I like the fact that you can tell the MOTD highlights commentary is recorded live and not dubbed over when the result is known. So with this one the commentator at the start was talking about how ManU needed a "handbrake-off" thumping win and clearly expecting they'd get one over us. His astonishment at the second goal was priceless.
We had the same thing against Arsenal when they took the lead, and on a blustery day the commentator said with relish that it "could be an ill-wind for Norwich". It was nice when he had to eat his words later and he did acknowledge towards the end we easily could have won it.
So, 6 games with only one where we've conceded more than 1 goal. Typical that it was against Watford though. Still, it was one of those goals at the death which don't mean much. And who'd have predicted that none of Chelsea, Arsenal, Everton and ManU would be able to score more than one against us ?
