What I wanted to see, Wieffer and Baleba as midfield partnership, strength in that department is what we need to try to end this barren spell. Come on Albion !
Yes, we need a more solid midfield partnership and Wieffer/ Baleba probably best gives us this. Hopefully works today.
Need Rutter to link up play between midfield and attack and rotate with Joao Pedro in doing this.

Got to agree about Mitoma. He seems to have lost bit of confidence. Can't remember the last time he beat a player.
Allways seems to stop and pass it back.
Indeed. When was the the last time he did that burst on the outside where he then ducks in tight to the byline.

Massive pressure on Dunk today to put in a good performance. Not often we've said that and the defence including Bart needs to be solid and not concede anything daft.

If Van Hecke and Dunk 'handle' Fullkrug the same way they tried with Mateta, we ain't winning this.

Line-up looks promising, fingers crossed.
Can’t help but feel they’ve started Fullkrug in the hope they’ll have similar joy aerially as we’ve seen from other ‘target man’ opposition strikers in recent games.

If he doesn't do well today, Igor must come back.. the defence was playing better without Dunk. Eight goals conceded in three games since he returned
I don't know if it's still blasphemous, but I think Dunky is past his best now. I say that in the hope of looking like a twat come the end of this match.

He had three Palarse players on him last week not sure what he’s meant to do. I would like him to drift all over the pitch or move more central when that happens
He has 3 players on him most weeks because most teams are sensible enough to know that if they negate him, that’s a ton of our threat gone from out wide.

Hopefully Gruda can balance him out today, because Veltman’s back and, unless he does something he never usually does, we’ll offer limited amounts going forward from the right.

On the train now just leaving Camden road for Hackney no idea what to expect today as far as the result goes
I can be confident in saying that at least one of the teams will have points at the end of the match. I've just got a feeling I'm right about that.
