WATCH: Norwich's Jonny Howson Channels His Inner Paul Scholes

Jonny Howson channeled his inner Paul Scholes as he scored a thumping goal to eventually secure his side with all three points.

Norwich ran riot against Nottingham Forest, bagging five goals en route to their league victory including not one but TWO sublime volleys from Howson and the 'Irish Messi' Wes Hoolahan.

Howson opened the scoring in the tenth minute with his absolute hellacious volley from outside from box, reminiscent of Scholes' effort against Aston Villa.

To refresh your memory, here's 'Scholesy' strike back in 2006:

And now, here's Howson's attempt to create that exact goal:

WHAT. A. HIT!

As well as that incredible strike, Hoolahan made it three with an equally-amazing volley:

Damn, the Carrow Road faithfuls were treated to some great goals.
