Well what a fantastic start for Norwich. Okey so we aren't bottom but along with Rotherham, we are the only team without a win. And it is so so frustrating.
At the moment I am thinking we will go down. Not the same attitude as last year.
"We're in top flight for the first time on 9 years and we're staying!".
Okey so we have only lost to Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool and Everton. Good teams but we have also played Crystal Palace, Portsmouth, Tottenham, Newcastle, West Brom and Aston Villa and came out with a point.
Three of them we really should of won. ie- like dominating the second half. Like today for example against Everton. First half 2 nil down.. fair enuff.. we did look like we belonged in the old division one. But in the 2nd half, we came out completly different team. Caught up with them 2-2 and so nearly won. A cheeky Everton header after a bit of confusion over an Everton player diving lead to them winning 2-3 but all in all the second half was ours. Passing was fantastic.
Okey, with an easier string of matches ahead (Man City, Blackburn and Southampton) hopefully we can start our season properly. We really do have the players.. an England keeper and 5 other internationals but I hope we make use of this next transfer window.
Ohwell, better catch MOTD and this might be the only year we are on it.

Cup game tonight against Newcastle... lost 2-1. First half we were useless. Newcastles passing was superb and we were totally dominated. Second half, we got a penalty and really lifted the whole team. Played well, not brilliantly but very much improved in the last 45. Now why cant we do that in the first half I dont know. But if we did, with the chances we created, we could of been through to the next round.
As for Monday night at Man City. I really dont know. I can feel us getting something from it to be honest.

I think Norwich'll stay up; they just really need to make a move getting some points on the board. Draws aren't going to get you far in the Premiership unfortunately.

...I think not, although Man City have been lacking in recent years since their return to the top flight (and selling Huckerby to Norwich didn't help their cause), I just can't see them dropping 3 points to Norwich - a draw if Norwich are lucky.

I see Norwich's dilemma though, the board don't expect much of Worthington and I think in turn he's being a bit negative about his team's status because of it. Match of the Day tonight... he said when they went level at 2-2 he couldn't see them winning it and they lost 3-2. That is a killer for morale, sack him and bring in someone that has a more determined outlook despite not having the pressure on them.
They might stay up that way.

To be honest I think a point against Portsmouth, Tottenham, Newcastle and Villa are good points. The problem with Norwich at the moment is the dropping points against other promotion teams. I think Norwich don't have the depth to stay up, which is a pity because I like them. At the moment I see them losing Green and then having to rely solely on Huckeby.
