Pretty confident on those 10, fitness permitting. Right side is a bit harder to call, I think McAteer is possibly the more pragmatic call that McKenna will go with, although he played most of the game on Tuesday so Egeli might be favoured.

What are we saying?

We didn't spend £17.5m on him just for this season, either. He's a longer-term development project, with that requiring him to be used carefully to start off with. Walle Egeli is only 18*, after all, still very early in his senior football career.



* I know people cite teenage prodigies like Owen and Rooney performing in the Prem at 16 or 17, but they are very much the exception rather than the rule.


We also need to stop thinking that to start a game is so much better than coming off the bench, those days have gone..

Re. Walle Egeli - we didn't spend £17.5m for him to sit on the bench for games like this. He's a potential match-winner, so I expect him to start over McAteer for most home games when the onus is firmly on us.


I agree and hope so.

Wouldn't surprise me if he plays Clarke on the Right from the off.

That's the team, with McAteer on the right, barring any injuries or illness. The team on Tuesday was picked as part of a 3-game week*, with this key game in mind.

* is it still really a '3-game week' when the 3rd game is scheduled for the Sunday? one for the philosophers on here perhaps.

This right hand side seems some what of a stumbling block start of this season and hopefully something that gets sorted sooner rather than later really

I can't see any other than McAteer simply because of his experience but I fully expect Egeli to make this spot his own by Christmas


Mental to think we've spent over £30m on the right side of our pitch in the summer and its the weak link in our team

Might be worth remembering Norwich have struggled massively down their left side this season. Notable LB injuries. This is a area we should be targeting. Hopefully this is the game for Walle to flourish.

It won't be this, but I think extra experience and physicality in places could be good:

Palmer
Young O'Shea Kipré Davis
Matusiwa Cajuste
Egeli Szmodics Akpom
Hirst


Philogene?

Big call on the right isn’t it.

Throw an absolute curveball on the right.

Agree with the OP

On the right side my heart says Egeli cos he is a natural talent and an unknown quantity for the Nodge team but my head says McAteer because he tracks back and defends more and is more familiar playing with Sammie.

10,9 and RM still look like missing pieces of the puzzle currently, regardless of who you want to put in there.

I think it needs to be egeli. I can't see the development benefit of getting 15 minutes of a game. It takes especially a youngster 5 or 10 minutes to get into a game.

Think egeli needs to start. Mcateer to finish
