Norwich manager David Wagner is thrilled the Canaries are flying towards the Championship play-offs under the radar.

City could seal a top-six place against Swansea at Carrow Road on Saturday, and a trip to lowly Birmingham follows on the final day.

With most sides having two games to play, City could yet face any of the top four in a potential play-off semi-final, while Hull or even Coventry could provide their opposition, should several results go perfectly for them.

β€œIt is an interesting situation,” Wagner told ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio Norfolk. β€œI really like our position - nobody is really speaking about us.

β€œEveryone is speaking about catching us or even West Brom [ahead of City on goal difference], but nobody speaks about us. It’s all good.”

City have a three-point cushion over Hull, with a better goal difference, while Coventry are a further six points back, albeit with a game in hand.

Wagner added: β€œLet’s do our job. I say this often: speak less, work more. I like the position which we are in and I really love that we know what we have to do to get the first target done.

β€œYou can smell it, especially today in training after [Hull beat Coventry] yesterday. Everyone knows now exactly – one step and we have done something which would be extraordinary.”
