[Albion] Locadia Today

The first half was excellent and we should have gone in ahead. Locadia played his part in that for 20 minutes. Thereafter, sadly his touch deserted him and generally seemed to be in the way, like the guy who gets picked last in the playground. This hasn't worked and it is time to cut our losses which I think is a matter of genuine regret.

Bloody lazy player running the length of the pitch to score a goal

Much, much better today. Worthy man of the match.

Hopefully this is the turning point.

Has to start Saturday after that performance. Give him a good run in the team.

Far from IMO. Ryan kept us in it with some stunning saves and far more worthy. Locadia may have scored (with help from Arsenal just as we helped them for their goal) but his all round game was awful (amongst a number of equals today) His first touch, control and passes were more often that not poor. As for his running, he looks like he’s stuck in treacle. No pace what so ever. I know this sounds harsh but I think today showed why he’s not a PL player despite the goal. I’ll add that Bernardo on another day could have cost us several goals. Proper and Stephens showed why we’ll never score goals in many matches, talk about inability to shoot and or turn attack into defence. Hope Knocky starts next game, Gross was much better today. Murray does what Murray does and Andone looked quick and nimble, what I was hoping for from attackers. But I don’t think Arsenal at their best today. We got lucky on that front. Both sides and the match in a word were scruffy. Very pleased with a point mind.

needs to lose at least 8 kgs ....solly needs to practice shooting ,interesting to see proper in a more forward role but if he's going to be doing that then he needs to practice also .....happy with the point ...3 would have been lovely ....ta ta

Hats off to the fella, he was great today :)
He seemed a little unsure who to pick up when we didn’t have the ball, but his control and distribution were first class today ... and a great finish too !!!

You were at a different game!

I don't think I was watching the same game as you tonight...?

Wow strange how we see the same game but in different ways. I thought his touch and passing was good.
