Dowell and Madine start. Duffy and McGoldrick on the bench.

Called it with Madine, bit surprised to see Dowell start for the first time in such a big game.

Dowell and Madine start. Duffy and McGoldrick on the bench.

Thought that would be the team this morning,its a more reactive counter attacking midfield with Dowell and Madine to hold the ball up,good thinking by Wilder.

Also, duffys tweet might not have gone down too well.

I would have thought that McG would be better in a counter attacking team than Sharp. Not sure about the changes, but we'll see I guess.

?? Link or details ?

We threw Wilson, Evans and Leonard in for their first starts in the game at Carrow Road last season, and to a degree all 3 worked for that specific occasion. Hopefully today’s changes have the same result.

Usually works. It's live via efl something according to football on satellite. Only via internet but that means it'll be shared .

Lots of popups but it WILL work. Currently 4 streams to choose from. It won't be perfect but better than nowt. Free

Historically, a game we would usually lose.

This team has the ability to win, but they've got to take their chances.

If Madine starts I will not be best pleased.

Someone is less than best pleased..

 

[wavy-blade]

Clarke injured then ??

Hasn’t that wlwats been the case?

Too late anyway.

 

[wavy-blade]

Billy and Madine up front together who would have put money on that at the beginning of the season, u couldn't make it up !
BFFL lol .

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Just caught a glimpse of the bus – very impressive.

Early signs are that the “take your time” song will be used at every opportunity...

 

[derfblade.3]

McGoldrick must be well pissed off. His coming back for the ball will be missed today and has been a big factor in us being where we are in the table. I'm not appeh. Nailed on defeat. Hope i'm totally wrong but it doesn't look right . Can see us reverting back to our normal starting 11 when it goes wrong. Ba humbug!

At first glance it might seem strange that 2 of our consistently better performers have been dropped for this game.

I think the logic behind Wilders thinking is.

1: Norwich’s big weakness in their team is aerial duals, according to stats they are one of the worse in the Championship.
Wilder obviously thinks anything in the air then Madine will have a field day against them and Sharp might benefit from the knock downs. You can bet we’ve been working on set pieces, corners and free kicks with Madine being the focal point.
However don’t forget that if they over concentrate on stopping Madine, then O’Connell and Egan can be a danger.

2: Suspect that Wilder thinks we were spend more time defending that usual, so will need to rely on the break more.
I think Dowell is more athletic, more direct and more liable to shoot, especially from distance than Duffy.
So he’s probably more suited for this match.

Normally the changes would be ok, however this is United. One six foot + player upfront known for his heading ability and it'll be hoof hoof hoof all day and completely abandon our normal successful game

Looks like another prem referee

 

[Topplayersleave]

Cap doffing to the top teams continues, no challenges, no competing, just letting them have the ball and standing watching

Agree, that’s a real issue.
If a midfielder has the easy option of hoof, then it must be so tempting to do it.

Yes. This.

These Farkers play forward passes very quickly in the last third.

 

[Steve.C]

How’s Fleck playing?

 

[Topplayersleave]

Get Duffy and McGoldrick on 2nd half so that we can retain possession a bit
