Just copied the below from online, how fickle can you get! From hero to zero in 45 mins! They're playing the European Champions for goodness sake! https://www.facebook.com/groups/norwichcityfcfanclub/ Copied from the above link: "I'm going to say it, because I don't think anyone else will.. but Farke simply is not a Premier League standard manager. If we are to rise up to the next level, we need to sack him very soon and replace him with someone who is actually proven in this league. This first half performance is only a taste of what's to come if we don't act soon enough. He has taken us as far as he possibly can. Thanks for the memories Daniel, but it's time for a change."
The "not a Premier League manager" may well be correct. But they also do not have a Premier League team. Their transfer policy has been take the money and prepare for the Championship next season.
I suspect Farke and Norwich will part ways at some point this season - they were rumoured to be on the verge of it when they drew with us last season.

they've actually played well
I thought overall they did too. They showed character not to completely roll over when 4 down at half time. Shouldn't forget their defence was pretty leaky in the Championship so that could be their Achilles heel. Not sure why they didn't start Hernández as he usually looks lively when I've seen them play.

Well Liverpool tantalised us first half with a possible 8 or 9 nil demolition on the cards but not to be. On a random note, how's this for a stat, our 9 nil defeat to Man Utd was sandwiched between two wins by Ipswich against Utd as we had beaten them 3-2 at home earlier that same season and when we met them next following our 9 nil stuffing (in 97 in the League Cup) we beat them 2 nil at home with a lovely little chip goal from Mauricio Taricco stealing the show (I'm sure plenty of you will remember that beauty only too well)! We've beaten Manchester Utd 19 times in our history which isn't a bad effort! And of course there was the 6 nil win to us against them that could of been 8 or 9 nil if we hadn't of been so wasteful with all the missed pens that game. Can't have been many teams that have stuffed Man Utd 6 nil before!

3 missed penalties, but 2 of them were the same penalty which was retaken - i.e. missed twice

they did. however when I see a team play some decent stuff I wont just lie and say they were sht because they are our rivals. lost 4-1 but played some decent stuff. we won games 1-0 under MM and I thought we were terrible. funny old game isn't it
