ricardo 7,239 Posted February 2, 2019 As good as I 've seen and to be honest I didn't expect it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shefcanary 2,338 Posted February 2, 2019 I am bursting after that. Just fantastic, this is no hyperbole. That game will be remembered for generations. Astounding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HertsCanary93 222 Posted February 2, 2019 That second half performance was up there with the best I've seen us play. The midfield in particular was monumental. Vrancic can get some stick for not getting stuck in - but good god he put a shift in this evening. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
East Rider 538 Posted February 2, 2019 Great team effort, and I thought some of our players had more in the engine if needed. Easier game than anyone could have predicted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bill 1,788 Posted February 2, 2019 A very determined and hard fought performance. Not once did they let up and it llooked tonight as if Farke had told them to attack, and attack again. Player were running at Leeds with the ball. Tippity tap was used to keep possession after winning the ball. I'm not sure in Vrancic was wearing a shift, or something but he certainly got stuck in this evening. As with Steiperman he just looks better by the game. And aside from the result it was a cracking game to watch, a real blood and thunder game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even the Neutrals must have been having a time with that. Then the second half started and Norwich knew exactly what to do. The shots/attempts dropped precipitously in the second half and we drained them. Brilliant football! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duke63 535 Posted February 2, 2019 Anyone else think this is some of the best Football City have ever played? I'm 55 years old so seen a lot of good City teams and us nearly win the Premier League but..we really are something quite special this season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it is even though you tend to see today's play through tinted glasses. But, overall, I believe this is the best I've watched. And I'm older than you! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doubted we could have come away with three points, but watching that, we were awesome! Going up up up! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Bristol Nest 512 Posted February 2, 2019 Vrancic was outstanding. Great team performance but Mario was immense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blademark 29 Posted February 2, 2019 Outstanding is the right word, you were very impressive, and have been for a while now. I've just tipped you on our board to win the league, and I hope we are one place behind you. Good luck, if your defence was slightly better (keeper dodgy), I think you'd be a shoe in. 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not sure if the 'Champions of Europe' could handle their club falling apart ... yet again. But I'm sure there's plenty of your lot (and even the blue side of the city) who will have enjoyed tonight - more so if you know any of these all white unfortunates. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,351 Posted February 2, 2019 So I can't 'like' Blademarks post! WTF?? From what I've seen the last couple of weeks Norwich & Sheffield UTD are the best two teams. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairy Canary 628 Posted February 2, 2019 Outstanding is exactly the right word for it. What a Fantastic performance.  Going to be two from the top three imo. whoever misses out is going to find it hard to take. Still think it will be us and Leeds in the end.

Yellow Green Army 236 Posted February 2, 2019 I think we may see Leeds slowly slip away now. Tough game for them next week. Us and Sheffield Utd top 2, West Brom 3rd 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's Character Forming 1,156 Posted February 2, 2019 I thought some of our attacking play was scintillating and while Leeds looked efficient and direct in attack we looked a class above. In midfield we were just superb, moving it quickly and first to the ball so often. Â defensively we were sound against the team with the best home record in the division. Â Krul made several excellent saves I thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
