    Saturday's game v Stoke brings together two teams who both owe Cardiff City a debt of gratitude. In both cases, the aftermath of the away fixture at Cardiff was a team meeting on the theme "we can't go on doing what we've been doing up to now". Realisation dawned on the Potters after defeat by Cardiff saw them drop into the relegation zone; for Norwich it was coming away with three points courtesey of two late goals, having been staring defeat in the face for most of the game. As Jack Stacey later put it, continuing to concede two goals a game was not going to get Norwich into the top six. Stoke City captain Josh Laurent gives his account of the Potters's metamorphosis today on the BBC website: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68554772

    You really do stretch to produce a coherent arguments for unfolding events Robbie. This conjecture is so unlikely as to be labelled fantasy.

    With 6 games left(7 for the others), this is how it looks with top 10 teams in italics:

    Norwich: Ipswich(h), Sheffield Weds(a), Preston(a), Bristol City(h), Swansea(h), Birmingham(a)

    Coventry: Leeds(h), Southampton(a), Birmingham(a), Man Utd(cup), Hull(h), Blackburn(a), Ipswich(h), QPR(h)

    Preston: Watford(a), Huddersfield(h), Norwich(h), Southampton(a), QPR(a) Leicester(h), West Brom(a)

    Hull: Cardiff(a), Boro(h) QPR(h), Watford(a), Coventry(a), Ipswich(h), Plymouth(a)

    We have 2 top ten games left, Coventry has 4 plus a cup game, Preston has 4 and Hull has 3.

    I would be more confident if our away form wasn't so poor (currently 20th over last 6 matches). Top six is in our own hands, but performances away from Carrow Road are crucial to it staying that way.

    What happened to Placheta? There was some rumours about a return to Poland. Did this go ahead?

    With injuries to Sorenson, Hanley, Giannoulis, Hernandez and Rowe, will this hamper the results of our games to the end of the season? Have we any updated information on these injured players?

    Wagner said Sørensen was 10-14 days from recovery at the presser last week. Hanley is nearing the end of his recovery program. Giannoulis may be fit again by the end of this month. Hernandez is out for the rest of the season but Rowe is nearing fitness again, possibly at the weekend.

    That's correct. He signed for Swansea in January, for the rest of the current season. He will be a free agent thereafter.
