Without probably the Albion's best ever technical player behind him he struggles a bit, doesn't he?
That's probably where Leicester went wrong.

He was fairly anonymous today. Could be one of the reasons.

Good point, Leicester fans adored him but their main gripe was his inconsistency. If he made better decisions on the passing/shooting front we would probably be almost promoted.

I'm guessing because AK is a confidence player and is used to having things in a set footballing way.
Being without Bruno behind him, he is not used to, and having Tomori playing behind him may have knocked him out of his comfort zone. IMO.

He definitely missed Bruno today although I think that says so much about Bruno as much as AK. He is rarely as good away from home either.

I think I'm with whatever Glen said to him!
Whilst I love our little magician (and the goals he scores) I find myself getting more and more irritated with his refusal to just pass to our strikers and opting to blast the ball at the goal!
As said above, better decision making and we'd probably be ready for a stroll to promotion. But he's a BHA player and we never do it easy.

He's not the greatest player away from his own turf generally. That has to be accepted I guess.

Hopefully with a 2 week break Bruno will be back for the 2 home games and he will help AK push on to win the games and that is a big point about our game. It must be said that without Bong or Pocognoli we have suffered the same fate on the left but again hopefully the international break has come at the right time to help us back up to speed for the run in.

Why did we let Rob Hunt go out on loan.....doing very well at Oldham by all accounts

It seems to me Solly needs very little help from the full backs to go marauding. Why we don't start him is beyond me.

I'm more interested to know what GM said to AK to provoke the FO response ....

I am sure I read that he is out injured as well up there.

Was unaware,that's a shame-nothing too serious i hope.......our defensive injury list this season is quite something.

"Pass the f-ing ball, you greedy c**t" would be my guess. A very reasonable and measured comment in the circumstances, since Murray was 6 yards out with the goal gaping.

Undoubtedly he's better with Bruno behind him, but there was very little space anyway down the right last night, and he does need a bit of room to accommodate his style. If fact there didn't seem to be much space anywhere on the pitch, mostly, is their pitch smaller ?

Obviously that he should have passed to him rather than have a shot himself, which is obviously true he should have.

Bridcutt was effortlessly able to find at least 10 yards of totally empty space with several of his longer passes last night .Most times it was impossible to work out who he was aiming for.
