Farke insists Norwich squad good enough to stay up

Norwich City boss Daniel Farke insists his squad is good enough to stay up.

Despite modest spending, Farke believes his squad are well-equipped to challenge at the highest level.

"I've not been surprised with the jump in quality. We know it's a big step up. We've spent around £1 million and we know it's not easy to be competitive," the German told Sky Sports.

"We were not naive. We know we are playing in the best league in the world against some of the best teams in the world.

"It's a big step up for a newly-promoted side playing with so many young players. We've shown we are capable of winning points on this level.

"We know it will be a big sensation if under these circumstances we are also allowed to play in the Premier League next season but this is what we are trying to do. That's why we work so hard."
