After last weekend debacle I'm not confident of a trip to Norwich (and can't be bothered to go really, need to save some cash), we looked flat and uninspired despite being the better side for 92 of the 96 mins last week (as well as having all the possession and chances).

Worried feeling Norwich will do the same to us though I don't rate bechio or holt at all so hopefully it's not as dreadful....
 
Really need to beat Norwich yet I have absolutely no confidence in Pochettino (I don't have an issue with MP I just feel that he's the wrong appointment). It still irks me that Adkins was sacked.
Have a feeling that Norwich will play with as many men behind the ball and play us on the counter. Also, Lambert does not suit out current system under MP and with rumours of Spiderman injured I can only see a Norwich victory.
2-1 Norwich.
 
Haven't beat Spurs since Rafa's last year, don't expect that to change.

Spurs were cowardly last year at anfield and came for the 0-0, I expect more of the same but pass to Ronaldo every time they get the ball and for us to not score countless chances.

Ah I'm over Adkins now as in theory the new stuff should work better. We just need a plan for 10 men behind the ball.

Only think Norwich lacked in that sort of play is individual quality really, Remy last week was better than expected but I can't see holt or Bechieo being that useful...

I have hopes on a better result me a general hope that Liverpool will play out from the back next week making that winnable.
 
On the long journey up to Carlisle at the moment. My old man has been approached to be the clubs stand-in official photographer, but is covering the Development Squad today against Ipswich. This could be a long, lonely and cold trip! We equalised in the last minute in the corresponding game last season so I'm hoping for something to celebrate in a few hours time :)

QPR/Sunderland should be good but probably be bore draw now :p

We should beat Stoke but we tend to play poorly when we should win :p
 
Come on Sunderland!

Also Boric best keeper in the league now he's getting into his stride (should have signed him up 6 months earlier to get him fit)
 
TV refing needed so badly.

We just got away with pulling Holt in the box (clear pen) but Holt is on a yellow and can't do simulation then Lallana gets a hand ball given against him for the ball being fired at him :( (then booked for protesting)

So many weird and poor decisions this half.
