Norwich City are coming out the other side of the October international break looking to maintain their positive good run of form.
The Canaries won three and drew one of their last four league games prior to the pause in league action over the last couple of weeks.
Johannes Hoff Thorup’s side has seen a number of players step up after an initially slow start to life working under the Dane, who was appointed as manager over the summer.
Supporters will be hoping that the squad can maintain their good form and challenge for a top six finish again this season.
Norwich earned a play-off place last year but missed out on promotion after a semi-final loss to Leeds United.
When asked which player at the club should be playing at a higher level, FLW’s Norwich fan pundit Zeke Downes claimed that Marcelino Nunez has the best case.
While he believes the likes of Josh Sargent, Borja Sainz and Callum Doyle could all be picked as well, he feels Nunez has the most capability to take a step up a level at the moment of the squad’s permanent members.
“The one player that I think should be playing at a higher level is actually [Marcelino] Nunez,” Downes told Football League World.
“That might surprise a few people, but I think that the better the team is around him the more he shines.
