Tough game today. Norwich are flying at the top, bang in form and we never seem to be at our best after an international break. But I guess this is a true litmus test of where we're at right now and I'm hoping that the lads will be up to the job. Perhaps a point wouldn't be the worst result and a draw is my gut feeling. But, letting my heart rule my head, I'm going for a 2-1 win. And it would be good to see Bony and Montero get some more match minutes under their belts.

Potter has obviously found his best starting XI and I agree with him. What surprises me is two left-backs on the bench and no Montero.

As you say CJ, strange no Montero, he and Bony are always a possible goal scoring combination, Montero with his crosses and Bony with his aerial power in the box.

I can’t help but feel like Nordfeldt would’ve stopped some of these goals. (Grabs my coat and heads for the door...)

Fer played as though he was still in the Norwich team , every pass went to someone in yellow , Celina had a poor game.Grimes was outstanding , James and Ollson played well.
Defensively naive in the first half we gifted them goals . We huffed and puffed but never bothered the Canaries defence.
They were stronger , quicker and better organised than the swans and more importantly clinical in front of goal .

We need to regroup quickly and find some form for Wednesday night !

Toshack on tv ... Norwich haven't done any thing special .... they've scored two fucking goals.
Had a quick word with Tosh before the game in the lift with @Ladygargar. Bet he wished he didn't bother after that non-performance! Norwich were nothing special but we we worse....... far worse. The lads just didn't seem up for this game and all Norwich had to do was take advantage of some shit defending, outright sloppy passing and lethargic performances. Not much more to say about the game because you all saw what I did. CRAP!!

But every cloud has a silver lining and I at least got to watch the game with the charming LadyGG :) who is great company and my thanks to her for that.

I failed to get a stream for the game today, doesn't look like I missed much, couldn't believe it when I checked the score just after the half hour 0-3.
