A bit nonchalant ? Hope he's not inconsistent in his performances for us! We have plenty of them already : D

Amazing stuff. I see he signed for Norwich in 2019. Might have moved over a little before. I saw him with Ireland under 17s against a Belgium side that included Jeremy Doku in 2019 and he was awesome. I suppose you could say that some players can just move up the levels easily and adapt. Amazing how he has excelled to such a level whereby he's a centre half spinning by Serbs and resisting their pressing with such ease. Such an awesome prospect we have.
Listened to a podcast earlier, think it was recorded in May. Very down to earth and humble, his main concern was impressing enough to keep in the under 21 squads, never mind the senior squad. Seems very aware of the need to keep challenging himself and not take the praise or the criticism too seriously. Not sure if this will work but it was IFFTV podcast. https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR...AAAAHQAAAAAQAQ

Playing right of a back three tonight against Liverpool. Divock Origi just had the freest head ever between Gibson and Hanley for a goal. They might be trying a back five tonight to tighten up their leaky defence but the gap can't be plugged with both of that pair in there.
Nice bit with him and idah on football focus this morning
I like how bored and nonchalant they both sound : D it's just like get on with it. Don't make a bit deal about anything.
I'm not referring to the subject matter just the attitude

Norwich beaten 7-0. Came on after 70 minutes when they were down to 10 men and already 5 down. Maybe Norwich need to think about reshaping their defence and their attack for that matter.
Norwich are terrible and a dead certainty to go down this season. It just doesn't make sense given how successful they were last year in the Championship. What went wrong?
They're a yo yo club. Back to back championship wins followed by back to back relegations. And they'll probably win the championship again or at least get promoted again next season. They're happy to get the TV money and parachute payments without having to invest heavily in the squad and selling the odd player for a profit. Only way I can't see them getting promoted again is if Pukki struggles to score and they can't replace his goals.
First PL goal. I do reckon this lad will be in the Premiership (or equivalent) for most of his career.
As an aside, in the Norwich Liverpool match that Idah wasn't great in there was a Tzolis guy that was utterly muck. I find it funny that he's the guy they are introducing on 70mins here. I know he's a wider player but I do feel that the few bob paid is a factor here.
Another good game today. Farke just sacked, must be a blow to Idah and Andy. Let’s see what happens with new manager…but if it’s survival at all costs attitude, I fear for game time for their youngsters. Having said that, idah would have needed a loan in Jan anyways, was getting minimal game time thus far
Sacked after winning, I wonder has the replacement been arranged already
Also Andy has nothing to worry about even mourinho wouldn't drop him
Returns to bench today, as Dean Smith not surprisingly errs on the side of experience. Idah also on the bench. Let’s see how the next few games go. Idah for sure needs to push for a loan January if still getting no meaningful game time
