    No, no, not at all..... But, I'll take this [rather unexpected] result as a nice bonus

    I haven't watched the game... So where did it go wrong for City? Unknown quantity perhaps, given that you hadn't played Norwich before? Pukki will score (and create) plenty this season, mark my words!

    Internationals is where is went wrong.
    If I were paranoid I would claim that both UEFA and FIFA were conspiring against us.
    Thankfully I'm not paranoid about it.
    Nicholas Otamendi was directly to blame for the 3rd Norwich goal. That he'd had to fly in from LA after a fucking friendly has nothing to do with it!
    Kyle Walker not being awake and just standing still didn't help either, 'cos the 2nd goal would have been offside if he had.

    Well done Norwich City.

    What can I say?

    It's a setback but it's early days.

    Sure, City will bounce back. Liverpool are still to have their first crisis, but as said earlier its a funny old game

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    Indeed, and I'll be rooting for you midweek agains Shakhtar, as I will all the British (and particularly Scottish) teams playing in Europe!

    Dr Two Bricks?

    That one's flown past me... Care to elucidate? Do you mean you've had a wee snip-ette?

    Good summary of the Norwich game yesterday, and two interesting interviews here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49703750

    Farke: "We had a special plan and it worked".... Indeed! I like his style, and he certainly talks a good game.

    Could two Germans combine to scupper City from taking the title this year? We'll see!

    This result has certainly sparked my interest in Norwich City games now even more....

    Marco.
