MOTM performance in Norwich's 1-0 win away to Luton Town the other night. There was a nice moment after the game, with Duffy hugging and chatting with a dejected Mark McGuinness. Not sure if they've been in squads together before, but good to see some togetherness among the Irish lads.

In the end, the loophole they found involved Ajax billing Barca for "agricultural machinery".
