Was a piece of magical skill from him. The transformation in form is unbelievable.

Surely he deserves for his name to now be imprinted into that song.We have a good squad.....on paper. We didn't have a nightmare transfer window, it was on the whole pretty good I thought just didn't address the GLARING midfield issue.
I can't remember what that was now ......
Pretty clear Wilder saw his ar*e, didn't like our recruitment model, spat his dummy out when he couldn't get his players. This transferred to the team and we were ......sh*t. And that fooking failing 3-5-2
Carrick has identified weaknesses, plugged these gaps, changed the system to suit the players we have and we now look like a proper football team. Far from perfect, big work in progress, but haven't been this excited about our current situation since Karankas promotion team.
Chuba.....I'll hold my hands up and admit I'd written him off and was not bothered in the slightest if he was shipped out in the summer. Transformation approaching the Zenden LW to CM move.
Great stuff

I loved the way the 3 Norwich players were just stood there gobsmacked while Akpom had the presence of mind to be off wide to support Jones and deliver that pin-point cross for Crooks.

Watched a dodgy stream of it, like above all their defence where into immediate meltdown after the goal looking at each other wondering wtf had just happened.

On 2nd viewing I've just noticed the great movement of Crooks who was out wide near Gibson and doubles back to get on the end of the cross. Also notice Smith shouting for handball when the ball hits Akpom's shoulder. When the ball hits the net Jones doesn't know whether to congratulate Crooks or Akpom but opts for the latter.

Vidukaesque???? Thought you meant having a worldie season when you are out of contract in the summer!Fantastic bit of skill - VidukaesqueHe’s reinvented himself, should have buried that header though. Think we’ll forgive him after that bit of magic though

There's only one Chuba Akpom, one Chuba Akpom, first he was $hite, then he's alright, walking in a Akpom wonderlandTransformation approaching the Zenden LW to CM move.
Great stuff
Same, he’s been brilliant lately. He’s like a completely different player. Long may it continue.

The way Carrick's arms drops to his knees after seeing that piece of skill and then Jones bursting through. 
Unbelievable bit of skill that. That and the volley from McGree are the bits of magic we've been missing to turn losses and draws into wins over the last few years.
I'm more excited about this side than I have been for a long time.
