[Archived] West Brom v Blackburn Rovers

[philipl]

Bunn warming up

[Dunnfc]

where is the midfield, there is a MASSIVE hole in the middle and West Brom are exploiting it

No dm and Hanley and Nelsen aint stepping up.

[RibbleValleyRover]

As expected they are walking through our midfield, just hope we can hang on and perhaps hit them on the counter.

[Radagast]

First good save by Robbo. We look awfully inept in midfield already

Flippin' heck, talk about a being brought back down to earth. Not what you expect to hear after taking an early lead.

[RibbleValleyRover]

Oooohhh just over from Niko.

[AggyBlue]

Oh my, another great chance for Kally, just misses

[HairwayToSteven]

1 all.

[tony gale's mic]

1-1. FFS.

[RibbleValleyRover]

1-1. Inevitable we have no midfield.

[Valois]

1-1 ######

[den]

1-1

[chris]

wow our defense is all over the place.

[Eddie]

That is criminally bad defending by Salgado. What was he doing?

[philipl]

Very open game

[beerwins]

No excuse not to bring in a midfielder now, its glaringly obvious we have'nt got any.

[Dunnfc]

Said at the start of the game thomas has pace...

[imy9]

That hole has been exposed, we need someone to sit in there, MGP and Emerton are all over the place.

[RibbleValleyRover]

wow our defense is all over the place.

Not really the defense's fault, they are facing huge pressure because the midfield just isn't doing anything.

[DE.]

A lot of issues with how we're playing atm, as has been noted there's a gaping hole in midfield that a more experienced manager would have never allowed to exist. Defensively we're weak, but that's par the course this season so far.

[AggyBlue]

Deary me. 1 -1.

WBA midfielders all seem to be able to run 20/30 metres with the ball. unchallenged, everytime they are in possession

[philipl]

Matin Olsson is no left back- that was just too easy for the Baggies.

[Roverall]

You could drive 3 articulated trucks through our supposed midfield.

[Valois]

Could have been 2-0, and now its 1-1. Sums up how things are going at the moment. Not enough fight in the side at the moment, FFS come on get stuck in there.

[RibbleValleyRover]

West Brom ripping us apart.

[Radagast]

From the sounds of things Kean needs to consider something drastic like getting Givet on to sit in front of the back four.
