After the Canaries finishing bottom of the Premier League last season, I wondered why they have done so well this season.
Just been reading an article where the Norwich City sporting director is being interviewed just after their away defeat at Swansea and a small blip of results.
This was three days before they went on that 9 game winning run.
it’s a long article but worth a read.
You previously mentioned this season was about taking actions and not dwelling on the past. People outside the club might have been surprised to see Norwich top of the league after relegation, and we’ve seen how other relegated clubs have done so far this season, so what does that say to you about Daniel, the coaching staff and the players who work here?
I’m not particularly surprised. I think we know with Daniel we’ve got a top, top manager who’ll go and be a head coach in the Champions League one day. I’ve always said that and nothing’s going to ever change my mind on that.
In terms of the players, we were quite smart with getting our recruitment done early and getting that group together as quickly as possible. We brought in some big characters, whether that’s Jordan Hugill, Kieran Dowell or Ben Gibson.
That’s part of what we wanted, to get rid of this feeling of losing games and getting relegated. We’ve got no time to sulk and we didn’t. Mistakes were made and we held our hands up for that, but it was about how we react and not dwelling on them.
There’s no point looking back. You’ve got to learn from what’s happened, absolutely, and analyse it, but then you’ve got to get on with it.
