Norwich matchwinner Hanley delighted for Gilmour after victory over Southampton

Norwich City goalscorer Grant Hanley says there's more to come from Billy Gilmour.

On-loan Chelsea midfielder Gilmour's first Norwich assist allowed skipper Hanley to head home the winner against Southampton.

“I don't think you need to say much about Billy Gilmour. He will play at the top of the top, with the ability that he's got, his attitude and mentality," said Hanley.

“You only see that in certain players and they're the players that play at the top, so there's no doubt in my mind that Billy Gilmour will play right at the very top.

“So there not too much you need to say to him. He's unbelievable every single day, his mentality. He's never a problem even when he's obviously had a bit of a tough time with not playing.

“But he's probably the best player every day in training, every time he plays he's probably the best player. So nothing to say about Billy Gilmour, apart from I think he'll do alright!"

With a smile, Hanley added: “But actually he was supposed to put that corner front post, he over-hit it."
