Norwich City dropped more valuable points over the weekend as they lost 2-1 to Wolves at Carrow Road.
The Canaries have gone 1-0 up in four of their last five games, yet only managed to pick up two points – a terrible return.
Todd Cantwell handed City the lead with a fine finish, before Wolves scored two goals from two crosses in the second-half.

READ NORWICH VERDICT
All throughout last season in the Championship Norwich struggled defensively, especially from set-pieces. The Canaries blitzed the Championship with their goals, but the step up to the Premier League was always going to be a huge one – yet it seems as though the club, and perhaps some fans, did not expect it to be.
There was little done to strengthen in attack and nothing done to strengthen the defence, which has led to Norwich failing to put away chances they create and then conceding far too many goals at the other end. Beyond Teemu Pukki and Todd Cantwell, there are no goalscorers in the entire squad at this level and there is nowhere near enough quality in the back four.
