Apparently Ole has come out and said he ‘hopes we can beat Norwich’.
There’s more than an element of Moyes-isms contained in that statement! I think this is most definitely a potential banana-skin this game but surely we’ll have enough to at least shade this.
What’s really worrying me is the lack of goals we just don’t score them from open play. And of course, looking at the table we have to win this game and start picking up points in the league.

See with this lot you just don't know what you're going to get from minute to minute in a game, Ole can set them up to do a job but whether they execute it as instructed is an entirely different thing.
I think you'll see more of the same 3-5-2 and dropping to a back 4 when necessary simply because it covers up a multitude of deficiencies we have at present. Although teams have well and truly sussed out how to play against us and the counter attack, it's still our best shot till we get the likes of Pogba back.

When teams decide to sit back and play it tight we genuinely just don’t know how to break them down throughout a game. The only chance we have is sliding balls down the wing to Dan James and Rashford but we just don’t do it enough. I think Norwich will be up for it and make it difficult but as I say surely you’re going to see some urgency from us during the game, I mean look at the table, 10 points, we drastically need these 3 points. |

Don't sweat it.
We can have a 'staying up' party when we break the magic 40 point barrier :lol:

I know! Just the 30 points off that.
Honestly if we lose this I don’t know how Ole stays in a job.
If there’s anybody who should be getting the bullet it’s the useless twat who’s our CEO but I can’t see a way out for Ole whatsoever.
We don’t score goals so I’m hoping we scrape this. How standards have fallen. Jesus wept.

We were Scrappy mid-week and Norwich are no push-overs at home. We I think will defend in bulk and hope to catch them on a breakaway. I am not a fan of Martial but hope that by saying that he has a good game just to spite me. Narrow win I hope for.

Will be a tricky match, they are a well set up side and were great against Citeh. We will have to be right on our game, hopefully the away win midweek has given us a boost and we can get the victory.

I even don’t really know how that even gives us a boost because we were dreadful in that game. God knows what’s going to happen in this game. |

Huge win and a good performance. From first minute to almost the last, great fight and energy, we got right on top of them and didn’t let Norwich play their game. Played some great football, pass and move, always looking to get forward and open them up. Front four linked up really well and were trying to get on the scoresheet. We should have scored more and should have got the clean sheet but that was our first away win god knows so I’ll let them off. Up to seventh, build on this and we’ll climb the table further  |

Didn’t see the game guys, but happy with that result!
Great that we scored 3! Being picky, how in the name of Zeus did we miss two penalties?? We need a designated penalty taker.
We’ve gone up a few places in the table which is fantastic, as you say to 7th. Looking at it we’re above Spurs now and only 3 points off Arsenal. If we can get a bit of a run going we might have a glimmer of hope in relation to getting top four.
I’ll always take a 1-3 away victory.
I think 7 points off Chelsea is do-able, we can reel them in.
