How long would a LEAST favourite current Albion player thread last before it gets MODDED out?... Is it even worth starting one?
Done.

Michel; Perhaps our best goalkeeper - ever. Loyal and patient when (wrongly) replaced, full-focussed professional.
Dean Cox; Occasional trivialities off the pitch, but then he's willing to prove his value to the squad by hard work on the pitch. Has been known to have a great shot, and could practise it on opposition keepers more than he does.
Nicky Forster; As hungry for the ball, and the game, as any player. Very aware of the flight of a ball, he wins the 50/50 balls way more times than he has a right to. Can hold the ball up well for players to get into positions.
These are 'favourite' players by their abilities and traits in the squad. In my opinion, with the talents and abilities our squad already has at it's disposal there's NO reason why we shouldn't be running this division.
If we play to our squad member's strengths, the team will be amazing.
Sometimes I see The Albion playing into the hands of opposing teams, by making a lottery of it - handing over the initiative, waiving the player's strengths and putting the ball-possession basically up for grabs for whole matchs. That is as frustrating as all hell.
Yes, we could, easily, be running this division.

Considering in his first 2 seasons how often he was nominated MoM and wasn't he very close to player of the season AND considering his age and size, yet he still manages to hold his own in a league full of hoofers and donkeys then yes.
His form is shocking at the moment although against Man City he gave glimpses of what he can do.
Go on then. Tell me why you think he hasn't got talent.

I'm with Hans Kraay on this one. I don't really have a favourite player - nobody really stands out for me anymore.
I suppose the last "favourite" player I had was Wayne Henderson.

Pretty much covers it.
Also I would say he is a victim of our fairly thin squad in that he has had little pressure on his place and complacency has affected his form.
I have to say, my fave player is Adam el Abd. He isn't the fastest, or the most skillful (although he is clearly the strongest) but he always plays with passion and clearly cares about the club.
I bet he wrestles crocodiles and grizzly bears in his spare time.

Nope, you're entitled to your opinion, I just don't think he's particularly good that's all. But I wouldn't use the MoM as measurement, because he seemed to get a lot of them last season even when he had a crap game, it became a bit of a joke.
