NEIL Danns won’t be settling for second best as Wanderers head to Carrow Road tonight.

Pumped up after his sensational strike against Brentford on Saturday the midfielder is now gunning for six points from two recently-relegated sides in Norwich and Cardiff.

A tall order on the face of it, that has not deterred the chirpy Liverpudlian from setting his sights high with a newly-discovered wave of self-belief coursing through the squad.

“If we want to be competing where I think we should be then we’ve got to beat every team put in front of us,” he said.

“Norwich and Cardiff aren’t Barcelona or Real Madrid – we’re not going to kid ourselves and start building teams up to be something they are not.

“We are playing well at the moment. That’s the confidence that is back in me.

“I’m going into these two games thinking ‘I want three points from them both’ not a draw, not a good performance, just three points.”

Norwich lie sixth and could move into the automatic promotion places with a win tonight, while Wanderers’ best case scenario is to escape the bottom three.

However changed the mood may be at the Macron, the scars of a poor start to the season are going to take some time to fade.

Danns hopes a spell as underdogs could be to Wanderers’ advantage. And as the television cameras descend on East Anglia tonight expecting a home win, the former Leicester City star senses a surprise could be looming.

“At the moment I think this is working in our favour,” he said. “Sides are probably looking at where we are in the table and thinking ‘we’ll turn these over no problems’ but we have become a totally different animal.

“We always knew we had the quality in the squad, now we have the belief to match it. We honestly believe we can match anyone. We’re on a high.”

Neil Lennon also spared a thought for the Wanderers fans who will have to make the five-hour, 211-mile trip to Carrow Road on a Friday evening.

Television scheduling meant a switch of date from Saturday, leaving a number of fans unable to travel.

Lennon hopes the performance will reward those who make the long journey.

“I feel a bit for our supporters – Friday night away to Norwich, for some people that’s impossible to get back unless they are taking cars,” said the Whites boss.

“It’s very tough on them and I don’t know how many we’ll be able to bring but we’ll be thankful to anyone who makes that tough trip.”
