He wasn’t particularly bad, but his distribution was poor and he gave the ball away too easy.

He certainly doesn't look like a footballer !

West Brom missed two massive sitters, credit to Toth for making the saves, but they really should have scored at least one of those, one was point blank range with the entire net to aim at. I think the defence looked all over the place myself at times. I think if Albion had really gone for it rather than wasting time and sitting back on their lead they could have caused more problems. We looked more comfortable than we were because we had tons of possession which they were quite happy for us to have, because we didn't have a clue what to do to break them down with it.

I am a big Gueye fan but he was up and down with Eustace and since Ismael has come in I dont think he has had a single good game...

Not goals. Or many wins.

Hyam needs to play along side a strong physical leader !

i thought the back two pretty solid,mcloughlin was excellent and hyam was never troubled

I agree with that, but it wasn’t as bad as most are making out. We didn’t create enough in the final third, but besides that it was some neat passing and combative match. Thought Hyam was weak today. Sluggish and lacked creativity on forward passes.

Won’t need them in the national league

i think the best place for him is the bench tbh,he got bullied off the ball every time today

The steadfast refusal to play Gueye from our fans astounds me. He makes things happen when he's on the pitch.

He’s just signed for a new club and contract to 2029

More what I envisioned when we spoke about needing a winger than the Japanese lad. Seems quick and direct, which is what we lack.

You can quickly remove Travis from there he’s a goner

Based on what I have seen today I reckon this could work better for us... Toth Miller. Hyam. McCloughlin Alebiouso. Travis. Tronstad. De Neve Cantwell. Ohashi. Kargbo Early days but Millar looks ideal for a RCB in a back three.

You have to combat the way the opposition play ! We hardly going to football the opposition off the field , are we ? Rubber dinghy men !

Well he's obviously been signed as a first team player, so will be judged by first team standards. That said it's impossible to judge a player off a single competitive game. I do think a switch to 343 is coming though. I dont think we have the right players for 4231.

Hence my Emerton comparison.

just got back from the hawthornes we did`nt plqy badly but if you don`t create any chances despite having most of the ball then you ar`nt going to win many game abelisua is`nt at this level and far from it,miller looked far better when he came on de neve will no doubt work his **** off but there is little from him to suggest he`ll make an impact axel looked like the game was to quick for him,but hopefully he`ll adjust kargo was nigh on unplayable at times,he drew foul after foul,but they wer`nt fouls according the ref with west midlands connections kudos to the referee,he`s obviously from the area so no doubt there will be on free drinks tonight,i could see that was foul on yuki and i was at the other end of the ground

Wasn’t WBA extremely energetic and in our faces? Meant we couldn’t play the way we wanted to?

Not publicly at this point, I know I'm not usually vague, but when you get a foothold, dont throw it away. What I will say, the FF Explosion is now creating the ripples from the rock that landed Whilst, something significant has emerged and all roads lead to Suhail. Maybe the cats lives are running out!!

I have just finished watching the first half . 2 things spring to mind . I think it was penalty but playing away , you don't get it ! This squad of players have the least amount of footballing talent , that I have seen in a blue n white shirts for many years. I doubt , we will get more than 30 points this season (a record for a 3 point win ?) , dreadful signings ! Listening to the manager after game , he won't see February 1st 2026 ! It is time to turn the heat up on Pasha ,Gestede and the Venkys !!! Venkys Out is all that matters ! Another noticeable absence is the lack of We Want Venkys Out from the fans ..

Massive? He probably cost about 250k. Set your expectations low.

might also have something to do with them losing 3 out of their starting back 4 from a large portion of of last season Ahmedhodzic, Soutter & Gilchrist were all in Sheff Utds top 10 most used players in the Championship last season

Can you elaborate and give us some hope, as mine is fading fast?
