Great goal that.... Proper team goal.

Nmecha has really looked good. Starch wins it then lays it off into the exact space at the exact pace for nmecha.... Lay off to piroe and no one in the team in that position you'd want to finish it.

It's more he's not a hold up man really. I don't think I'd know who'd win a 40 sprint between DCL and Piroe, neither are quick

Agreed but they just picked goal scorers and the assister..

Both in the Cup.
Fair play WR, you stuck by Longstaff even when all the cynics on here doubted you.

:lol: t won't be 4-0 this time, but we will see another Norwich victory. Let me dream - the Canaries can make it to Wembley.

Sutton's prediction: 1-2, after extra time :lol:

Longstaff had a very good first half - matched up physically in first half. Nice distribution and a quality finish for the goal. He was getting leggy as the game went on. But a good runout for him.

Job done.
The draw has been kind to us so far, what's the betting we get an away trip to one of the big four.
Arsenal will probably get a home game against Port Vale
