Norwich City will look to bounce back from a disappointing defeat at Queens Park Rangers when they visit Portsmouth in the Championship on Tuesday (19:45 GMT).

Head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup spoke to the media on Monday before the game, and here are some of the key points from his news conference:

  • On the loss at QPR: "I asked for thoughts from players rather than just me talking. I think the feeling is that we are a good football team. We need to earn our right to play the way we want to."

  • Thorup continued: "We are still a team and a squad in the making, we do not expect to be perfect. I believe so much in the strategy we have and we keep on building."

  • The head coach said Kellen Fisher playing at left-back at QPR "didn't work" but went on to mention the game at West Brom in which, in his opinion, Fisher had a good game in that position.
