You have to really look hard but...

For all the calls saying the problem is our goal scoring, we are still the second top scorers in the league, and defensively the goals conceded is also fairly good. KmK teams do like to share the goals around rather than one player be banging them in left right and centre.

The issue tonight, our subs had little impact while Oxford's did influence the game

Aside from losing there's no one else i'd want to see get 3 points than Oxford, that really is a bad result for Norwich.

The desperate search for positives sometimes I think is somewhere between delusion and coping.

Let’s be honest our high average of goals came in isolated games where teams fell apart. We averaged a goal a game this week against three teams that were all missing their most influential player(s). Two goals in the last 4 home games isn’t it?

We are not clinical enough in tight games when it matters and tonight mistakes crept back in. Who cares about Norwich, they’re awful, we need to focus on ourselves getting out of this league and right now top two feels a stretch if we can’t figure these things out.

I'll keep it short and sweet this time rather than repeat myself, but outside of the 4 games we've scored 3 or more in:

13 games played
15 points
13 goals
15 conceded
-2 goal difference.

Don't think it's delusion - we are nowhere near ready for the Prem, and really no one other than Coventry are anywhere near ready

I agree about tight games, when we go a goal down i never feel we can come back and win. Tonight was as good a chance to do that than any other given we equalised so early in the second half and should have kicked on - but as I said their subs made the difference that we usually expect ours to make.

Sunderland were no way near ready for the Prem just this past spring. You need to get promoted and get people in who know how to run a recruitment department. You can’t waste a parachute season, we will be much further behind in a few years.

Last time we lost 2-1 away at Oxford, we ended up having a good season? Very much clutching.
