Should be a good open game with two technically sound sides looking to score goals.
There are four or more Norwich players worth scouting for when they are relegated at the end of this season. I like their fullbacks.
Forecast.
Norwich 3 Wolves 3.

Another one of the teams we are likely to slip up against but after such a great performance yesterday, we need to bounce back strongly. Hard to call this one, a draw would be OK but you feel we need the win before the hard Xmas fixtures kick in.

They will have their tails up after their past few results and I just can't see us keeping clean sheets at present, that defence just can't manage it at this level.
Hopefully Jimenez is back on form and we can outgun them. What will be interesting is to see whether we take any of the Spurs performance into the game or we are back to our Brighton/Sheff Utd level of slowly grinding through the game.

Just looking at previous performances a game played at a fast tempo suits both sides.
Then its about who takes their chances on the day..

Apparently the Norwich folk hate us second only to Ipswich, so hope the players are up for this. Points before our double header are much needed.

Pukki should be out with a broken toe.

Then its about who takes their chances on the day.. We'll need to see better decision making from our front 3 than we have of late. They seem to be taking the selfish option more often than not. It's a team game.

I doubt there will be a more shittier goal given away by Wolves this season than that one, shocking.

twenty minutes in and it is very embarrassing. Could be four down already.
Make that five.

All a bit embarrassing after last weeks grt performance by everyone. Just about everyone bar Rui playing rubbish. Is it back to not being able to play against teams at the bottom of the league? Defence is looking woeful, and Norwich first to everything.

Awful planning to hold the Xmas party on the morning of the game.
Truly embarrassing performance being served up here. This is right up with any rubbish we served up under Connor for our worst ever PL display.
Please have those new signings ready to play on 1st January. We cannot keep going with Dendoncker and Saiss as our main defenders. They cannot keep a clean sheet to save their lives and Coady is totally exposed.

1-0 Half time.
Worst performance so far this season and I bet Nuno is really getting stuck in right now.
It looks like they went out on the pitch expecting an easy three points.

Surely this is tiredness catching up with us?
Most of the 11 out there today have started the past few games with Nuno making only very late substitutions and sometimes not utilising all three.

Nuno's half time talk must have been a bit special - not half as crap in the 2nd half. Good 3 points, makes up a bit for Spurs.

Chalk and cheese to last week. An excellent display for no reward at all there, today a horrendous 1st half then a pretty average 2nd half but 3 points.
Good to get those points on the board before the two big boys, even if the performance left a heck of a lot to be desired.

Norwich are relegated on that display. 3 points from 45 minutes for us, cant complain really. We need some player options in January and I hope admin dont sit contented on our league placing and ignore the obvious.

Sounds like I chose a good one to miss.... Decided trips to Newcastle & Norwich were just not wise from here, and at this time...
Hope for better at Liverpool and Watford (not to mention the little home games of Man City & Man Utd too!

A different second half. We improved, and they went to pieces. Traore tore them apart in the second half unlike the first when they ran right through us. Happy with the three points, but we will need to improve if we want to get anything from the next two.

Makes up for last week. Abject for an hour then pulled it round late on.

Started Xmas early by playing Monopoly and using up all of our "Get Out Of Jail Free" cards.. Good teams win ugly at times, we have become a good team these days. Merry Xmas everyone.
