Mark Bunn: Beaten three times inside his penalty area when the defence let him down. Made other standard saves. 5/10. Steven Whittaker: Right back was on the fringes of this one, but stopped Kacaniklic going down the outside. 5/10. Russell Martin: Injured by Kacaniklic's late challenge and it bothered him throughout. Far from his best display at centre half. 4.5/10. Sebastien Bassong: Dodgy defensive display from Canaries captain. Caught upfield for the second goal and sucked out by Dejagah for the first. 4/10. Javier Garrido: Kasami got in behind him in the build-up to Bent's goal, but an important defensive header at 2-0. 5/10. David Fox: Blocked a Kacaniklic effort at 1-0, but partly responsible for every goal conceded. On this evidence the midfielder should've stayed at Barnsley. 3/10. Bradley Johnson: Outshone by 30-something Karagounis in the middle of the park. Lashed a stoppage time effort way over. Must do better. 3.5/10. Robert Snodgrass: Crashed a sweet curling strike against the bar early on. Moved to the right flank after the break following a frustrating first half and twice drew saves from Stekelenburg from tight angles. As good as anyone in a Norwich shirt tonight. 6/10. Nathan Redmond: Brought a reaction stop out of Stekelenburg on two minutes and later fired wide. Subbed at half time by which time his influence had faded as Hughton wanted to put on a second striker. 4.5/10. Johan Elmander: Had a tame effort go straight at Stekelenburg and just laboured up top until he was subbed. Another that needs to buck up. 3.5/10. Josh Murphy: Youngster was industrious and played in Redmond for his early chance. Once the goals went in it's difficult for bright prospects being left down by their defensive colleagues. 5.5/10. Subs: Ricky van Wolfswinkel: Cannot buy a goal. Brought one block out of Hangeland. 4/10. Luciano Becchio: Anonymous display from the Argentine. 3/10. Who was your man of the match?
