Norwich fans' interesting reaction to Jacob Murphy's £12m move to NUFC
Jacob Murphy completed his £10m move (rising to £12m) to Newcastle yesterday, and following the announcement, Norwich fans have taken to Twitter to have their say on his big money transfer to Tyneside.
Murphy enjoyed a breakthrough season at Norwich last season, racking up 13 goals and 6 assists in all competitions for The Canaries, however the 22-year old is still considered to be a player with 'potential' opposed to the finished article.
We took to Twitter to get the thoughts of those who know him well at Norwich City and it made for some interesting reading:

Some really interesting comments.
It's clear that Norwich fans not only hold him in high regard as a player, but also as a person and professional.
There is some interesting suggestions that he would've benefited from another season with Norwich in the Championship, but with Murphy's rise from League One, to the Championship, to then performing for England U-21's on the International stage, you can see why Benitez believes he's capable of making the step up once again.
