Dean Smith made two changes to his starting eleven in this afternoon’s 3-0 win over Coventry City at Carrow Road.
He spoke to canaries.co.uk following the win and said: “First half it was an excellent performance, the passing and the movement, trying to drag them around the pitch to create space was really good.
“We scored two good goals and could’ve scored more. That was the only disappointing part of it going into half time, not being three or four in the lead.
“Second half I thought we dropped our standards. We did enough.
“The good thing is, I’ve just said in the dressing room, we made substitutions at 2-0 up and I thought they lifted us, the last ten-15 minutes we’ve created a number of opportunities which we probably should have scored as well.
“It was good that Dowell has come on and got a goal, so I’m really pleased with the result.
Teemu Pukki started today’s Sky Bet Championship fixture, scoring the first goal of the match after 14 minutes.
“I’m really pleased that Teemu has got off the mark, I thought his performances off the bench had warranted him the start.
“I thought Josh Sargent was a real goal-scoring threat as well and that is really important for us, that were chipping in from everyone.”
Aaron Ramsey also found himself in the starting 11, and the head coach was pleased with his performance.
Dean Smith said: “I thought AJ was excellent in the ten position today. Some of his movement and his flicks and his vision was excellent. It’s important we get goals from all across the pitch.
“Ramsey is starting to get to grips with life in the Championship and has settled in really well, which I would expect because he’s such a good, lovely lad.
“He understands the game, he’s a clever footballer, especially today, you could see that in the first half.
“Two games in three or four days probably took its toll. I thought he got a little bit loose in the second half, so I had to make a few changes, but he can be really pleased with himself.”
