    REDS boss Simon Davey gave his thoughts ahead of the trip to Norwich City.</p>

    Simon said: &quot;We can talk all day about teams and tactics for the Norwich game but I only have to tell my players two words - repeat performance. If we can do that then there are not many teams in this division that will be able to live with us.
    &quot;I am not going to give anything away but it would be hard to change the team. We have been given the Performance of the Week award and those eleven players have been the centre of a lot of euphoria this week.

    &quot;I have had a lot of sleepless nights over it and how could I look someone in the eye and leave them out this weekend? That is something I have had to decide and people will see my decisions on Saturday. It is not easy.
    &quot;You only have to look back three weeks to see how good a team Norwich can be. They have been on a long run and losing against Leicester could be the worst thing for us. We wanted to go there when they were still on their unbeaten run so we could be up against a backlash on Saturday. That is what I will be warning the players about.
    &quot;Having said that, we are very confident at the moment and our recent form is pretty good. We have beaten Colchester and West Brom and only lost against Plymouth after we were wrongly reduced to ten men in the first couple of minutes.
    &quot;Hopefully the Liverpool win will have given my players a massive boost and we can take that on against Norwich.
    &quot;Rob Kozluk should be fit for the game and he has trained today. We will monitor him again on Friday before travelling to Norwich.
    &quot;We will have Tony Warner, Jon Macken and Lewin Nyatanga back in with us as well so I have a lot of problems. They are good problems to have.
    &quot;I have a squad of players now that really give me options on the bench. I did not have that last season. We have players who can come on and change a game.
    &quot;You only have to look at what Kayode (Odejayi) did against Liverpool to see that. Kayode has had a lot of stick from supporters this season but he came on and gave Jamie Carragher and Sami Hyypia a torrid time&quot;.</p>

    Maybe Nyatanga`s contract could make your mind up Simon.
