Season 20/21: The Official Norwich City vs Swansea City Match Thread

How much dog food do you think we can make out of Lowe? Then again you wouldnt want to feed anything that insipid to your pooch.

He wouldn’t have scored today if his life depended on it

Good effort that, and pretty unlucky. Defended and attacked well enough to win. Seems like the story of us up there the last few times, Daylight robbery in 2010, dominated and lost under Potter, and stood toe to toe today and missed some great chances to seal it.

Table is utterly irrelevant and the last two matches won't decide if we go up. In fact they are grounds for building self belief. Maybe Cooper will develop from fraud to a half decent manager after all!

We're in the mix this year I think. Ayew was on it again today too, which helps. Lowe's finishing was like mine, but he did get himself there with good runs and awareness.

Pity to concede so late, but things are moving the right way.

If we are to challenge we need an out and out no 9 otherwise we come up short again and again against the better teams.

Two gilt edged chances today and both of them way too close to the keeper

First was straight at him

That 19 year old sub Mumba cruelly exposed Connor for the defensive liability that he is.

Ironically, normally we have a decent finisher but no service, this year we have loads of service but a seemingly below-par finisher.

Lowe is a decent striker though, we have to give him time. Frustrating though.

To be fair Connor defended well today - couple of vital blocks

Fkn arse nuggets. We played well enough to win that against a very good Norwich side. Even first half, great tactical change at half time that saw us control the second half up until 80 mins. Ayew hitting the post you can't do anything about as he did everything right. Lowe's got to do better though. We can't work our arses off and control games but then fail to put away our 2 gilt edge chances. Well we can, but we'll be lucky to make the playoffs that way. Really disappointing fk ups in front of goal today which let the whole team down.

And that save form Freddie. Jesus. Possibly best I've ever seen from one of our keepers, even though it was offside. He didn't know that though.

Agree was a superb save

Would also save that based on today's game these two sides will be there or therabouts at the end of the season

Norwich are the best team we have played yet IMO

If you take another look, you'll see it was Smith on Mumba when he put the cross in, I thought Roberts all round game was excellent.

His instincts are right. He's getting into the right positions. If he was a total duffer he wouldn't even be doing that.

For whatever reason the finish isn't there with him right now. Maybe a lack of confidence, may be a lack of quality. I don't think we're doing him any favours leaving him in the firing line at the minute because it'll just become a vicious circle. Time to start Gyokeres or even Cullen.

Looking at the rest of the games in November we have three games that are winnable, if we play anywhere near to what we have in the last four we should be winning all three possibly two if we get 7 pts we will still be in the mix by the end of the month as there is only 3 pts separating brentford in 11th to us in 6th.
