Massive 3 points again. Three games to go, F***ing 5 clear, unbelievable
Made up.
But that was closer than I expected today. When we went 2 up, thought we'd just pull away and score a few more. But fair play to Norwich, they stuck at it and never gave up, as you'd expect with were they are in the table. Allen did well today, Lucas did OK too - but we missed Hendo and Studge's purposefulness (is that a word!?) going forward. If Sterling had not been on incredible form (by far and away the clear MOTM) don't think we'd have got the win. The lad was immense, a screamer, assist, 2nd by deflection, and generally excellent all day.
We're stretched thin subs wise - get nervous when Moses has to come on, though bringing Agger on was a good move to combat the balls that were getting launched into the area towards the end. BR hasn't much to work with when things get tight, as they did today - so fantastic again from the manager to navigate us through that to another 3 points. Jonno had a ropey enough game, and Migs will need to work on clearing/dominating on crosses in the summer, but we had just enough today.
Chavs next. And after seeing their last game, and the fact that they have CL coming, again confident that we can do them at home. Bit worried about our lack of options on the bench, but as long as one of Luis, or Sterling, or SG, or Couts, or whoever, continue to pop up when needed with big performances, think we can stick it to them at Anfield. Maureen is no fool (though he is a F***ing annoying little dweeboid) so expect some twists and turns, but we will be up for this, and reckon we can stretch the winning run. And 12th man are huge help.
We're so close now, it would be gut-wrenching to let it go. Definitely in the driving seat. The lads will regroup and get strong for Sunday. 3rd last game, let's leave every ounce of effort on the field. Roll out our attacking game, approach it in the same way, and we can notch up another win...
