Farke news. Norwich are fast becoming everyone’s favourite second team this season but their German boss, Daniel Farke, is plonking his feet firmly auf dem boden despite the thrilling win over Manchester City last weekend.

“I wasn’t carried away by the Man City win. Perhaps the reaction was a bit too much, but it is always a big topic when a team wins against them,” said Farke.

“We are still unbelievably modest, we always have to prove ourselves again and again. We have beaten one of the best teams in the world, but all the teams have different approaches.

“We got back to proper, focused work (at training) and are hoping for a good result at Burnley. Man City was good for the confidence and mood, but Burnley will be completely different.”

And what does he expect from Sean Dyche’s side?

“They are quite a physical side and are dangerous in crossing situations, are sharp enough to win second balls, so we have to be awake at defending crosses.

“We are totally different to Burnley in how we play, but when you stick together and have spirit, commitment and togetherness, like they have, then you can be successful, so they can be a role model for us.

“We will try to get off the mark with our first away win as quickly as possible, but I don’t expect it to be easy tomorrow.”

Farke has Patrick Roberts available again after the on-loan winger was not eligible to face parent club Manchester City.

Elsewhere, midfielder Moritz Leitner has shaken off a calf injury and defender Grant Hanley looks to be over a pesky groin problem.

In further Carrow Road news, Norwich sporting director Stuart Webber has signed a new three-year contract until the summer of 2022.
