Wow! Rode the waves of City attacks. Some great performances, again, right through the team.

Uh oh free kick from deep...

Great Salisu challenge!

Oh give me strength VAR.

No kidding.no pen. They certainly tried their best to find something.

Oh get a grip VAR

Yups nice to see some left back giving afters, keeping up the Benali/Dennis tradition. Watered down to today's rules anyway.

Nooooooes!!!!

Hoping this is a tactical physio on and nothing more. Yay, back on

And nearly again. Never afoul on the keeper.

Oooooh nearly Broja. Good Armstrong pass.

I get the feeling he's following instructions there to keep the ball in certain areas to maintain shape. Unfortunately, a couple of times when relieving the pressure with an easier forward ball might have been the better option. also think Perraud looked a little knackered at the end,clearing to him being conservative. Crumbs. Two Redmond posts in a row from me. #Redmondfanclub

Redmond did some good covering for Perraud and ran in swiftly to put off a City shot. So plenty of pluses in there for sure. Did he get an assist too?

Whew! Happy to hear the whistle. Cracking team performance.

Crumbs, the government have worked bloomin' hard to ensure that tannoy announcements in trains have been reduced and now this?! They can't get a break. You lot were mean to Salmon on that other thread, while I made sure to get a place in his rich pal's survival rocket into space. #whenworldscollide

The thread I think of whenever a team gets a couple of wins to pull themselves out of the relegation zone. Just the thing to get a bit of perspective, and shake off any stray gloomy thoughts. Thanks Minsk, and I hope you're getting better.

Watford looked far more likely in the first half. But didn't really create much. There was a João Pedro shot, when King was in the middle in a far better position. The two had a bit of shouting between them, and that was that for them. One Norwich goal was a super finish by Sargent when the pass was behind him, the second Watford were in a slump for and the third was an own goal. Neither team looked that good.

Watford looked to have given up after the first goal. Even then, Norwich gave them a hand late on when Gunn had a mix up with a defender and Watford had one disallowed. I like Norwich, and it would be lovely to see Alex Crook have to make grovelling apology after his comments about them, should they stay up. I think teams around them have games in hand, so getting out of the bottom 3 might be short lived.

Just wait until Sport Republic buys a MLS franchise, when I can show off my Raymond Chandler knowledge.

The authenticity of the Turin Shroud is in doubt, but the Holy Bedsheet of Saviour Boris will be a relic when he replaces Little Baby Jesus in our hearts.

No wonder he looks tired in that second pic: vaccine designer and distributor; zillionaire philanthropist to the needy and excellent host at numerous parties. Wattaguy.

Now I'm only moaning about Christmas, because after reading that, surely it's time to punt Little Baby Jesus and replace him with Boris the Saviour.

That really should have allowed multiples to be selected, or ranked. So many to choose from.
