[Albion] Premier League 18-20/10/22

[Bozza]

Fulham one up and piling the pressure on hapless Gerrard.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Our players could do with watching a repeat of Harrison Reid's goal for Fulham. Packed penalty box, pick a spot, concentrate on a sweet strike and hit the target. Wasn't a thunderbolt or a worldy, and didn't end up in the back of the stand.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

And one for 'Swanny' - Is there really any point in Dutch clubs entering European cup competitions? 1995 their last triumph?

Still wonder if that took a deflection of a Villa players leg to create the ‘loop’

Even so, it was a calm considered strike, didn't snatch at it, try to hit it too hard. It's that bit of composure I think we lack.

 

[Reddleman]

If Fulham win this we will face Villa in a couple of weeks with a new manager and no doubt some new manager bounce. Very irritating .

 

[Bozza]

What a Koch-up.

Feyenoord won the UEFA Cup in 2002.

Point and point... there's more money in big countries and hardly anyone can challenge the top 5 leagues and their teams. Even Ajax or similar team going to the semi-finals in eg the CL is a big achievement and an indicator that they're doing more with less.

But of course there's a good point in it - it makes them earn money so they can develop talents, which is nice - a lot of the most entertaining players spent a few years in the Netherlands.

Worthing lad as well

What a Koch-up.

Guess you've been waiting years for this opportunity... or not maybe. Not his first Koch-up.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Mings yellow ..tut

Luiz tut tut

…but Mitrovic…blimey down like he’s been shot

 

[BNthree]

Not going well for the Champions of Europe..

 

[Bold Seagull]

Anyone else think that was a very harsh red?

Didn't actually see him lean his head in, it seemed as much the Fulham player banging into him.

Both card and penalty pretty harsh yea

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

Well this is all turning out rather marvellously.

Just like we did when Gerrard got the job. Played them off the park for 80 mins and lost 2-0

I’d have insisted Mitro was taken off for a concussion check…with the force he hit the ground

 

[LamieRobertson]

Mings OG? Oh dear

 

[Motogull]

Ha ha Mingpiece.

He's still going to the WC though.

 

[Seagull58]

Coolly tucked away by Mings at the near post.
