Fair comments.... It's a tricky business this, just cause for so many players to be in there. Good times!

It would be a thing of true beauty. The few would be building it up so much the poor things!

Don't say that! We are not standing in the same location.... there is some 17 miles difference.

I cannot see the logic in how our weak link could possibly be someone who isn't currently getting into the team regularly? On that basis how about Danny Fox, Lee Barnard? The only weak link for me would be Danny Fox who is deficient in some quite important ways when it comes to our tactical approach. If Ramirez plays it's not at the expense of something fundamental to our side, when Fox plays he needs carrying by the man playing in front of him, effecting our attacking potential down the left flank.

The degree of transformation in our respective fortunes just never fails to raise a smile!! Such a shame we will not be playing each other for a generation.

Just shows, never mistake calm for inactivity.

--------------- Osvaldo ----------------- Lallana ------- Lambert -------- Rodriguez ------- Wanyama -- Schneiderlin--------- Shaw --- Lovren ----- Yoshida ---- Clyne ---------------- Boruc ----------------- Bench: Gazzaniga, Chambers, Fonte, Cork, Puncheon, Mayuka, Ramirez

Pretty much. Yoshida would still be my first choice to start with Lovren, just hope he doesn't replicate his international form alongside him though! His extra mobility, vision and reading of the game was part of the reason we looked so much better after our shaky start, just under no circumstance put him at full back.

Pope: Johnny, I had no idea your talents were so versatile!! Pablo: Yes [chuckles] - I get that a lot.

As said previously, it's right to ask the question. Personally though I am not too concerned currently. I would trust that the powers that be would not be leading us into potential ruin, there seems to be a possible get out of jail plan should the funding be pulled in the form of the recoup-able transfer fees. Although if the sh*t really did hit the fan it would then become a buyers market as the vultures circle.

Goodbye Monk, and thanks for the clues.

Bloody tease. Thanks for the info as always.

That'll do Monk, that'll do. Until next time, don't retire.

Ah, what's 250,000 euros between forum acquaintances?

18 million euros. Say, £15.5 mil?

That doesn't quite look right.

An Italian international signing for us. Truly never thought I would see the day.

After the whole Gaston Ramirez deal last summer it's difficult to take the tweets on face value; tt least the general trend is entirely positive now. Amazing how just three smilies from someone considered credible can cause a storm. Good work vman.

If you are going to be sarcastic at least get the slogan correct.

The Baggies really are desolate after today. (Need to register to view.) http://westbrom.com/forum/index.php?topic=11676.25

Cracking.

How many season tickets did you guys sell?

Random aside, no yellow cards. West Brom collected 4. A good sign for me.

Maybe he was at the Hawthorns today then!
