3. Norwich signed the wrong strikers
At the start Ricky van Wolfswinkel looked like a good signing for a smart price, but I, among many football fans were sceptical of their purchase of Celtic’s Gary Hooper, a striker who had only impressed in the Scottish Premier League which is far below the standards of BPL. Leroy Fer has impressed when he could, and van Wolfswinkel has tussled with injury, though Norwich signed small game players to not only try and beat relegation, but also to push up the table. Needless to say, their plan has backfired. It will be hard for Norwich to sign any players of real stature when the January transfer window opens within a matter of days, and it also may be hard to justify the signings of more attacking players when that is their deepest department, but they must look into it, even if they have to sell their newest acquisitions.
