    The result is massive, but the workrate, effort and desire were all there too. We're a part of this relegation scrap, even if others have games in hand.

    Watford(A) next is massive, in our own hands to be outside the bottom 3 I think? Could also put either team in touching distance of dragging Everton/Leeds back into things.

    Really pleased with a home win, need some belief at home with the fixtures still to play at Carrow Road.
    Palace, Man City, Brentford, Chelsea, Burnley, Newcastle, West Ham, Spurs still to come at home. 4 must win games (bold) and other opportunities for points.

    Idah's height was needed from the high balls , great touches and hardly put a foot wrong

    The only thing I would say about games in hand is that at the bottom it feels like they’re just as much a risk of goal difference hitting…

    Agreed it gave us a genuine outlet and the fluid positioning with Pukki worked really well

    Idah, with real time on the pitch, has really begun to prove his worth. I thought he was a real handful for their defence. And I see Lees-Mellou has got a high rating as well.

    I don't think Farke would have started with 3 forwards and it just shows Smith isn't set in 1 style of play with his favourites

    Well done Canaries. Hanley and Idah were excellent.
    I hope you stay up.

    They host Watford on Tuesday and then go to Arsenal on the following Monday, so hopefully another draw against Watford.

    I'm a big Kenny fan but we looked better without him .

    He's been guilty of some pretty crap shooting from distance and has less bite in midfield.

    He and Gilmore will have to fight to get back in the team

    Agreed. He’s also not sharp enough at closing down in midfield to break it up - needs a rest, because sometimes he’s excellent.
