The U-21 European Championships last summer wasn’t exactly what you’d call a raging success for England. They were thoroughly outplayed and the disappointing tournament marked the end of the road for Stuart Pearce’s reign. The only real positive to emerge from the tournament was the form of Nathan Redmond.

Redmond made the move up from Birmingham City in the Championship to Norwich and has featured heavily since the start of the campaign. He was drafted straight into the starting line up by Chris Hughton and started all of the first 5 games of Norwich’s campaign even netting his 1st goal for the club in a 1-0 win against high flying Southampton.

He was dropped from the team for a run of games featuring mostly off the bench but soon reclaimed his spot in the starting XI. He’s started every one of Norwich’s last 8 games chalking up 3 assists and generally impressing for the Canaries.

Norwich spent quite an amount in the previous transfer window and I think it’s fair to say that in the case of Redmond at least it was money well spent. Hughton has shown faith in the youngster and will hopefully continue to do so for the remainder of the season.
