Chris Hughton says that it does not matter how Norwich City end their nine-game winless streak.

Norwich City manager Chris Hughton has said that three points is all that matters when his team takes on Everton this afternoon.

The Canaries have not won in nine games and have slipped back into the relegation mire.

Hughton said that he is not concerned with how his team end their dismal run as long as they claim three points.

"Whether it is a classy performance where you are creating a lot of chances or a scrappy one-goal win it doesn't matter," Hughton told reporters.

"We are what we are, a team who have to scrap for every result we get and it will be no different in the last 12 games we have.

"We went through a spell of 10 games where we didn't lose. Are we doing anything dramatically different to that? No, we are not. However that win comes, whether it is by a stylish performance or a fortunate own goal, it is part and parcel of the game."

Norwich's last win was against Wigan Athletic at Carrow Road on December 15.
