I hope we score more goals than the other team.

Matt Jarvis can't play in this game, which I guess is why he started in the League Cup. 

Should imagine Olsson at left back, Brady left wing and Toffolo on the bench in case anything goes wrong?

A game I'd really like us to win, I hate Wet Spam and the porno twins with a passion, but its a tough old game for sure.

Looking forward to this. Have been to every West Ham - Norwich game for quite a few years but not able to make this one. Should be a good game though between 2 teams who have started well, and will both be looking to win the game. 

Team:

Ruddy
Wisdom Martin Bassong Olsson
Redmond Howson Tettey Brady
Hoolahan
Jerome​

Jarvis is obviously ineligible so naturally Brady will move up and Olsson will come in. Would like to see Hoolahan bought back in for this one, but it wouldn't overly surprise me if we went with 5 in the middle again. Also wouldn't mind seeing Lafferty on the bench, possibly at the expense of Grabban.

Don't know what the score will be here, but we're going to have to work hard to get a win considering the form West Ham are in. A draw I think would be a good result but I'll say we'll narrowly lose. 3-2 West Ham.

I wonder what Paul will do ?

I've just realised that this is the last time that Norwich will play at Upton Park / Boleyn Ground unless we draw them in the FA Cup. 

Never been to that ground so suddenly wish I was going today!

Probably. That or Brady keeps his position at the back and somebody else comes into midfield. Dunno if Olsson will be ready for 2 games in 4 days, the club do seem to take these things slowly nowadays. 

 

[Canaryboy]

Elliott Bennett on the right, Nathan Redmond on the left another possibility? 

Can't see Elliott Bennett getting a start though really, bench more likely. 

I really hope we don't see Lafferty on the left, I'm all for giving him a chance but he's had too many in that position. 

 

[Canaryboy]

I think Olsson will start, and if he begins to tire we'll just put Brady at left back later in the game.

A game I'd really like us to win, 

I feel that way about every game.

 

[KeiranShikari]

I think an added central player from the left is more likely than Beno starting really. 

 

[derehamyella]

what has Lafferty got to do, he has done more than Grabban , he has said he will fight for his place while Grabban tries to walk away.   sorry this is not the best AN has done

Grabban on the bench Lafferty nowhere to be seen .. 

 

[KeiranShikari]

I like Grabban more than Laffs. Good choice Alex Neil.

Not too surprised to see Redmond on the bench, thought we might fancy the extra man in the middle. Wes was a must.

1k posts.

 

[Canaryboy]

Keeping possession very well, Jerome should have done much better with that chance though. 

 

[Canaryboy]

I don't think this is the right game for Hoolahan, hasn't seen much of the ball, I'd like to see Redmond on at half time. 

 

[morty]

Oh well, I guess it shows the standards we are setting this season if we are slightly disappointed with a draw! Decent point in the grand scheme, West Ham are in good form.

A good point that most of us would of taken going in to the game, but very frustrating when you are leading with 90 seconds to go, and it's due to some sloppy keeping/defending that drops 2 points, still a decent point away from home, bring on Leicester!!
