Looked like he REALLY enjoyed his goal, and so he should, great player.

[Albion] Trosdard's role today
- Thread starter macbeth
- Start date
Always thought this ,and with Knocky too. Imagine how much they would both be worth if all the good bits stayed but the inconsistencies weren't there. Knocky worth £25 million and Trossard £60 million. Let's hope wonder coaching works for Tross (and Knocky too).

I was SCREAMING for him to taken off and replaced by Ale Mac, then he scored and all was well again
Incidentally, why do commentators pronounce his name with a silent 'D'
Because it is a silent d, presuming it is a “French” Belgian name. I am a French speaker.

I don;t agree that his best position is up front.
Some sort of .... in the hole / free role / attacking central midfield position is where we should put him

Saw this on MOTD - WTF is it about. How is him laying on the ground strengthening the defensive wall against a free-kick.
I'm genuinely baffled.

So the wall can jump, whilst stopping Ward-Prowse from kicking it under the thing.

Without going to the match highlights who's legs are these above Tross.

Had a discussion last week on here regarding why Trossard is never dropped, my defence of Potter's constant selection of him is that when he does get a chance he can finish. He backed that yesterday, plenty of our team would have pulled a worldy out of Forster or hit the woodwork, or killed a pigeon at the back of the stand.

Silly old bat
He could be Flemish Belgian.
Knockaert used to do the same when we were in the Championship. It prevents the ball going under the wall like a daisy cutter.
I saw LuaLua score a goal at Elland Road, just like that. The wall jumped, but he struck the ball hard straight under.

**** off Lino.
To stop players trying to sneak one in under the wall, quite a clever defensive thing that's crept into the game since a few players have scored from doing so.

..... Which is why i said presuming it (the name) is French Belgian. He was born somewhere near the Dutch border, so I guess the only way would be to ask him!
I`m a big fan of BDB but when GP changed it about with Zeqiri on the left and Leo in the middle we looked so much more dangerous . With Dan out for a while i really hope GP sticks with that set-up , as you say it suited him and Andi was very impressive on the left .
The pair of legs directly above Trossard's shins - who's been cutting their socks in half FFS? My mum would have gone mental if I'd done that to my football socks.
A lot of players have the foot cut off the socks as players wear these grippy socks and two pairs rub.
