Norwich City picked up a valuable point today as they drew 1-1 with Arsenal at Carrow Road.
A goal from Canary outcast Lewis Grabban cancelled out Mesut Ozil’s opener for Arsenal, but Alex Neil’s men could easily have won the game as they had plenty of chances to make it 2-1. If it were not for a world-class Petr Cech save and Wes Hoolahan missing a sitter; Norwich would have won the match.
Alex Neil confused a lot of fans before the game in dropping their player of the month for October in Dieumerci Mbokani for arguably some of the fans least favourite player, Lewis Grabban. However, Grabban scored and was decent throughout the game.
There were plenty of promising performances from the match and here is what Twitter had to say on the Norwich match.
Here is what Joey had to say.

Many saying Brady has been a bargain.
Robbie Brady has proven to be an absolute bargain. He was out of this world today

Rhodri questioning Grabban’s contribution.
@ReadNorwich just about to question whether Grabban was still on the pitch!?! Yep there he is!!!!

Cam saying it was team performance.
I wouldn’t go as far as saying ‘Grabban won the point’ either. A solid TEAM performance.

He also had his say on Grabban.
Let’s not forget Grabban hadn’t scored since March until today. Too much overhype!
