West Brom 0-1 Norwich: Five things we learned

Norwich finally ended a run of 11 matches without a win yesterday as the beat West Brom 1-0 away at The Hawthorns.

It wasn’t the most free-flowing, attacking match you will ever have seen, but it was certainly vital for Norwich. It doesn’t matter how you win, as long as you win and that is just what Norwich did.

The Canaries were impressive, maybe not in an attacking sense per say, but defensively they were almost flawless. The back four of Russell Martin, Timm Klose, Sebastien Bassong and Martin Olsson were superb.

There were worries about the defence due to the absence of Ryan Bennett through injury, but they prevailed nonetheless. Alex Neil is actually going to have a selection dilemma at the back against Newcastle and for good reasons for once!

So, plenty of positives came from the win yesterday and I have picked out five things we learned from the match!
