As I said in my previous article, something is not right at Norwich. To be honest, it doesn’t seem like there is enough fight and hunger in the team when things start to go bad. This is unlike the Paul Lambert era when we had a series of players who were bought in from the lower leagues. Obvious examples including Grant Holt (bought from Shrewsbury Town), Simeon Jackson (from Gillingham) and Michael Nelson (Hartlepool United). These teams had passion, hunger and kept on going to the final whistle (as shown by the incredible finale to the famous 3-2 win vs Derby County). Maybe this is what Norwich need now, a core of talented individuals from the lower league blended with youth and a sprinkle of stardust from a couple of players. This could make for a mix which could replicate the success of the Paul Lambert era. Here are a few examples of players from League 1 and League 2 who could fit the bill.
