    ⚖️ Comparison
    Farke: Excellent at building teams in the Championship, but his Premier League record is poor (win rate ~12%).

    Postecoglou: Proven winner across multiple countries and levels, with a far stronger overall win percentage and trophies in four nations.

    Key difference: Farke is seen as a promotion specialist but struggles to sustain top‑flight survival, while Postecoglou is a serial trophy‑winner with a bold tactical identity.
    Premier League record at Norwich: 49 games → 6 wins, 8 draws, 35 losses, 31 goals scored, 101 conceded. <br>Struggled badly in the EPL despite Championship dominance. Known for possession‑based football, but often criticised for being too rigid and unable to adapt at the Premier League level.

    39 days in post, a new record for the shortest stint as a PL manager. Shame, we won't see how he was going to "turn things around"

    Feel sorry for him on many fronts but he must have known what he was getting involved with.

    As you suggest timing could have worked out better for us.
