Macca's off for sure which makes me think they have someone line up or Timlin will come back on the left

I'll be a little dissapointed if Macca goes and we don't sign a replacement by 5pm.

macca is rubbish - too lightweight, floats in n out of the game, and has only one decent skill - crossing, which hasnt been great recently. if we are serious about the playoffs we need a better winger. norwich must be mad !

There could be any number of reasons why he didn't turn up for training, but if he is leaving I can't imagine for one second that Wilson would let him go without already having agreed a deal for a replacement.

I haven't seen enough of O'Brien to form an opinion, and Marshall looked awfully raw at times.
O'Brien is incredibly fast and if he could cross a football would probably be a premiership player - but his crossing is poor. From speaking to some Newcastle supporting friends when we acquired him they said that was why he didn't suceed there and from his few performances to date it doesnt seem to have improved greatly in the intervening years. Hope I am wrong though! |

Alan Sheehan to replace? or O'Brien back to match fitness. No loss really.

Are Norwich paying us money for him?
Its well know I dont rate McNamee as much as most do on here. Whoever said the crowd get on his back was talking rubbish. Tuesday night was the first time I heard McNamee get any sort of abuser thrown his way despite having played many games as poor as that.
He can do step overs and 1 in 10 he can put in a decent cross. He doesnt track and offers nothing defensivly.
Also, teams doubling up on him?! surely thats what any decent defensive team unit does? the wingers track back to help the full back. Its not some tactic specific to McNamee
My only worry is, we seem short on wingers as it is. With McNamee off that would leave JPM, Marshall (out on loan?) Macklin (injured) O'Brien (always injured) and Henshall (still at school)
I see we've bought Sheehan in but never heard of him being played on the left wing.

I don't think Sheehan will play LM tbh. Marshall is back apparently and you forgot Matty Barnes. |

Marshall is back mate, O'Brien hopefully is regaining fitness, Macklin returns to training, so I at a guess would say Sheehan to play on the wing. Macca leaving was probably based on the Sheehan deal going through. |

Amankwaah on the wing? didn't he play there last year? And have Sheehan, Greer, Cuthbert, Jean-Francois at the back? |

No, because a) he's not a left sided player and b) we don't have another RB.

True but Wilson has had a reputation for playing players out of position. |
