REACTION | Norwich City 0-2 Bristol City | Johannes Hoff Thorup

[@Scott-kd5sm]

Looking forward to the international break and hoping there is a On The Ball Episode 4… really interesting to see how behind the scenes have been during this period

[@hydro9634]

We have so much of the ball but we don't create enough that's been the reality in the last few weeks

[@ThomasNeaves-m9o]

STOP PUTTING LONG IN GOAL AND EVERY CHANCE THE OTHER TEAMS HAVE AT THE MOMENT WONT BE GOING IN ARCHIE MAIR IS A BETTER GK THAN LONG AND HE HAS BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR A OPPORTUNITY

[@garybayfield6864]

JHT, It’s also about changing the positions and formation to suit what you have at your disposal…I don’t see too much of that ?…..OTBC

[@charliecook184]

You said it yourself all they need to do is shoot on target and they will score long is not good enough errors every game he plays! There will be some youth players annoyed after watching that I.e archie mair and a striker, you play mercondes upfront really?!?!?! Crnac is so far off the level it's unreal! Fact.... Long made 0 saves against Bristol and conceded 2!

[@seanmcgonigle7610]

Bristol City actually

[@trainspotter66]

🔰The fortress is no more 😔🔰

[@pianoman5586]

Cheers Sherlock 👍

[@starrstreams]

It was our first choice back 4 today. Looked awful defending again. Played Doyle at left back again. He’s not a left sided player.

[@seanmcgonigle7610]

thanks for the points 🔴

[@ThomasNeaves-m9o]

Play Brad hills with Jose cordoba and Archie mair for long

[@Rollingthunder987]

The injuries are mostly players Hof inherited, what we are seeing is Hofs 23 million euros of signings on display. We spent more on Crnac than Bristol spent all summer in total. I wonder why no one is questioning those decisions?

[@mattbrown7638]

Because they need to be given time. A lot to adjust to and many enforced changes in the starting XI. This was always going to be a season of transition. When we were on a winning run some assumed we'd walk it into the top 6, then we lose a few and it's all doom and gloom.

[@hughtube5154]

​@@mattbrown7638we also need to find the best formation and best positions for the players.

[@johnb6723]

One other thing that was evident was the fact that Bristol City had two shots on target and scored twice, meaning the goalkeeper did not make a single save. It wouldn't have been any worse if I had been in goal. Or the pope. Or Keir Starmer. Or Joe Biden. Or Kamala Harris. Or Vladimir Putin. Basically, the result was not acceptable. The goalkeeper doesn't deserve to be paid. Period.

[@Josht-tl8rt]

second goal is a beaut, stop being sour 😂

[@AndrewHogarth-o8b]

We need to invest in a top gk as soon as possible

[@MikeHunt-m7x]

Sort that defence Throwup u Cant!

[@marki61422]

He's useless got no idea, get Mark Robins in as manager.

[@billydolton7252]

up nxt for NCFC is away at WBA in 2 weeks time OTBC!

[@MikeHunt-m7x]

Off the Ball right now.

[@Andrewjg_89]

Guarantee another loss and the pressure mounting on JHT.

[@edw4543]

Our performances have been as good as that microphone looks, SHABBY.

[@michaelhowes3575]

Only 30 comments ⁉️. How many Norwich fans were at the match ⁉️. What's going wrong ⁉️ Forget about any consideration of promotion this season, with results , from the previous three games OK.....

[@Benjamin00720]

Christmas is coming JHT......🎄⏳️👋

[@ManWalksDogs]

those shiny new blue seats in that stand in your banner pic wouldnt happen to be your new season ticket spot in the rebuilt portman road by any chance...?

[@NigelCraske]

Always 💩on the old blue n white ,c where U r at Xmas 🚜🔚🔜🍾💛💚1️⃣5️⃣😘🇬🇫1️⃣🔹0️⃣ Nunez 🎉

[@juliantooke8647]

I said this would happen 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@ManWalksDogs]

mmm knew as soon as we got the year undefeated record & said myself at the time that our next home game was bound to be an L and that was without taking the bare bones squad into consideration. oh well...

[@KevinFeeney-o6f]

Jht you are out of your depth just leave now

[@Tipps72]

This isn’t me here to poke fun or boast because we beat you but Liam Manning has been in charge at Bristol City for literally a couple of days over a year & we are just starting to see some real progression & performances consistently, the things managers/head coaches want to implement don’t happen at a click of the fingers, we both have a lot of players out injured & that also affects things especially when we don’t have tens of millions to spend. This is your first home defeat for over a year, if you change manager/head coach now then his replacement will want to play a certain way & will want his own players in to suit that style, again, that won’t happen overnight.

[@ManWalksDogs]

@@Tipps72 thanks for that, a sensible head on you there. there's every chance kevin feeney is one of many ipswich trolls* that have come out of the woodwork since they went up, so take their 'chucking the baby out with the bathwater' messaging with a pinch of salt. i'm looking forward to a maddison hattrick tomorrow at spurs...giving the away end the shush finger like he did at portman road for us! *yep, confirmed: his account was created today and of course has nothing else on it.

[@Andrewjg_89]

Indeed. He’s nothing but a useless head coach who has no experience at all. BRING IN MARK ROBINS PLEASE!!
