[Albion] Positives from Norwich game

[sussex_guy2k2]

Sat/Thurs/Sun is enough really

I thought we had a few weeks of only playing weekends at the moment (Ipswich game aside)?

We don’t have many games at the moment so you’d hope he would. It’ll be interesting to see if he keeps with this philosophy if we progress and the games mount up.

Neither do a lot of Prem teams but most probably played quite weakened teams compared to what they would have done had these been EPL fixtures. It was great to see.

 

[Hamilton]

Sometimes we can buffoon these games. Great to see a convincing scoreline.

I would love to see- for once- win something.

We‘d Smash the championship

Tbh I found this a massive positive. Not that I think we’d go down, but from recent performances a lot of doubt has crept in over how we are able to play vs crap teams. And this performance showed we were on a totally different level to a decent champ team.

Surprised how often they got mugged off, though. They seemed to dilly dally a lot and have the ball pinched off them loads and not want to fix it. Great for us anyway.

Gruda has better close ball skills than anyone else in the squad, once he establishes himself he is going to be some player for us. He also has an eye for a killer pass.

That reflects my opinion too,... by next season he will be automatic pick in our starting 11, ...

I was mega pleased with how sharp Danny looked. Didn’t seem like will take him long to be back at his best and we have missed him.

March back with a goal
Welbz getting some minutes
Enciso scoring
Winning a potential banana skin and showing we're miles ahead in class against reasonable championship side despite having a lot of injures ourselves
No Hurzeler out thread being bounced!

Great to be back to winning ways. Bring on Manure

Agree, but needs to improve his weaker foot, so he can go both ways.
At the moment few teams no anything about him, but Brentford and Arsenal quickly worked out that he’ll always come inside.

Really good player though potentially

Indeed. Good chance of becoming an exceptional player for us. Look forward to bouncing that LUDICROUS recent thread claiming he's already failed.

*Ipswich

Every single game is tough isn't it. Ipswich United and Everton at home all potential losses but likewise, all possibly winnable.

I went to the Reading V Burnley game yesterday, I needed to get out of the house, it was £15 and pay on the gate. It was also a chance to see Ashley Barnes again and Button plays in goal for Reading. it makes me realise I have got really used to the quality of the premier league. Burnley looked the better team, but not much different to league one Reading. there Is something nice about going to a football match where you have zero vested interest in who wins. I nearly let out an audible yell when I saw Solly had scored.

Soft opposition, yes, but:
Did we just stumble on our strongest possible starting line-up?

Web and JPVH seem a very solid combination. Web is a real defensive organiser/communicator, whereas Dunk and JPVH, IMO, are just a bit too similar.

Up front, Enciso offers that creative spark - he just has that football instinct that makes him a yard ahead of everyone else, which creates line breaks. I do rate Joao P, but Enciso just plays better at 10, particularly one touch. If I were playing with Joao P, I just don't know if I'd be able to locate him on the field...
