Less said about the 2nd half the better, hung in there well and showed determination, but you can see what happens if you switch off and start to coast.

I think this game highlighted the fact that Mikel's resurgence is just a mirage. He was terrible.

On the plus side, one more point and we're on 40.

Safe from relegation!

Phew.

Only 5pts behind United!

Glad we won but what should have been a fairly straightforward game turned into a back to the walls performance. I was really looking forward to seeing Pato as well.

Spot on Remodez. We made it harder for ourselves. Glad we came through in the end, was actually looking to see Pato also.

Wow you guys are never satisfied we got 3 points which would have been a loss 4 months ago relax and enjoy the ride

He's disrespected because I said he is an assistant manager which he actually is?. Your use of the victim card is not up to standard, try harder.

 

No cards, I simply think you're a bit rude. Might not be intentional so I'll leave it at that.

lackluster 2nd half.

Bloody Leicester didn't win

Sky enhanced Acca? To make it worse they missed a sitter in the 90th

Rude rude rude. Not going through this again...

Only 5pts behind United!

Would give me so much satisfaction to see the look on my United fan mates after we overtake them. Cant stand van gaal and his sh*te club

Happy with the 3 points and our 3rd win in a row, but I don't really like the performance. If Norwich had more luck and better striker, they could draw or even win this game. 

 

I also unhappy with some Guss's decisions, I think Traore was better than Hazard today and didn't deserve to get off. Loftus-Cheek could be a better option than Mikel, we went too much defensively and invited all the counter attacks, we had to play normal football, attack and defend, not only defend.

 

Anyways, let's hope our form will only rise and improve, well done!

I think that's where the difference is between some people and others. For some, the 3 points is all important and that's fine. Europa League is still possible and winning games is what football about, performance is secondary.

 

For others, it's the future that's important and that means blooding players for next season. Of course a balance is the ideal thing to strike and it's debatable whether Hiddink managed that today, or in previous weeks.

 

It just comes down to priorities.

Phew! 3 wins on the bounce in the league now got a bit nervy towards the end!

Two straight road trips with back to back wins?. Highly welcomed. Hope we batter Stoke this weekend.

Not gonna complain with gus's subs too much. Traore didn't touch the ball for 15 minutes in the second half, and kenedy was looking vulnerable defensively.

That isn't a knock on the 2 youngsters, most of the other players were abysmal second half.

Gus could see the result slipping and tried to rectify with strong subs. Baba did well, but mikel and willian were poor.

Why do we waste so many counter attacks, with either sloppy passes, or just checking back and keeping possession. It annoys me immensely!!

Said it would be close.Sides at the bottom wont lay down.Good 3 points.Excellent climb up the table under Guus.....UP THE CHELS !

Use your ignore button.

What happened there in the second half? Norwich were all over us and Redmond looked like Messi

Some of these posts are hillarious. So because he doesnt shoot he has a sh*t attitude? He is clearly not in form and is just looking for a pass. Some of you seriously need to get a grip

Really? He hasn't been on form all season, nor he shows any desire or put any effort, I don't mind poor form all players go through that, but to me Hazard doesn't seem interested at all to play. Diego was going through bad form but at least you can see he was trying.  Sorry but I don;t see this with Hazard and I am sure i am not the only one

What happened there in the second half? Norwich were all over us and Redmond looked like Messi I think we suffer too much when we play against very physical teams that run like maniacs. But we got the 3 points and I hope we play like the first half for the 90 minutes this Saturday against Stoke.

 

The thing is they didn't do that in the first half. They stood off us until we got 40 yards out then pressed.

 

When they pushed up and pressed they really caused us problems. Every single person here knows that's how you get to us so why Neil didn't do that from the start I don't know.

Well done lads now onto Stoke Saturday, we owe this lot for earlier this season so hopefully we saved the battering for them.

player of the season curse maybe

Not sure what you've got too complain about tonight. kenedy and traore got 60 mins, baba got 30. Is that not blooding youngsters for next season?

I think gus got it just about right in the end. Some youngsters got a good run out, and we picked up 3 points on the road.
