Lambert nicked the point with tactics at the death

He put 3 up top for the last 10 minutes and we got caught. Thought Jones may have reacted and thrown Drinkwater on in place of Parkin for 5 in midfield and stick to Hoolahan like glue. If we could have nullified Hoolahan it would have been a different result.

100% agreed. Changes needed to be made especially with three up top for them. Naylor and Hudson were surely knackered near the end and an extra body in midfield would have gone a long way to ensuring the win. Hope Drinkwater plays a bit more as I think he's a bit underrated to be honest.

Very good point, why does DJ never change things when we are being overun.

Nulify Hoolihan for the last ten minutes and we probably would have hung on.

Other managers would have used up more substitutions to help slow the game down and break up the Norwich play. Mr Jones is clueless.
