Norwich City boss Johannes Hoff Thorup believes his side now carry a threat down both flanks thanks to the form of Jack Stacey.

He has provided three assists in the last two games, in which the Canaries have scored 10 goals, and Thorup told BBC Radio Norfolk: "There is a fantastic mentality in him. We have been able to find a good position for him where he gives us that threat down the right side.

"At the beginning of the season, we were too left-sided, created too few chances down the right side, but now with Jack in, we are starting to see more assists and goals from the right as well."

Striker Ante Crnac agreed with Thorup's assessment, saying: "Jack is unbelievable. Except for (top scorer) Borja (Sainz), he was the second best player this week. In both games, he played really good."

Norwich are next in action away to QPR on Saturday.
