30 mins and fairly even BUT Hama is being turned far too easily, so I cannot believe they have not noticed.... If only we were not trying so hard with our passes and overdoing many.
Looking at the performances in the first half, Ball & Carroll are more restrained (possibly under instructions to keep a shape), but Dickie is playing the ball well out of defence, and Chair & Dykes are combining well, plus running their socks off. We just need to get more quality on the crosses (which is I am sure a confidence thing) and we will score; although Northwesthoop is right that Norwich look as if they have another gear and better subs available.
Solid looking first half and it looks as though we are set up in a containing 5-4-1 and are happy with 0 - 0.
I think playing BOS is a sensible decision but isnt Warburton contradicting himself when saying that he won't play anyone who won't commit themself to the club. He wouldnt play Manning or Lumley but he does play BOS,
56 mins and you know we are doing well when the ref has to go over to their bench to stop the verbal torrents at the 4th official.
61 mins and Hamalainen joins the 'gratuitous and needless fouls' section of the team. We must close down players - not provide dead ball opportunities!

No way was that a penalty. Ball touched the ball and Canterwell dives! Pukki converts on 73 mins. Both those Norwich players have constantly moaning if anyone breaths even heavily nearby.
