Terrible start, brilliant phase of 20 minutes and then comfortable. Nice to have an easy victory.

What a twenty minutes. They need to show that video over and over and just practice doing that. Out of character in the extreme, but most welcome.

What a delightfully boring second half.

Really happy with that, the only negative for me is that he didn't give Robinson his league debut, 4-1 and very comfortable should be about as good as time as you could imagine to give a kid 10-15 minutes.

Weird game, really.
A purple patch encased in shite, really.

Great to see Benteke infused with confidence and the defence getting better after that first 15 minutes.

Dreadful first 20 minutes, then a spark of genius that kicked off a wonderful passage of attacking play.  Totally professional defensive performance in the second half; Norwich didn't get a sniff.

Exactly the result we needed with some tougher looking games coming up.  A very very good day.

Result is everything. Up to Lambert to get some consistent performances now - I cant see it myself but that's for another week.

Won the game in a crazy 20 mins or so. The rest of the 70 was the normal standard of football, garbage.

Would have been good to pile a few in 2nd half, however top result. 11th.  Fulham and Cardiff look like dead men walking.  1 more win and we are home and dry.
