That player is Ben Gibson. I was delighted when, in September 2020, it was revealed City were going to sign him on loan after he’d endured a tumultuous time at Burnley where, after impressing for Boro, he was the Clarets’ record signing. I also couldn’t have agreed more with the then-head coach, Daniel Farke’s statement: […]

After watching another poor City away performance at the weekend, on Canary Cast – the podcast I’m on with fellow MFW writer Joe Hinchliffe – we looked at the Wolves team and noted how they were better than Norwich in every department. As well as having better players, I was impressed by Wolves’ defensive solidity […]

I’m reluctant to say it, but Max Aarons will soon be shooting off to bigger and better. How well he has done in just shy of two seasons in the first team? 14th August 2018: the day the club’s academy staff had been waiting for, to see how one of their star talents would perform […]

Since he signed from Rennes in 2012, Norwich City have never been able to find a suitable like-for-like replacement for Alex Tettey and trust me they’ve tried. Louis Thompson, Gary O’Neil, Vadis Odidja-Ofoe, Connor McGrandles, Graham Dorrans, Youssouf Mulumbu, Harrison Reed and Ibrahim Amadou have all come in and auditioned as a potential upgrade on […]

Saturday 26th August 2017: Millwall 4 Norwich City 0. The worst game I’ve ever attended as a Norwich City fan (Note: I’m only 21). While Russell Martin was the scapegoat for the result, I was shocked to see 6ft 3in Marcel Franke being bullied by Lee Gregory and ex-City forward Steve Morison. The game and […]

Sam Byram: an injury-prone full-back signed for under a million pounds after underachieving at West Ham. This was an opinion shared by a few City fans when we signed the former Leeds youngster. Byram, a player who has played in both right-back and left-back admirably this season, has blown that perception out of the water […]

January tends to be a time when most of the talk is around signing players, so I thought I’d go for a different approach this week and take a look at the players who left City on loan at the start of the season and the progress (or lack of) at their respective loan clubs… […]

This season Todd Cantwell has turned himself into one of City’s most effective players and I wanted to give my take on how he has done this after mixed performances last season. Last season he played 27 games, scoring one goal and creating two assists. This season he has already beaten those stats with six […]

Now all of the Christmas festivities are over (I hope you all enjoyed yourselves) it’s time to look at January, not just for the New Year but more importantly the January transfer window. I personally am the believer that City are not too far away in terms of picking up points more regularly in this […]

Mario Vrancic has returned to the starting line-up against Sheffield United, so could he be the key missing link to help the Canaries pick up key points for the rest of the season? Vrancic joined City from SV Darmstadt in June 2017, after impressing in the Bundesliga. The Bosnian international struggled in his first season […]

When Norwich City signed Tim Krul on the 24th July 2018 the general consensus from the fans was positive – a Dutch international, most well known for being sent on as a substitute by Luis Van Gaal in the 2014 World Cup Quarter Final where he saved two penalties and helped the Dutch through to […]
