Took the words out of my mouth. Wolves away at the start of last season was one of the best individual performances from an Albion player last year. He was unplayable.

They have to cut the audio on the last couple of lines to let the fans sing it, as they’ve done for recent seasons. Totally loses its impact when they leave the audio running.

What I’m more bothered about is that they cut the audio on the last couple of lines to let the fans sing solo. That’s the most powerful bit and I’ve got no idea why they’ve changed it.

Seems unlikely if Ornstein reported a bid from us had been accepted. I reckon this could be another Osman situation, where we agree a deal after the window shuts, to join when it opens again.

We have conceded too many chances but in fairness I felt similar this time last year. Although we were getting plaudits for winning our first two games 4-1 and scoring loads of goals, we looked way too open to me. The good news is we’re winning, signing new players and we’ve got time to figure...

I’ve never understood fans who say: “yeah I’d take £60m” or whatever for a key member of the squad. Fair enough for a fringe player but someone like Adingra? It’s not your money and surely as a fan, you’ve seen over the past two weeks the importance of having a deep squad. If we do sell...

Welbeck is criminally underrated by some Albion fans. What he offers us in experience, pace and general play is worth so much more than just goals. He’s been a brilliant signing and remains our best centre forward, despite all of the money we’ve spent and the promising players coming through...

I probably should know this but what’s the difference between selling an academy graduate and a non-academy graduate, in financial terms? I get the impression selling academy players is better for the books. Is it purely because there was no transfer fee paid for them in the first place...

This isn’t supposed to be ironic (given we played part of last season with no fit wingers) but how many wingers do we need?!!!

Robbery barely does that afternoon justice!

How reliable is Derren Howard? Such a shame that he’s missing the Roma games if true. Takes our chances to very slim without him and Mitoma.

I did mine in December and it was a week from application to delivery.

What’s all this nonsense about him having been rubbish for weeks? Yes, he’s not been as good as he was last season but we always look a totally different side when he’s in the team. Take Burnley at home. We were pony in the first half. Mitoma came on at half time and all of a sudden we looked...

Has to be one of Ferguson or Welbeck with one of Pedro or Fati, surely? Other than that don’t really disagree, although I’d imagine JPVH will play.

As much as everyone got quite excited, it seems to have been a lot of noise about nothing, doesn’t it? Nothing reliable has been reported about our interest or an offer, anyway. I hope this transfer does happen but it’s become evident over the last two transfer windows that people push agendas...

I said when the team announced that I didn’t like it, but of course had total trust in RDZ. Has Ferguson and Welbeck up top together ever worked before? We instantly lose some control in midfield. Very easy in hindsight, of course, but I’d have played Dahoud or Lallana in there. I love both...

Feels very Mac Allister-esque if indeed we are actually interested.

I agree he’s probably getting poor advice but I don’t understand people who are pretending he’s some poor little lamb being moved as his agents see fit. His agents are clearly only motivated by money but Caicedo is an adult with his own mind and significant life experience already.

Don’t forget that, despite the earlier reports, Romano said there was no way it would take any more than £70/80m!

I wonder if the deadline was the start of the season, which is why the noise about Chelsea dreaming of him being presented at Sunday’s match has begun. All speculation of course. If they sign Adams and Lavia, surely they can’t also splurge £100m on Caicedo with any pretence that they’re...
