Johannes Hoff Thorup is in the building, and Norwich City's new era is underway at Carrow Road.

The 35-year-old head coach was officially presented to supporters and media as David Wagner's replacement on Friday, by sporting director Ben Knapper.

Both spoke for 36 minutes at a press conference led by the Pinkun covering all the key topics.

After the Carrow Road touchpoint, host Adam Harvey was joined by Paddy Davitt and Samuel Seaman to chat with supporters, and dissect what Thorup and Knapper had to say.

Here is a flavour of the full hour long discussion you can watch above.

AH: Paddy, I'll come to you first. You've done quite a few of these probably, in the past with different managers. What did you make of his first words, and maybe how did that compare to previous managers you've heard from before at their official unveiling?

PD: I thought he was very self-assured, very confident and there was a clear sense he knows what he's all about. Nothing fazed him, from transfer window scenarios to leaving Denmark and preparing to encounter what, for him, is completely new territory now. Lots of positivity and reasons to be optimistic from listening to him and Ben Knapper, and hope that there's a good future around the corner.

Also worth pointing out, because there was a little bit in the Danish media that almost give the suggestion that this coming season will be a transition one, he was very keen to shut that idea down. He made it clear that he believes with this group of players, with the right additions, they can be pushing right up the table.

It may still turn into a transition season. But there's no sense from the main man in charge  that he views this as a building block type season. You asked for a comparative to previous managers, and probably the only one comparable recently was Daniel Farke, because that felt like a new dawn and a new era and the club trying to do something different and go in a different direction.

There was a lot of that in this press conference. Albeit you are coming from different starting points. I think, financially, there's a bit more stability now with the American presence in the boardroom. So that is a contrast between now and 2017.

Dean Smith's appointment was very much kind of going through the motions. I don't recall coming away from his opening press conference and thinking Norwich were now in the hands of someone who was striving to be quite visionary and quite progressive.

I think it felt quite tried and trusted. And at that point, to be fair to the club, maybe they thought Dean Smith was what was needed to try and keep them in the division. As we know, it turned out not to be the case. And it's been a bit of a tale of woe subsequently.

Thorup sat alongside Kanpper felt like a very definitive break from the past. If I'm a Norwich City fan I'm quite excited about what the future holds. 

AH: We heard a lot from Ben Knapper about his vision, Sam, and how he sees football and how he feels there is an alignment with Thorup. What about that sentiment of taking this in a different direction? felt like they've evolved within quite aligned to that, of course, he's sort of echoed I suppose that sentiment a little bit today and sort of referencing that, you know, they want to take it in a slightly different direction. What did Thorup have to say about his view of football and do you think Norwich fans will buy into that?

SS: I think you could take as much from the way they spoke about each other as you could what Knapper had to say about Wagner and the reason he sort of dispensed with him. Ultimately, it was the reasons everyone was talking about, in terms of the pathway for young players and the style of play that Knapper wanted to see.

That is what we have taken from Thorup's time at FC Nordsjælland and although everyone will be aware of what his principles were at that club it was encouraging for fans to hear him discuss that outlook in terms of what Norwich are going to look like, going forward. He also spoke about the fact that he feels the players they have currently are maybe more suited to that system, and that he feels they have the technical ability to go and do that.

So the signs for anyone who chiefly wanted the tactics to change and are excited about this appointment, from that point of view, will be really pleasing. It wasn't as vague as a lot of coaches tend to be in disucssing style of play, it wasn't as vague as Wagner was when he first came to the club and sort of discussed his style of play, or especially Dean Smith who didn't really talk about any style of play at all, at any point.

So for people who've missed that, and who want to see a demonstrable and reliable identity from their club, there'll be really pleased with that, because not only are those principles he has shown at his previous club but that is what Knapper wants as well.

It feels everyone is now aligned on this possession-based attacking style of football. And I think when you see the coaches who have been loved the most at Carrow Road, or the teams we look back on most fondly it's always been that positive, more attacking style of football. So I think that bodes really well for the future. And, yes, I think it was definitely a huge part of Knapper's decision to hire Thorup, as he suggested in many different ways across the press conference.
