Norwich City are dealt a major blow in Premier League relegation battle as goalkeeper Tim Krul faces a lengthy time on the sidelines with a shoulder injury... but Dean Smith is backing deputy Angus Gunn to shine

Norwich have been dealt a blow in their Premier League survival battle with goalkeeper Tim Krul set for a spell on the sidelines because of a shoulder problem.

Dutchman Krul, 33, suffered the injury late on during the victory over Everton on Saturday and Norwich are awaiting confirmation of how long he will be unavailable.

'Tim Krul is out. He hurt his shoulder, the ACL joints, in the last minute of the Everton win,' said boss Dean Smith, whose side travel to relegation rivals Watford on Friday night where Angus Gunn is expected to deputise in goal.
