Tbh it should have been at least 2-0 at HT and it wouldn't have mattered so much.

Absolute quality from the young lad, wins a fabulous header, then chases it down to get on the end of it, wonderful.

Lucky lucky fcker, but that's all you need i suppose.

1st half - It's like the lads said ...fck this yank he don't know what he's on about let's go back to Bertball

2nd Half - Self inflicted square pegs into round holes when all was fine, just no need.

Now does anybody see why PB KP and LC are needed sooooooooooooooooooooo much....and that's just 1 of them!!!
I’m with you totally 🤣
I’m just offering a reason for what happened
I’m not saying I agree with it

Agreed, but today was an absolute must win and we did. Wasn't pretty and we should have been out of sight, but things like this can really change a season.

Yes mate, but the drive and desire was back, still can't score or defend

Koch is not a CM he's completely ineffective in that role but bizzarely we still continue with it. He needs to be played in his natural position or not at all.

A win's a win Might not have been very pretty but it's a much needed 3 points, when you're at the wrong end of the table that's what matters

What a game. I was in a garden center with my elderly mother and I swear to god my phone almost went across the room when Norwich scored. I checked my phone again literally a couple of minutes later and it was 2-1. Unbelievable! Not good for the heart. We're still alive...just.

Perhaps we could play him as a defender which is what he’s supposed to be
MB and JM must see something else in training, who knows?

The experiment with Koch in midfield...or on the pitch in general needs to be ended...it just doesn't work

Wasn't aimed at you Finn, i meant the Joffy 1

Yes you throw Joffy on and pray something like that happens, but as for it being a huge tactical ploy that worked, give me a break.

It's a last minute gamble that worked.

There shouldn't even have had to be any last minute gamble the mans a fcking loonball.
