Norwich Match Day Thread

[nortonwolf]

It is a bit quiet here today, crowd not fired up... expecting three points? The goal celebrations very muted because of VAR generated paranoia... F**k VAR!

Enjoying the Diogo show in any case 👍

HT 2-0 Whilst (IMO) there was nothing wrong with the two Wolves goals it must be said they did come completely against the run of play. Norwich were playing some good football and we looked rather flat and disinterested by comparison. Eventually we improved, but barely enough to deserve the two goal lead. Fingers out you Wolves !!!

[WOODLANDSWOLF]

Our flat/disinterested early approach to games, as describded, has to be a factor in the atmosphere created.

Oh $hit, here we go, another goal! Will this be the day we actually stick 5 or 6 up somebody.

3-0. Jota almost had another hat trick, but it hit the post and bounced straight to Jimenez to tap it in

[WOODLANDSWOLF]

Bring Traore on in about 10 mins and really put them to the sword!

I'll be glad when this game is over, it's such a non event it's boring my pants off!

FT. 3-0... Thankfully, Wolves performance in the second half did much to justify the convincing result at the end of the day. Badly let down by a defence totally out of it's depth in the P.L., it's almost certain Norwich will be heading back down at the end of the season.
Shame really. for a team that, occasionally, has shown itself capable of mixing it with the 'big boys', but at the end of the day will have little to show for it. Never mind, we got our three points didn't we? Let's hope good performances during the coming weeks will secure a place for us in Europe next season.

You can only play against what the opposition put out. Norwich are not bottom without reason. After a spirited start by the Canaries. we eventually started to get on top and once Jota had scored, it was all about game management. We could have chased about and still have won three nil, however, we still have a hopefully long season ahead.

In the end we did not need to bust a gut, and ***** energy reserves have been saved for Espanyol on Thursday and Spurs next weekend. It was a badly needed three points, and our goal difference looks a little better, plus another clean sheet.

I expected more from Norwich, especially after their great performance against Liverpool. It is a long drive back for their supporters after being outplayed.

I think if I am to be critical the worst aspect of today’s performance was surrendering so much possession to Norwich, 60/40 in their favour. Having said that there was some cracking short passing through their midfield second half, a great performance from Jota and Saiss, another clean sheet, a welcome return for Vinagre... and last but far from least kudos to Connor Coady who has played every minute of our last 100 league games... superstar!

[WOODLANDSWOLF]

Outstanding statistic regarding Coady, what an achievement.

Looking back at the last two games we have played against two pitifully poor defences, but we did what we had to do, stuck a total of seven goals past them even while playing well below our best.

Hopefully the plan was to keep plenty in reserve for the Spurs game and hopefully it pays off!
