Pedro is fit. He’s been dropped for the last two games and rightly so.
I didn’t expect to say this a couple of months ago but we look better without him at the moment.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] Positives tonight v Chelsea part deux.

It turns out the manager might not be the total fraud some on here claimed he was a couple of weeks ago after all

Webster, Baleba, Hinshelwood, Minteh and Mitoma all had great games

Does he still have a show on Talkshite? Could be worth a listen...

The Amex can’t have been rocking for a second week running - I was told on here it’s a shit atmosphere

Correct but you missed Lamptey.
If you’d said a few months back our back 4 would be Webster and Lamptey left back you’d have feared. Last 2 games against a team who were amongst the best in the league they haven’t conceded. And no I’m not counting a mis hit cross and keeper error on them.

That Joel didn’t have to be rushed to a spinal unit from the ferocity of Fernandez’ push

A second date with Chelsea in a week, on Valentine's Day .... And f***ed them.
4 (arguably 5)? really? Are you serious?
Name them. Lamptey if Estupinan was fit (although Lamptey is up to the job, no worries)? Webster if Dunk was fit - probably getting to the state of being arguable this season...........and that's it.

Do you mean FH may not be out of his depth?Manager got it right, brilliant
pasty
A different kind of pasty
Minteh making sideshow bob look stupid to score. Not once, but twice 
Pedro was available (and played); Ayari was on the bench. Dunk vs. Webster is arguable (albeit a close contest); Kadioglu was brought as a LB to challenge Estupinan.
So, hogwash basically.

Right now, on tonight’s performance, and recent form. I wouldn’t take any of those.

As good a defending performance as attacking. To restrict Chelsea to 0 shots on goal with the quality they have is some feat! Still in awe by our pressing in the 95th minute rather than slow the game down and 'just play it to the corner flags'.

Agree. That open goal he sky'd was shocking although he'd only just come on! He is out of form at present and looks it.
BOTH of Minteh’s goals

Agreed. I'm interested to see how he copes with it, as he's used to being top dog, considered irreplaceable.
Hopefully he reacts in the right way.
