Norwich post match thread

We as fans turning into moaning self righteous arses. Certainly where I sit. Wasn't 5 nil after 30 min so we were shit
 
I thought hope and despair were manageable. What isn't manageable and is becoming increasingly difficult is 'expectation'. I always think that when the odds seem stacked in our favour and formality is knocking at the door, summat will go belly up. What I think we will avoid, no matter what the outcome at the end of this and future seasons, is 'entitlement'! There are plenty of fans around who seem to have a monopoly on that.
 
Sat in the new stand today. At 80 mins everyone started to leave. I'd rather stand anyway but meant we all had to keep standing to see the game. Same before half time. Personally I never leave before the game's finished unless I'm desperate for a piss. But even then what's an extra 5 mins? And missed the winning goal didn't they. Stay and suupport the team ffs.
 
I think Bony is struggling with the mentality of being a 2nd choice striker and playing at a club of our current stature.

Twice today he tried to hit the ball as hard as he could rather than use the technique he obviously has. I remember his first goal for us where he swept a volley into the far corner when most players would have put their foot through it. Time and time again he showed his technique at Swansea and we haven't really seen that here.

I think the relief he shown a few weeks ago when he scored a late 2nd shows the pressure he's under.

That said, I don't understand why Raheem and Kolarov didn't let Bony take that penalty. Last kick of the game and a chance to give him some confidence.
 
We were awful today but three points keeps us top and we have silva and aguero returning soon.

Some European games have been Hart against 21.

As for today I was a bit disappointed we made such hard work of beating a team that lost 6-2 at Newcastle a few weeks ago. OK the game isn't that easy and they parked a double-decker but they aren't in the bottom third cos they're a good team.
Otto MOTM and that's for his overall performance not just his goal. We really shouldn't have a central defender as MOTM against Norwich.
But onwards and upwards. And get Sergio and Dave back bloody quick.

Awful? Against a well drilled 9 man defence leaving no space between the lines

Awful by our standards certainly. A lack of invention and a slower tempo doesn't help. We know they are capable of much much better but I stand by what I say the three points was the most important thing.

Not showing on mine either. I seem to recall the pre bet disclaimer saying it could take a few days before showing on your account, so I'm not unduly worried.

You can't have actually watched us in Europe then, because Hart's best performances have been there. In fact his Champs league performances have been nothing short of fucking excellent. So that part of your post was just bollocks. The rest was merely nonsense.
