I'd be quite happy with that. Certainly a Warnockesque winger. I know his end product wasn't great but he tore us a new arse last season.
He did in the home game. IIRC he was up against Manga.
Can’t remember him doing much in the away game though.
Also would expect the fee to be pretty big
However, if he reaches his potential then he could be very valuable. He’s certainly fast and still very young
Based in East Anglia - he is nowhere close to his brother. Moderate championship level at best- if they are looking at Norwich then Lewis left back is going to be a top class player, much more worth a punt

Is he theirs ? Or on loan ?
Sky Bet have us at 1/5 odds on to sign him now
We were 1/8 to have Shearer as manager back in the day.
Someone has basically put a 50 quid bet on.

Appears I know my stuff when it comes to our gaffer, obviously should've backed my judgement at the bookies

Norwich local press stating he has been in Cardiff over the weekend, could be our first signing of the summer.
Murphy seems to fit the description of signing young, better than average championship players who might make the step up to the premier league but would also stay and help us back again if we do go down
Im on train back from Gatwick; having spent last 2 weeks in Florida so not had chance to check in usual places.
BBC reporting now though.

Was hoping we would go in for him.
Couldn’t hold his place in mid-table Norwich side, NML is FAR better
I always thought he was supposed to be highly rated, warnock knows his wingers

What Norwich fans are saying
John Percy the telegraph midland reporter says on twitter medical this morning.
I thought we only had 20 million to spend and were looking at fees and loans. It's almost as if we didn't want to shout that we had a decent transfer budget to drive up fees.
Good luck to him for the future but it is good business for Norwich - £10m for someone who can't defend, has one good game in six and can only cross a ball at 100mph.
Also gets another £28k per week off the wage bill so that saves another £1.5 million per year
Nice pick the one quote that backs up your opinion
Selling players responsible for 20 of your 49 goals is not negative? I give up.... and sorry not having a pop but I did not get into football to celebrate the money clubs give us for our best players. Just odd...
For the record I would like us to keep him.. or at the very least keep one of him and Madders. Sell both it shows how bad our cash flow issues are..
one quote? Look at the full thread from the pink ‘un. That’s a pretty consistent view and having seen Norwich a lot over the last 5 years he is one of the most frustrating players I have seen - that said NW had plans for Paterson which we didn’t see so maybe he has a plan for Murphy too. Actually could be a useful and very quick 10
A young winger being frustrating in a poorly coached team isn’t surprising though is it? Didn’t he get 11 goals and 9 assists in a pretty average team last season?
Gutted to be losing him as I don't think it will be easy to find a replacement who offers what he can. Hence it looks like he's getting a prem move.
Homegrown too which we must take into account.
Surprised and disappointed by this. I wish the lad well though. With Madison sure to leave too, the new incomings are going to have to hit the ground running to replace the goal threat of these two.
My thought is good luck to the lad. If he can prove himself in the PL then why not ?
Both Josh and Jacob have been great players and great lads at NCFC
Both are also a testament to how well our youth development has been.
He's bloody quick - I can remember saying if he had an end product he would be unplayable when Norwich were here.
Lets hope that under a decent coach (Norwich looked a side full of good individuals being badly coached) he can get that right. Definitely a positive signing.

Welcome home mate, and many congratulations both. I first put his name forward weeks ago, your slipping up big time
