striker Posted 27 September, 2020 Share Posted 27 September, 2020 WBA can score, they have very good attacking players. Their issues are on defence, and specifically the back 4. Also they only have 1 pt, but they have played Everton (who is in form), Chelsea, and Leicester. Leicester was 0-0 at the half (a 0-2 loss), Everton was I think tied at the half but then they lost a player to a red card, and Chelsea of course was a draw. They are better than people think, and will not be a push over. By the way I didn't see Austin even on the bench today, I don't think he even makes the team for matches anymore.

I will be perfectly happy with dour rubbish and a 1-0 win rather than exciting high press 3-4 defeat . Lets get the momentum going and get some points on the board and then worry about style. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hasper57saint Posted 27 September, 2020 Share Posted 27 September, 2020 Don’ t underestimate the Baggies as it borders on the arrogant. They have some really good attackers and their aggression is legion. I would like to beat every other team in the Premier but know full well we never will but, we can try.

Turkish Posted 27 September, 2020 Share Posted 27 September, 2020 We will win, Ralph will say that the performance shows how good our squad if and he’s happy with it despite us only bringing in a last minute loan signing from a club we’ve never heard of. Everyone will applaud and say how great it is we give youth a chance, that we can’t afford anyone anyway and the January transfer window is only 3 months away, let’s assess what we need then. 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tajjuk Posted 29 September, 2020 Share Posted 29 September, 2020 Pereira is their main threat. If we can keep him quiet then we should have a decent chance of winning as defensively they look poor, yeh they scored 3 goals against Chelsea but all of them were errors and they basically scored with every shot they had.

The "high line" wasn't really the problem, it was the fact we stopped pressing in midfield, and let them pick their passes. Also Stephens and KWP being the wrong side or not reacting quickly enough. Carragher did some analysis on it on Sky and he was spot on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu_Saint Posted 30 September, 2020 Share Posted 30 September, 2020 To get the win over Burnley was massive however they come. This is another huge game, we have to beat teams at home that you would expect to be in the bottom half. I would expect we need 6 points in October from the the 4 fixtures especially playing West Brom, Chelsea, Everton and Villa that would set us up nicely going into a difficult November although we should pick up some points in December too.

Mr X Posted 1 October, 2020 Share Posted 1 October, 2020 WBA concede goals but they also score a fair few too and attack with no fear, nervous about this one, anything less than a point will be a bad result, we should be taking points off these teams bit how many times have we said that? Like others have pointed out we are really a one man team in terms of goals, you keep inggs quiet and that's 95% of our attacking threat gone.

Eric The Red Posted 2 October, 2020 Share Posted 2 October, 2020 Well I like West Brom, I find their fans (generally) pretty friendly and a definite cut above either Villa or Wolves. Their team however looks pretty bad with a particularly leaky defence, cue a desperate 1-0 or 2-1 defeat 😒 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wimborne_saint Posted 3 October, 2020 Share Posted 3 October, 2020 By the sound of this quote from Ralph, Vestergaard in line to start again tomorrow: "Jannik’s had some difficult times here, not always supported like is good for a player, but I think he was the best man on the pitch last weekend.
