    [Albion] Keeper rotation

    We weren’t pressed so not really many options to play like that

    [Albion] No criticism of RDZ ?

    And laying the ball off to Almiron, Isaak and Wilson :eek:

    [Albion] Quality of our chances v West Ham

    Never scored in 70 odd games at the top level apparently (PL, Championship, Scotland) He has at under 21 level and below. I hope RDZ sticks with him, I really like his quick feet and passing ability. He does need an enforcer around him though.

    [Albion] Keeper rotation

    Yes, rotating outfield players depending on the opposition is something I’ve long felt our managers should do. Why not keepers? Teams with big aggressive players relying on hoofs or crosses play Bart as he appears to be better at taking crosses under pressure…from what little I’ve seen. Going...

    [Albion] No criticism of RDZ ?

    No criticism from me, we were always going to lose occasionally against low block teams and we will again. The club have been very slow, for whatever reason, in replacing Moises. If we don’t replace him these results will become pretty commonplace, against teams that don’t press us and have...

    [Albion] Van Hecke or Webster?

    In hindsight I think maybe we should have gone for JPVH, he may have been more up to a physical battle with Antonio. Haaland bullied Webster but not JPVH in the reverse fixture, that is all I am basing my after the event observation on. I think I’d risk him against Newcastle, he has had a few...

    [Albion] Enjoy the journey

    Yeah I was thinking more about how history has been rewritten on here since he just walked away, taking his ball and jumpers.

    [Albion] Quality of our chances v West Ham

    I was gutted Gilmour didn’t hit that blasted shot a foot to the right. That was our best chance of the first 60 mins or so and would have totally changed the game imo. Their keeper saved the game from becoming very exciting in the last 15. Credit to West Ham for some last ditch blocks that...

    [Albion] Enjoy the journey

    I have been enjoying our football for a number of years now. Yes I am one of the few who rated GP, not as good as RDZ but none the less a very welcome change to what I’d been watching for most of our time in the PL. I am a negative bugger and expect us to fail most weekends and am thrilled when...

    [Albion] Taylor already ignoring new guidelines

    Maybe they should let the ref’s in on it!

    [Albion] Bart

    Well they certainly conspired to get us into “another fine mess”

    [Albion] Taylor already ignoring new guidelines

    I am trying to be pragmatic and not whingy :smile: The handball did deny a potential opportunity but his hand was in a totally natural position when falling. Dunk last week was obviously a deliberate handball as he has eyes in his back, apparently :lolol: No consistency at all but we are used...

    [Albion] Bart

    I’d keep Bart in for that game, probably better at taking crosses and through balls against big players challenging him, as his brave take taking out the WHU player showed. Against big physical teams I’d play him. Couldn’t fault his footwork and passing but is he as good as Steele in holding...

    [Albion] Taylor already ignoring new guidelines

    I am away so was watching on TV, and saw a number of replays. I would have given both but they were not glaring errors so I kind of get why VAR didn’t intervene. If it had been us committing the fouls then yes of course both would have been given as pens, and VAR would not have overturned...

    [Albion] Taylor already ignoring new guidelines

    I don’t think the ref was THAT bad but he didn’t give us much, I put our loss down to defensive errors, great defending by West Ham, great finishing by them and a ball that bounced very kindly for them most of the game. Shit happens. If Taylor had given pens for the tackle on Mitoma and the...

    [Football] Our Lack of Pace in Defence on Transition

    Isaak, Wilson and Almiron breaking against us next week, pace coupled with physicality from two of them. RDZ is going to have to play a blinder on team selection and tactics. The defence we had out yesterday would be over run imo, as would the midfield if we try and play the same way...
