They have now had time to refocus on the rest of the season and will put off a great fight to stay in the Premier League. Norwich host Southampton on Friday 19 June and this is a game they can and need to win.

The Canaries are bottom on 21 points, six points behind 17th place Watford, and they need Teemu Pukki to start scoring goals in order to get out of the relegation spots.

Southampton was looking during the season, but have played a horrible second half to the season so far.
