Dave Posted June 25, 2023 Author Share Posted June 25, 2023 20 hours ago, Danny said: Have Norwich got much young talent in their team? Because those transfers don't scream "let's have another crack at staying up in the Prem if we get up", they scream "here comes the yoyo". It sounds like they don't have the quality or depth coming through that they had 5 years ago with Aarons, Godfrey, Murphy twins etc. Liam Gibbs seems to have had a good season but not seen enough of him, Andrew Omobamidele has been linked with some big clubs previously but Norwich fans didn't sound impressed with him last season, Bali Mumba (who they got from Sunderland) had a very good loan spell at Peterborough but they've just signed Jack Stacey in his position, and Adam Idah has shown gimplises of being a good forward but also seems to be injury prone.

Subscriber Pyfish+ Posted June 30, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted June 30, 2023 Danilo Orsi left us for Crawley. Happy it's on a fee but disappointed he didn't get more minutes for us last season as whenever he came on or played, he was a major threat up top for us.

Bluebird Hewitt Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Our first signing of the season. Ike Ugbo on a season long loan from Troyes. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66102961 Not sure how good a signing this'll be, but considering how shite our striking options were, it can't be any worse............right?

Bluebird Hewitt Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Our second signing of the season. Dimitrious Goutas signs a two year deal on a free transfer. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66108253 Not sure what he's like other than he's lanky, so may actually score some goals from corners now.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted July 5, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted July 5, 2023 1 hour ago, The Palace Fan said: What a disappointment he was. He'd looked excellent every time I'd seen him before. You did have to wonder why he was still in Croatia at that age though. In other news - lots of our ITKs are saying we're going to sign Callum Doyle. Lovely stuff. A bright prospect and even more importantly will annoy Coventry fans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted July 7, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted July 7, 2023 We're likely to confirm Callum Doyle and Zach Steffen signings this weekend apparently. Delighted with Doyle. That's exactly the kind of deal I want more of. Young, left sided centre half, just won Coventry player of the season (though my mate who supports them is baffled at how it couldn't be Gyokeres who he thinks is top drawer). Only shitter is we're capped in how much we can sell him for - but then if Man City want him back, that by default means the signing worked. Steffen I'm less convinced about. I'm generally of the belief that I'm taking a shot stopper over a distributor but I appreciate that's at odds with how Maresca will see it and he'll prefer a distributor. His shot stopping looks pretty ordinary at best. Just feel it's another stopgap type of signing if anything. I'm OK with it for a sensible fee but Middlesbrough fans I've come across weren't huge fans. It's not a disaster signing but just kind of think that the scouts may have had a bit more up their sleeve - particularly given he's out until September, meaning the dreaded Ward may get the nod.

Bluebird Hewitt Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Third signing for us. Yakou Meite joins us on a free transfer from Reading. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66124536 Heard he's done pretty decent, so hoping this will be a shrewd signing for us.

Slight delay but both still coming. Doyle's a done deal apparently. Steffen would be a loan rather than a permanent as well which I'm a bit happier about.
