Norwood is an enigma at the moment.
First half against Fulham he ran the game and was superb.....2nd half he hardly touched to ball and became invisible.
First 15 minutes against Chelsea Norwood was impressive....he controls our possession...but once we have a spell without possesion then Norwood becomes anonymous like he’s not even on the pitch.

Excellent player...He helps makes us tick and he needs to be in the ball more.
The issue with Norwood is that he’s physically lightweight so unless he see’s plenty of the ball he doesn’t offer enough to the team.

Subbed for his own good last night. Lost count of the number of times Mount/Ziyech/Kovacic played 1-2’s around him. His mobility is diminishing rapidly and it wasn’t great to begin with and teams know that. Like you I really like him and when he’s protected or when we’re on the front foot he’s great to have. I’d like to find a place for him but he’s a passenger without the ball. Maybe having Ampadu next to him can help.
