Lambert on hunt for right-back

Mon, 02 Nov 14:51:32 2009

Norwich boss Paul Lambert has revealed he is looking to bring a new right-back to the club.

Left-back Adam Drury was forced to fill in on the right side in the 3-1 win over Stockport at the weekend following injuries to Jon Otsemobor, Michael Spillane and George Francomb.

Lambert was impressed with Drury's performance on his 300th appearance for the club but is eager to bring in extra cover.

"Adam did great. But this club only has one recognised right-back, which is strange," Lambert told Norwich Evening News. "We have to try to address it. I hope Jon will be back next week and then we'll try to get somebody because one right-back is never enough."

Meanwhile, midfielder Matthew Gill will undergo checks on Monday to see the extent of the calf injury which forced him off against Stockport in his first senior match since August.

  1. We definately need cover at right-back. we looked­ shaky on the flank on saturday. Yes Drury covered well,­ but their left-side attack appeared to be much better­ than they actually were.

  2. as long as its just the 1 and whoever is signed is only­ played when needed and not at the expense of our own­ players who have been brilliant , even doherty has­ been looking pretty good of late , its not too bad.....
