His best game in a black and white shirt for me. Fantastic performance today, he was pretty much everywhere - he won the ball back so well and played it so simple. He was probably the starting point of all our attacks today. Well done Perchy.

I think a major issue was Williamson's f*** up. After that, Krul seemed reluctant to play it to the defence for a while. After a couple more attempts that ended up just going back to him again he just started frustratedly telling them to shift higher up the pitch and then he'd launch it. There probably is something in this actually. After Williamson's mistake, you could tell that alarm bells started ringing in Krul's mind. Tim just wouldn't pass it out to the defence even when they offered themselves to receive the ball short. I think there's a lack of confidence there from our defenders (Williamson and Simpson mainly) and Krul. Have to work on that.

A very unconvincing win. We started off well and did play some good stuff but then we tailed off badly. Norwich could have easily nicked a goal in the second half if they didn't have Morisson upfront on his own (had Holt started, the outcome of this game could have arguably been different). We were definitely second best in the second half seeing as we were pretty much camped inside our own area inviting pressure after pressure. I thought that we panicked for large parts of the game and this was obvious by the number of mis-placed passes and clearances we made. We should have gone at them more in the first half (and indeed the second half), that second goal would have been a nice breather but nah, we had to play it the hard way and sit back and defend the 1-0 lead. In the end though, it's still a win and it is three valuable points but we can't ignore the worrying signs.

Sky reckon 4-3-1-2. Not bad actually.

I don't mind the line up as such, I'm just having reservations about the system we're presumably adopting.

WOW!

This is rather bizarre and confusing so probably shouldn't rule it out, yeah Well, 20 minutes before we find out for sure!

No chance imo. Although.....

Miles Starforth ‏ @milesstarforth A few furrowed brows in press room over #nufc formation. Seeking confirmation, but Gutierrez expected to play at left-back.

Apparently.

To where? Who'll match his QPR wages? If West Ham manages to clinch promotion, can see really see him going there.

Good for us!

Does feel like we need the three points, which puts a sort of desperate angle on the game. I don't know. I really do see this as a "make or break" game for us.

Yep, quite nervous about this.......

If they don't secure Sigurdsson then Guthrie would be fit in well with their team/ethos.

It's a shame that he's intent on leaving. It's understandable from his point of view, I guess - unfortunately, he's not going to get in the team ahead of Cabaye and Tiote so looks like leaving would be the best move for his career. Has to be said, he's done really well when called upon this season and I really would have liked him to stay. If he does indeed leave, hope he doesn't go to Villa. Really don't trust McLeish to get the best out of him. In any case, best of luck to the lad, whatever his career path.

Diame should have done better there.

Douglas' plug: Regarding the "contract exclusive", I'm going to guess Guthrie/Simpson.

Some fantastic play from Swansea today. A much deserved victory.

Indeed, we won't know for sure how he is defensively until the lad gets an extended runout at LB.

I know they do, that's my point. It's because they are encouraged to by their manager in my view, not because they've suddenly become much better footballers. You don't think the likes of Richardson, Bridge, Bardsley and O'Shea are better on the ball than 3/4 of our most frequent back 4? If Kieron Richardson can be considered a full back, why not Shane Ferguson? How many times has Shane started at full back for us? Almost on every occasion he's started for us, as far as I'm aware.

Fantastic news! Credit to the medical staff for their quick response to the situation.

Really hope he pulls through. Thoughts are with him and his family.

f***ing hell hope he's okay.
