Norwich have sold their best player, some people are asking the ambition of Norwich but sometimes you have to sell to bring in players to give you a deeper squad. Would we have got promoted with Joe in the team, probably not, we gave it a damn good go with the 5 brought in. | | | |

100% agree with this. None of the 5 are near his quality, but without them, we’d have been left with a back 5 of Roberts, Rodon, Cabango, Guehi and Bidwell with Naughton covering them all. Appreciate we have the likes of Cameron Evans and Brandon Cooper in reserve, but to have them covering a very young back line as it was would have been a gamble. I think Rodon is a great player and in ideal circumstances, yes, we would have got more for him. The circumstances clearly weren’t ideal and I think the squad was stronger overall with the 5 we brought in. | | | |

Me too for a game. Not for a season. We were playing 352 at that point. I don’t know how good Cooper, Evans, Rusheda are, maybe they are ready to step up to a championship promotion push? I suspect we’d have had to rely on them last season without the Rodon sale. | | | |

You're swapping injury-prone Bennett (28 games) with Rodon and missing Manning's 11 starts at left back, it's barely any different from what we managed with. Latibeaudiere got 4 games and a few cameos off the bench. Am I missing another regular we brought into the defence after Rodon left? It's a shame Cooper and Benda picked up bad injuries when they did, unlike Cullen the timing didn't quite work out for them to get some cup games and impress. | | | |

If we’re talking injury prone, 28 games is more than Rodon managed for us in either of his two full seasons. Far better player than any of our centre backs, but you wouldn’t want to rely on him starting twice a week. Then you’ve probably got Cabango in the middle, Naughton as RCB and untried youngsters on the bench. In a compressed season. | | | |

| Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back. |
