Because of course Jerome is the best centre-forward in the Championship. Defenders just can't handle him.
Or so the Narch manager said.
Stockdale 8 two saves as far as I can remember not much else to do
Bruno 9 good game Mr consistent
Bong 9 getting better all the time
Dunk 9 very good partnership with Duffy the best defence in the top four English leagues says it all
Duffy 9 think this was his best game for us so far
Knockaert 8 quiet game by his standards very well taken goal and a few mazy runs but should have passed to Murry
Skalak 9 another player getting better and better a real team player to great assists
Sidwell 9 best game of the season so far
Stephens 9 good game bringing the best out of Sidwell
Baldock 9 works so hard another team player almost a team of team players
Murray 10 MOM hat trick does not to begin to describe his contribution today if we had had him January last year We would be a Premership team right now

Hemed 8 made the last goal
Norwood 7 not on very long

Murray is a different class, makes things look so simple. Don't think any of our other strikers would have scored what he did today. He reads the game do well

Sidwell 9 Brilliant
Stephens 8. So much better
Skalak 8
Murray 10
Baldock 7 Worked his socks off
Hemed 8. I know the game was all but over but he looked like the rest has done him good.

Norwich looked a good side for 60 minutes up until the final third. Did they ever look like scoring?

Stevens 7 Good
Skalak 7 Two great assist but did very little apart
Murray 9 Nothing less for hatrick
Baldock 6 Contributed very little as provider and never looked like scoring
Knockhaert 7 poor game apart from his last 15mins
Fantastic to come back from very poor first half. All credit to defence during this period when we had very little of ball.

Today was the best I have yet seen from 3 players, Duffy, Sidwell and Murray, in no particular order, they were all absolutely magnificent.
Everyone else did their job very well, no doubt about it.
The plaudits for this have to go to Hughton. He managed half of the NCFC team at Norwich, he knows those players well, he did his homework, he set it up superbly, and when he could see they had fallen apart on the hour he kept encouraging us forward to go for the major kill, which is not normally his style. He really did earn almost a years worth of salary just on today's game, well done sir.

Stockdale 7.5 - Did all he had to do. One good save, a good punch in the first half and decent kicking
Bruno 7.5 - Solid. Not as involved in attack as in other games but did his job well
Duffy 9 - Blocked any threat from Norwich and won everything in the air. What a signing
Dunk 9 - Great partnership with Duffy and great to see him get a goal. What a season he's having
Bong 9 - Defended very well and a fantastic pass to setup the crucial second goal. Looks a different player to the start of the season
Knockaert 8.5 - Not as brilliant as he can be but one great run in the second half and took his goal well. Also caused the errors for the fourth goal so pretty good by most standards
Stephens 8.5 - Good to see him back in the team. Very solid performance
Sidwell 9 - Superb performance. Looks a superb signing and made so many key interceptions
Skalak 9.5 - Three assists says it all. Very involved in the game and great link up with Bong
Murray 10 - Three great goals. Great closing down for the first goal, initial interception and then great header for the second and then good finish for his third. Nine goals already is a very good return
Baldock 8.5 - Worked very hard and created space for others. He's turned his season around after a slow start
Substitutes:
Hemed 7.5 - Decent cameo performance. Was never going to match Murray but did well
Norwood/Murphy - Not enough time to mark them
Manager
Hughton 10 - As others have said, he got it completely right today. Solid display first half and then brilliant attacking performance in the second.
Bruno 7.5 - Solid. Not as involved in attack as in other games but did his job well
Duffy 9 - Blocked any threat from Norwich and won everything in the air. What a signing
Dunk 9 - Great partnership with Duffy and great to see him get a goal. What a season he's having

Stockdale 8 - Solid game - did everything well
Bruno 8.5 - Not one of his outstanding performances, but part of a back 4 that limited a free-scoring team to a couple of long shots
Duffy 9 - He's a monster isn't he? - as above a great performance from the back 4.
Dunk 9 - Nice to see Lewis on the score-sheet
Bong 9.5 - Superb in defence and attack. Back to his best.
Knockaert 9 - Superb as ever, glad he was just one of several excellent performances, as I have started to worry about what we will do after that fifth yellow.
Sidwell 9.5 - Absolutely brilliant today. We needed his experience and he marshalled everything. Not missing Kayal at all yet.
Stephens 8 - Glad to have him starting again and good to see that he can play with Sidwell.
Skalak 9.5 - 3 assists - full of energy - I love what he brings to the team.
Murray 9.5 - 9 goals this season - My first Amex hat-trick - To think there were many who thought he shouldn't come back. Bonkers
Baldock 8 - One of those games where I didn't really notice him too often.
