[Albion] Positives from Roma destroying us

[Coldeanseagull]

A really big positive will be when all the doom mongers and nay sayers piss off and leave the proper fans alone in our misery.

I wouldn't be too sure on taking the taxi on the way there.

I did and got completely screwed over by some old dodger who dropped me off the wrong side of the stadium. I had to walk round and at certain point mainly by the bridge it felt like I was gonna be set upon by a pack of dogs.

Me and brother were subjected to shouting in the face , cut throat gestures , anti English abuse (can take that one), was certainly a buzz when we made it in one piece but bloody scary.

I was actually planning to walk there taking my time avoiding the bridge you crossed and circling round to north. It’s a fair point but TBH all the faffing around with buses puts me off. Will be more selective if we ever qualify again

Comeback of all comebacks now possible Thursday night….

I didn't even cross the bridge I just walked by it !!!! Not nice

 

[Skaville]

-Adingra, Fati and Lamptey all put in decent performances.

- Another pinch yourself that ‘we were there’ moment.

- personally, not getting stabbed or robbed

Were either of you wearing colours?

One positive is it's making me think harder about stuff, although any logic may be unhelpful :
In his post match interview, Roberto said something like... when mentioning all our injuries...: "we really missed Milner on the pitch with his big match experience".
Ok, then what about Lallana, our"coach on the pitch " but still he wasn't played in Rome?? Maybe he could have steadied the ship and help link some passing in the first half?
Was he only to be brought on for his experience if we were leading Roma 0-3? I don't get it ...help, anyone?.

Hasn’t Lallana been shit this season, completely unable to impose himself on games?

Whereas Milner has done okay at DM.

Yes, he's been a disappointment...some little touches but no end result. He may be carrying an injury I guess.
But if RDZ won't play him say first half even against Roma, then let's admit he's a benchwarmer.
I think Enciso and Facu showed inexperience on that big stage (I love them both!).. . Lallana 's experience might have helped calm things .

Don’t worry they will be gone soon!

I think the game’s been up for Lallana all season, a great career, but his legs have gone and in Amex cameos he’s even lost his immaculate passing game. I don’t go to away games, so I wouldn’t know if he’s been brilliant on the road.

Veltman should have been playing LOADS of European experience

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Sky Bet let me cash out my £125 on us to reach the final at 7/1 for £3.35

Wetherspoons here I come!

Yep, assuming he was fit enough, he should have been on the pitch - I was shocked he wasn't

Yes, true... I expect he'll transition into a coach for us (or someone) next season.

I hope he loves it here and not Stains.

Don't believe you said that!

De Zerbi doesn't seem to fancy Joel, which seems bizarre given he has probably been our second most reliable player after Pascal since he arrived.

But then rotating keepers and playing a three back with two CBs bombing on is bizarre, hasn't worked but doesn't change, so I can't say I'm too surprised.
