[Dick Head]

And then I saw his face,

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

It's got 4-4 written all over it

 

[NorthStandSeagull]

Unpopular opinion but Dunk is past it now. Only plays because Webster is so bad

 

[peterward]

This is really not a good game for any current or ex Albion player! Thank you Bobby!

Good chance its first game on MOTD?

 

[Triggaaar]

I know the game hasn't stopped, but I don't think they should've had a penalty

 

[Hendrax]

Play DEEPER!!!!

 

[Albion my Albion]

Both teams lucky that the oppo's scorers can't hit an open goal.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Good ol' Wobble Sanchez

This high line isn’t working

I'm stunned that any professional manager anywhere in the world would think such a high line would be wise with our defence and the pace in their attack. Its insane tactics

 

[Swegulls]

It looks like Spuds-Chelsea a couple of years ago. Spurs one man down and kept playing that high line, gifting one goal after another

 

[Quebec Seagull]

This high line isn’t working

Didn't work with RDZ, not working with Fab, either. Haven't the pacy defenders.

Yes, but it wouldn't be if we didn't lose

 

[Marty McFly]

I cannot believe what I am watching. Has to be the craziest game I've ever seen us play in my lifetime

The only other that sticks in my memory - and may only be because it was my first away game - was Pompey’s 4-2 victory over us in 2002.

Described as 'drew a foul' by BBC. We all know what that means.

I agree. It's professional players, playing in style of an U10 game.

Talk about a instant reaction......................................NAH!!!!

 

[Farehamseagull]

Why the f*** are we still persisting with this ludicrous high line?! Thank god Chelsea haven’t signed Baleba yet, we’d be lost without him.

 

[birthofanorange]

If this isn't first up on MOTD, I'll believe Sanchez is a fantastic keeper.

At half time yes. . .

I don’t think he’s past it. But I certainly don’t think Hürzeler style is right for him.
