But I think most observers would not expect Man City to do any better than upper mid-table.
If you're not in the Champions League you can't buy the very best. We're in League One so expect to see League One-ish players.
Yes, agreed, except I'd say second goal was as much Davis' fault as the midfield's.
Haven't checked the match stats but can't really remember Davis having a save to make so the defence must've been doing something right.
People shouldn't confuse Norwich having lots of possession with the back four playing badly.
Dunno. Will wait until I've seen him play a bit more.
Probably neither given that:

What did those who saw the game think?
Certainly it suited Lallana and Connolly was able to link with him really well. We looked dangerous.
On the other hand, we probably defended too narrowly.
Thought it was quite a brave call by Pards but was surprised we didn't change to a 4-5-1 later.
Exactly (and some missed chances first half). There was nothing inherently wrong with the defence today. KD didn't really have a save to make, goals aside, despite their possession.
