Interesting article about Swansea vs Norwich - on a couple of levels.

1. We play a similar style to Swansea - and it tells how Norwich countered it - in a way that we sometimes see teams do at the Amex.
2. Part of it was how Elliott Bennett was switched fom wide to the link between midfield and strikers (how Gus must miss Elliott)

Since the start of the season we seem to have become a bit more pragmatic about how we play the game. At points early this season it seemed like a point of principle what we would always play it on the deck from defence. Now we do seem to mix it up a bit - and are playing the better for it.

Also Gus says we always play the same way (home or away) but this is not the whole truth as he has made it clear that once we have sussed out how the opposition are playing we change to counter it (not that it is clear to me).

Our style is quiet diffrent to swansea as they move forward much faster,i guess we have more composure and we don't get caught out to often at the back.

Which tictac is best? green, white or orange?

Interesting article. It's a shame there's not more decent football analysis rather than the usual banal clichés- I'm looking at you MOTD.

Good to hear that Bennett's doing well. I think his best position is at the top of a midfield diamond; this ensures he sees more of the ball and can do more damage. On the other hand, seeing him flourish in the Prem revives the feeling that we were robbed! Did we agree a sell on clause?
