Changes afoot for Canaries

Norwich will make at least two changes for the Barclays Premiership game against Portsmouth.

Worthington confirmed that Leon McKenzie, a used substitute in each of Norwich’s seven league games so far, would start the game. It will almost certainly be in place of Gary Doherty, who he replaced at half-time at Liverpool last Saturday.

Worthington also confirmed he would abandon the diamond midfield shape so one of Damien Francis, Gary Holt or Youssef Safri will be dropped to accommodate a naturally wide player, either Paul McVeigh or Mattias Jonson. David Bentley, who started on the bench at Anfield and also came on at half-time, could also start this time.

Team (from): Green, Edworthy, Fleming, Charlton, Drury, Jonson, Francis, Safri, Bentley, Huckerby, McKenzie, McVeigh, Holt, Doherty, Helveg, Svensson, Mulryne, Ward.
