Norwich City’s Liam Gibbs Reflects on the Untimely International Break

Norwich City’s momentum took an unfortunate hit as the international break arrived just after they secured their first league victory of the season. This sentiment is echoed by Canaries midfielder Liam Gibbs, who played a crucial role in the 1-0 win over Coventry, a match that finally rewarded Norwich with the points they deserved after several near misses.

Gibbs expressed frustration over the timing of the break, which interrupted the team’s rhythm just as they seemed to be finding their footing. “Everyone was buzzing after that win,” Gibbs shared, reflecting on the excitement within the squad. “Getting our first win was crucial, and it felt like we were just about to build on that, but then everything was put on hold because of the international fixtures.”

Despite the disruption, Gibbs is trying to stay positive. He noted that while the break came at an inconvenient time, it also offers an opportunity for players who aren’t on international duty to focus on refining their individual skills. “This time allows us to fine-tune aspects of our game that we might not have had the chance to work on if we had another match right away,” he explained.

Looking ahead, Gibbs is eager for the team to regroup and channel their energy into the next challenge. With Swansea on the horizon, he’s optimistic that the break, though poorly timed, can still be used to the team’s advantage. “We’re still putting in the hard work and getting ready for the return of the full squad. The focus is on coming back stronger and continuing to build on our recent performance.”

For Gibbs and his teammates, the goal is clear: use this brief hiatus to improve, return refreshed, and continue their push towards a successful season. The midfielder remains confident that Norwich City will emerge from the break ready to prove that their first win was just the beginning.
