Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert insists there were no special emotions involved in their 1-1 draw with Norwich City.
Lambert insists being up against the team he led to successive promotions had not crossed his mind.
He said: "It didn't enter my head at all, not a thing. This is my club.
"It's a brilliant club, I know the lads like back of my hand but it's Chris' team, Chris' club.
"I'll forever be thankful for what those Norwich players have done. But it never bothered me."
