Norwich Starting XI: Ruddy; E Bennett, Martin (c), Turner, Olsson; Johnson; Howson, Surman; Hoolahan; Lafferty, Hooper.

Quite like the look of that. Bennett and Olsson at full back to provide width, compensating for the diamond midfield. Surman in the role he made his own the last time he was with us in the championship.
 
Nice one DC that looks like a pretty strong starting 11, i hope we get a goalfest tonight it seems ages since we gave someone a good pasting .

Pretty exciting team, diamond, pacey attacking full backs. Little and large strikers. I assume Howson us playing right side of the diamond. I like it all to be honest.
 
Best part is we could, and probably will, play a different but similarly strong XI of the players not starting.

Thought RvW was getting a crack tonight?

Presumably second half with Grabban? Would like to see us try a 4-3-3 second half, just for a bit of variety.

Sam Habergham, one of our academy products, starts for Braintree tonight. Used to wipe the floor with me at table tennis.
 
I reckon the second hale will look more like a flat 4-4-2 with RvW and Grabban up front with Pilks/Murphy and Redmond on the wings.
 
Goinf well by the look of things, good to see Lafferty scoring a free kick as deadfall situations could have suffered after losing Snoddy
 
Second half line-up

Bunn; Whittaker, R Bennett, Turner, Garrido; Redmond, Howson, Johnson, Josh Murphy; Grabban, van Wolfswinkel.
