Exclusive – Sebastien Bassong: Hard work is paying off for Norwich City

Norwich City star Sebastien Bassong reckons old fashioned hard work is the reason behind their change in fortunes.

The Canaries’ 2-1 win over Sunderland sees them now unbeaten in eight games and up to 12th in the Premier League.

And, after a tricky start to life under Chris Hughton, Bassong believes that plenty of hard work on the training pitch has resulted in their upturn in form.

He told Hawksbee and Jacobs: “After all the work we’ve done from the start of the season up to now we’re really delighted about how things are coming along.

“I’m not able say one thing that made us change like this. I think it’s going to be pretty basic but it’s just the work [we put in]. We just work hard in training week in, week out, every day.

“A lot of players came in to the team this season so perhaps it took time for us to adapt and after the poor start we had I think it could only get better.”
