"At Norwich, they believe they have enough talent to be able to make this work, Liam Manning is planning to be here for the long-term and from the noises we're hearing, that is not changing from anybody above him."

🟩🟨 Knapper and Webber fiddle as Norwich City FC burns.

🗣️ @garygowers.bsky.social

▪️ Typical second-half drop-off in quality
▪️ A squad bereft of both flair and balance
▪️ Losing has now become a habit

Think the reason #NCFC losing that 16-year streak feels so significant is that there’s now very little tying them to the glory years of 2009-2022. Kenny McLean the only player and everything off the pitch feels completely different. Even the badge has changed.

'The failure to meld old to new players, after a costly summer outlay, and the absence of any discernible playing style or strategy are firmly at his door.'

What a huge day it is for #NCFC and Liam Manning. The club’s first ever Norwich-born head coach goes into his first East Anglian derby knowing it has the potential to shape his time at the club in one way or the other. Here are his thoughts 👇

#NCFC have revealed big stadium plans. In the short-term they’ll move away fans to the River End and create a fan zone outside the Barclay, but it’s the start of a process they hope ends with City Stand expansion. A lot of focus on increasing matchday revenue too.
