[Albion] Steele and Webster

[Reddleman]

I don’t like singling out players but the amount of goals we are conceding needs to be addressed.

Steele might be good with ball at his feet but the amount of shots he concedes as a percentage of shots faced is ridiculous. I can’t think of any truly exceptional saves he’s made this season.

Webster is just out of form, two goals today he failed to block shots and that shoes a defender just a bit off it. Our two league defeats in which we have conceded 8 goals have come with him starting.

Ultimately today comes down to the wrong team selection but that very much includes picking these two.

Jason Steele is not PL quality. Fact.

 

[Washie]

What about Dunk? He was awful today, Or estupinian, who was awful today. Or veltman.....

I blame Gross

But that’s a one off for those players, are you suggesting they aren’t good enough for us? For Steele and Webster this is happening to often. Did you see Webster against West Ham?

I’m going to anyway.


seriously, what is the benefit of a thread like this?

every single one of them was shit, and it all stems from the crappy set up.

All on RDZ this one, not Steele, nor Webster.

You’ve quoted two matches…not much more than a one off

thank goodness the ADAM WEBSTER BASHING THREAD has been deleted

Yep. Those were the 3. All very poor. Absolutely no idea why Steele and Webster should take any flak for today in comparison. Veltman had the worst game I have seen him play.

Between the OP and your post, that’s highlighting poor games from ALL of our back five.

Thats what happens when you are hopelessly outnumbered and outgunned in midfield.

I'm saying its the, tactics against Everton last season, Dunk was worse than Webster. Or the numerous penalties Dunk gives away? or the amount of OG's he can score. I can some up with examples too, doesn't mean he's shit, it's the positions they are put in

Yeah but RDZ has so much credit in the bank. You go ahead and criticise the manager if you want, don’t think I will.

If you don’t like the thread don’t read or reply to it .

I think the one positive from today is that Steele will be dropped for the rest of the season.

Think we can all agree - great cup keeper, squad player, back up keeper - but light years from being good enough for a top 6 Premier League team.

Time to go all in with Bart. Give the defence constency - and develop one of our top young players, who is surely already good enough to be our number 1.

Sure, we will always have players who have off games or who make mistakes. That's why having a keeper who can pull off worldie saves is such a bonus.

Sanchez shanked the ball into the stand over and over again in midweek. But when his teammate made a mistake he was there to make a great save and keep them in it.

I like Steele, but he doesn't make worldie saves so mistakes get punished.

For poor performances you can add Ferguson. Did nothing of note.

Fair point. We haven’t replaced Caicedo. Or if we have (Baleba) we need to find a way to get him in the team.

You could say the same for Mitoma as well. Who scored has March as our best starting player today

 

[hans kraay fan club]

why?

Why is it not okay to criticise the guy who lost that game before kick off, and instead dig out two blokes who (along with all the others) made errors through being outnumber and exposed time and again?

 

[CaptainDaveUK]

I think we genuinely need a Plan B. We could have played DeZerbiBall all day long and we’d have continued to concede more goals than we scored. Individual players had a poor day at the office, but that defeat is on Roberto. I love our attacking style but if we play like that all the time over 90 minutes, sometimes it will go horribly wrong.

 

[Deadly Danson]

If we had played Bart and Van Hecke someone would have started the same sort of thread. It's always the players not playing who we miss when we lose.

 

[portlock seagull]

I blame Gross

I blame, er, everyone. Yes everyone will do after this catastrophic* defeat.
