Douglas taking a page from the Doherty school of blocking crosses, luckily our CBs are alive to it and head it behind. Ruddy claims the ensuing corner.

Pretty open game so far front 3 linking really well.

It was a difficult attempt, wide angle and pretty far out, tried to chip Bunn and it didn't come off.

Commentary saying that his standing foot appeared to slip as he shot - no idea if true as they are not noted for accuracy

 

[Siggy]

Leo has been awesome so far strong and beautiful touches.

I was looking at the keeper tbh but given the trajectory of the shot that could well have been the case.

We're playing too fast at the moment for me, trying to get in after 5 passes, need Ruben to slow things down a bit and create space with the ball rather than endless one-twos.

As I say this we win the ball in midfield, good triangle passing across the field to switch play, Cav puts in a good ball which is deflected out to Jota whose shot is blocked and Norwich clear.

They haven't won at home since December....

Leo shot blocked off again by Klose after Jota drives forward and puts Leo in & clear

 

[Alan]

Seems we've started putting a man on the post on set pieces. Personally like that.

Jota and Bonatini work their way through the Norwich defense for the third or fourth time with those one-twos I mentioned earlier, but a Norwich defender hurls himself at Bonatini's shot and it's away.

Meanwhile, Chelsea are 2-0 down to our mascot mates in Italy.

Not even been in the lead in a home game for about 320 days. Truly shocking. Even we weren't that bad through 2012.

Cav booked after catching Murphy as Neves loses possession

 

[Alan]

Yellow for Cav for... something.

I dislike this ref far more than Steve Martin at the moment.

 

[Carrotdude]

Sounds like we’ve had quite a few decent efforts blocked by Norwich. I’d very much like a second goal!

Hearing the name "Darren England" can only make me think of some kind of Al Murray-esque Brexit parody character.

 

[Alan]

This ref can fuck right off. I mean, right off.

 

[AndyWolves]

This ref can $#@! right off. I mean, right off.

What happened?

Nuno needs to take our front three to task at half time. They're playing as if they're the only Wolves on the pitch, no interest in bringing the rest of the team up the field and it's stretching play to hell. They're creating chances but they aren't particularly good chances and we'd be far better served trying to pull Norwich apart than just dribble around them.

It's really frustrating to watch.

So you're saying we only need 3 players to get passed the Norwich defence?

I'll have to see a replay but from the camera it looked like Klose just shoved his elbow into Jota's face when Jota was through on goal. I don't think it was malicious but I would swear it was a foul and it was certainly worse than most of the dinky fouls he's given against us.
