Our player of the month: December

Norwich City had a fairly mixed December, with three wins, two draws and a defeat across the festive period.

The Canaries beat Rotherham, Bolton and Blackburn, were held by Bristol City and Nottingham Forest and lost to Derby.

Each month we pick the best of the bunch from City’s stars during the month and announce our player of the month.

There were plenty of candidates this month, with Tim Krul, Teemu Pukki, Max Aarons, Ben Godfrey and Marco Stiepermann all impressing this month.

However, our Norwich player of the month is… Mario Vrancic!

The Bosnian was first drafted into the starting line-up after Mo Leitner picked up an injury and has been excellent ever since.

Over the month of December, Vrancic managed two goals, one assist, and two man of the match performances.

Not only was he the standout in some games, but he was consistently good throughout the month.

He has been excellent at breaking up play in his own half with some crunching tackles, as well as dictating the tempo of the game and creating chances with his superb vision and range of passing.
