Power Hamster 0 Posted September 16, 2011 From David Cuffley''s article today:Whatever else has gone wrong, Norwich are still the team to have covered more ground than any other in the Premier League this season, and Bradley Johnson’s 8.39 miles against Chelsea is the single greatest distance covered by one player in a match. No one can say they aren’t fit.Is this because we are fitter than other teams. or simply because we have spent most of the last two matches chasing the game? Hopefully it is superior fitness, as that could be a big plus later in the season when there will be relegation battles to be won, and we need to "grind out" crucial 1-0 wins.

curly_whirly_tipz 0 Posted September 16, 2011 I am only going to take this as a positive. We certainly havent looked out of place and I dont think we have been solely chasing the game. If our players are running at distance for the team this can only be a good thing. Our time will come. OTBC! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
