Norwich City are back on the road this weekend when they make the long trip to Sunderland in the Championship on Saturday (15:00 GMT).

Head coach Johannes Hoff Thorup spoke to the media on Wednesday - here are some of the key points from his news conference.

  • Goalkeeper Angus Gunn could face a suspension following a charge of misconduct during the QPR defeat earlier this month. The club are preparing a response to the charge.

  • Jacob Sorensen likely to be back after a minor injury - he'll be tested fully before the weekend.

  • "Fine margins" made the difference in the defeat to Burnley on Sunday.

  • On the January transfer window, Thorup says any home-grown targets will need to be younger players, because that's where the value is.

  • Sunderland are the "best transition team in the league", according to Thorup.

You can listen to commentary of Sunderland versus Norwich City with BBC Radio Norfolk FM and DAB on Saturday from 14:00 GMT on Saturday.
