Won 26
Drawn 5
Lost 19

Points per game 1.66.

Hit or miss? Daniel Farke or Bryan Gunn?

 

[Fenway Frank]

The fact that we've only drawn 5 says a lot about how we play, pretty good stats although he's not quite Daniel yet

I think it very much depends how the next few weeks go personally.

We need to beat the poor teams and we have last two games, but we need to be competitive with the rest and so far this season we haven’t been much.

Really like him as a person and leader, but this team, despite some very obvious structural issues, should still have done better so far this season and that’s got to be partly on him.

I hope we are back on to something now, but it’s more hope and faith than anything else.

I have to admit, I was definitely questioning him at half time yesterday...

 

[GJP]

I like him. To me he seems the first one since DF who looks like he could take this team somewhere (a good somewhere, just to clarify).

His PPG over the course of his time here is play-off type stuff. Get him a couple of reinforcements/upgrades and we could be in business.

Especially if we are keeping in touch with the top half of the league when the goal machine returns to fitness.

Can't moan at a 50% win rate. If we can keep that up and start snatching a few more draws from the jaws of defeat, we'll be on the right track.

 

[Sonyc]

I like him. He is sensible in what he has to say. No crap from him (management speak) just plain speaking. That's a plus. Seems to know what he wants and the results you've posted show that on the whole it is working. 1.66 in league terms would be about 76 points over a full season.

Seems to like being at Norwich too. Players seem to mainly show they are playing for him.

Not much to dislike. He's a long way to go to be an upgrade on Farke but he is the first who has come along who you think might just get close.

 

[Ricardo]

Considering where he came in, he has done ok.

He engineered a remarkable escape last season but can he take it further.

For me the jury is still out.

 

[Nuff Said]

For me, he’s inspires confidence, and it seems the players feel that too, if we can believe their public statements. He’s authoritative, knowledgeable and experienced (which many of his predecessors weren’t). While it’s not the easiest of hands he’s been dealt with two coaches in quick succession before him and a lot of young players, I do expect a decent showing (comfortably reaching the playoffs) this season. But - at the moment anyway - I’d not be in a hurry to get rid of him even if he’s doesn’t deliver. Any replacement would be a huge gamble. And I’d love to see what he made of the PL if he did manage to get us promoted.

We're the only team in the Championship who either wins or loses, no draws so far this season. That kinda sums us up!

I do like him as a man, and I can appreciate the style of play even if it's not my exact preference.

It does surprise me how we seem to wait until late in games to come alive though, when he first came in he had us super hungry and lively from the kickoff. The thing you'd expect from Clement is to drill that hunger and ethic into the players from the outset.

I don't think we could get much more perfect manager for a club needing to regroup, bring in some stability and structure. Especially being that we have a young SD who's still learning, the maturity and composure he shows is much needed. If it does fail, I think questions should be asked higher up.

I'd be most inclined to say he's a hit, but not at this point.

Pretty much how I feel. Last season did a great job getting us organised and rebuilding confidence when we were really struggling.

With little change in the squad over the summer I was hoping to see us improve the structure and be a little more fluid in possession this season. But we don't seem to have kicked on in the way I had hoped. Think the loss of Ali Ahmed hasn't helped in that regard because he gave great balance down the left but with more players being fit I expected a bit more.
