[Albion] Mitoma's goal

[South Stand Bonfire]

He should have been booked for being too quick! I was convinced the ball was going out.

Had a Japanese couple two rows in front of us. Joined in all the songs etc but boy did the bloke go nuts when Mitoma scored. Jumping around like a lunatic, high fiving everybody around him - looked like he was about to have a heart attack. It was quite gratifying to see someone enjoying their day at the Amex so much. Long may it continue.

They're very nice and polite - one let us get served before him in the West Upper before kick off because his other half had wandered off. 'No worries, cheers mate' I said - What's Japanese for 'thank you'?

Ian Wright always puts loads of praise on us

Yes he does. My comment was more re the fact the analysis is predominantly about how badly our opposition play against us.

A-ree-ga-toe?

Mitoma just epitomises what the Albion are about, absolute class

 

[Sheebo]

Was convinced he was offside so didn’t celebrate

A-ree-ga-toe?

That’ll do

Was convinced he was offside so didn’t celebrate

Me too. I was also convinced that Veltman hand-balled the 2nd in so two goals went uncelebrated!

It’s partly the bloody VAR thing. We couldn’t 100% relax until West Ham kicked off.

Yep - it was very tight. I was only watching the defender by him and think he was just ahead but the defender on the far side played him on with an outstretched leg.

They got a bit frustrated, but it wasn't that bad

We could, in the family stand, we were all sitting back smoking cigars for both goals.

Never in doubt.

Sky highlights commentary was gushing……..

The NBC commentator said "Stop it... " like the players were being a bit saucy or something.

Solly the matador toying with their entire team, shifting them left then right. Everyone forgot about Mitoma.

1:46

Ben Johnson certainly forgot about Mitoma (his man), just as he forgot about his man Veltman for the second goal (and missed a simple header to gift us the penalty.

his performance at right back was up there with Jonathon Grounds and Dan Harding. Woeful.

Johnson must be one of the slowest, most ponderous defenders in the division. Assigning Johnson to try and keep tabs on Mitoma was always doomed to failure

Johnson must be one of the slowest defenders in the division. Assigning Johnson to try and keep tabs on Mitoma was a complete walkover

We were discussing him towards the end of the first half, and I said I hoped he got nothing else wrong before half time, to prompt Moyes to sub him at the break.
I can’t believe he didn’t, to be honest.

Moyes handled it badly in open play, foolishly not adapting. Time-wasting twat Silva put two on Mitoma, with Diop joining them, crowding him. Fortuitously for us, Mitoma destroyed Johnson every time.
