1st and 2nd from last seasons Championship now officially relegated.

3rd highly likely to be on the way soon.

Wasn't mentioned in press conference but Conor Roberts is back.

HC? I kid. :roflmao: But honestly, I’d prefer him as a consultant to get the balance right in Farke’s system, akin to what we were discussing in Marsch thread. He’s been an understudy/student of Ragnick, Rose, and Tuchel (as well as Marsch). Would be a welcome influence. Not sure if he could help i...

1789191076974043609 Come home Raph, we luv ya :love: Come full circle for him, Barcelona fans didn't rate him at all now look at those replies. 9 goals and 12 assists in all competitions in just 19 matches worth of minutes is exceptional Forget KP, he's the one recent player I'd love to have back.

Tbf they look like they were around when it was made, maybe just wanted to reminisce?

But seriously pish off.

800 year old priceless artifact, leave it alone you bunch of weirdos.

Man City u18s play better football to watch than our 1st team

The City players look bigger and stronger than ours anyhow.

And as its Man City they've probably poached all these and sportswash the u18s as well.

Agreed with you right up to the last statement. When has Paddy ever received universal praise? He's been a whipping boy for a significant minority of the fans since he first arrived. We're going to miss him this week. He's had a strange relationship with the fans, it's got really nasty in the past ...

Not sure what or why we want to bring him back for?

But Bayern fans absolutely love him judging by the comments on these

He may have played well personally but it's a team game and he sits way to deep for a striker and doesn't have the pace to recover. He needs a striker ahead of him. Personally I think he did well overall, held the ball up, scored a goal, even making goal saving tackles in our own box. Set up 3 chan...

No

Loan contracts officially end after the season ends to stop this I believe (regardless of whether the player has physically returned to the permanent club)

No he'll play Piroe .

We know he will.

And tbf to Piroe he was our best player vs Southampton (slim pickings admittedly)

Methinks there was another injury which showed up on a scan or tests they ran and they then missed the current problem. Not for the first time we have lost players due to this. Forshaw and Roberts come to mind Rob Price had a patchy record before he arrived. Maybe he is the issue? Seems a recurring...

Shane Duffy will possibly be available

Christian Fassnacht is back in training as is Jonathan Rowe.

Thats 22 goals or assists back for Norwich.

But Ashley Barnes and Onel Hernandez are out.

Crocked

Out of both semi final legs.

Paddy has taken his usual place in the Adam Forshaw suit.

James it touch and go.

Basically a reset now.

Oh and

"This game will not be won or lost by great decisions on the touchline"

Farke's here - team news? Daniel James is making good progress. He's coming closer and closer. Joined in with parts of team training. Tight rce, but has a chance. Depends on the next 48 hours. Could be he is an option. Not ready for 90, but an option to travel. Patrick will definitely miss both leg...

If we perform how we've performed basically since February we won't get through the playoffs. For me aside from the results it's big for Farke and the players to put in a proper performance. Even through the running run it was less than convincing. Hull Leicester Stoke Plymouth Results didn't tell t...

Olympiakos have completely owned Villa in these two legs.

6-2 on aggregate

2-0 on the night.

Not even the current Greek Champions, Aek Athens are under former managerial target Matias Almeyda.

Fair play Olympiakos.

Absolutely convinced they will come out smelling of roses and end up like Villa with really ambitious and generous owners . . . .

Oxford United beat Peterborough United 2-1 on aggregate in their League One play-off semi-final to set up a meeting with Bolton at Wembley. Trailing 1-0 from the first leg, it was Posh who netted first in the return fixture at the Weston Homes Stadium, Josh Knight smartly placing the ball into the ...
