Same story this week - benched and Norwich go 3-0 up after 20 minutes away from home.
(Back to 3-2 now)
If that's the way it's too be until May, I think he should probably start looking for a move. He's been too long getting 15 minutes here and there
Given how long he’s been out and the fact he’s “compromised” I wouldn’t be in too much of a rush for him to move on. Staying fit is the most important thing. I think he’ll get another run of starts in the next few weeks.
Early days with new manager and he has been getting lengthy sub appearances. Norwich are flying again with the new guy. Idah should stay certainly through the summer and see if he can force his way in
New deal to 2028

Well, if nothing else, he should be financially set for life even if the football career doesn't end up living up to the early hopes.
It's very hard to know what he is gettingQuote:

1.5 million over five years, I'll take that thanks very much!
don't forget it'll be taxed at the highest rate

A euro per word seems fair. Two Euros per word if the post gets more than 600,000 thumbs up in a 24 hour time period.
No....Quote:

It was a manager who was about to get the road who said that & probably knew his time was near, so who knows what politics were in the mix by that stage & he never said if it was the current situation or an ongoing one with Idah. This suggests Idah isn't the crock he was made out to be and that Norwich are fairly sure he'll turn out fine, which would be lovely. Didn't see this one coming at all, brilliant news.Quote:

He was good overall. His work rate was excellent, prob should have done better with a chance he had in 2nd half but he got the full 90 mins. The commentators on the stream I was watching were very impressed by him, especially his work rate and link up play.
I did think his movement still needs a lot of work, his instincts dont really dont seem to be brilliant but he is big, strong, fast and skillful.
Maybe with the confidence of getting a few starts he will kick on and get to where he seemed to be heading before he got injured last season.
Starts again with Pukki unavailable. Sargent hauled off at halftime, but it's still 0-0 away to relegation battlers Wigan
Another 85 minutes today, but not directly involved in either goal.
Pukki came on as a second half sub; I think he's had a knock the past couple of weeks (as has Sergeant) and it'll be interesting to see what happens next week.
Omobamidele came on as a late sub, as he did in midweek; not sure what's happened there that he's lost his place?
He was supposed to have been poor a couple of games ago, but wasn’t the worst. Seems to have been sacrificed rather than Hanley. His class should shine through though. Hanley and Gibson don’t have anywhere close to the talent Andy has. That injury took a lot out of him though
