[Albion] What a brilliant game of football

[Nobby Cybergoat]

I thought Foden was easily their best player last night. He just glides over the turf. Palmer didn't come close to matching him.

Yes and it just shows what an unbelievable side they have that he isn't guaranteed a place!

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Is there a difference?

Having been at the match, I’d like to see the analysis and discussion as well as the game. We have an old Sky box and NOWTV Sports package so can’t record it.

 

[Barrow Boy]

Can't go out to The Amex anymore due to ill health, don't have Sky Sports so I watched on my daughters laptop via Now TV. What a match, I've been following The Albion since the early 1960's but nothing prepared me for last night, seeing us boss City around was a pure joy to watch. And remember, a lot of Europe will have been watching us as well, if they didn't know who we were before, they do now! Like others, as soon as the team sheets were announced I feared the worst, how wrong was I, so proud of our club. And I nearly broke my daughters Laptop when Enciso hit that wonder goal, and it's such a change when you hear all Sky's pundits discussing just how good we are before, during and after the match, not about how City must have had an 'off night'.

And I apologise unreservedly to RDZ and the youngsters for what I thought when I saw the teamsheet

Absolutely amazing & City we’re definitely up for it , they were playing at their normal tempo and high level it’s just they struggled with our aggressive pressing all over the pitch. We have some many elite young players . Still have Sarmiento to come next season, once he’s got a few more games under his belt , it will be like having another Encisco on the pitch . Brilliant

I think Sarmiento is the best of the South Americans pity a bit injury prone

I have great hopes for Sarmiento becoming first choice in the Lallana role next season

I guess you're referring to the attacking players and not necessarily Caicedo and Mac etc.

But in any case I agree with the sentiment. He's not had the run of fitness to show it, but from what i've seen, I wouldn't be surprised if he surpassed our other attacking talent in time

Hopefully not to the same song

Music means so much to me, mainly as I've been a pro DJ for most of my life.
Wedding song was Procal Harem - Whiter Shade Of Pale.
The boat thing was in Mexico about 8 years ago. Unlimited drinks and food and lots of dancing. I got roped in to something, may have been YMCA or similar.
Even worse, my (ex) mate has just sent me a video of my leaping about last night. No, I'm not posting it.

You know you waNt to

 

[BUTTERBALL]

Total football. Having endured years of Barnet at home and Wycombe away, this is literally the stuff of dreams.

 

[West Upper Seagull]

And their absolute shitehousery at the Amex this season AND the complete f*** up by VAR not giving the Solly March penalty too

We really do owe them a sound thrashing to assuage the hurts

Brentford somehow beating City again, Leeds drawing with Spurs, and the Bees grabbing the last Conference spot, would be the icing on the cake.

WHAT a post match celebration for Albion fans to go into the close season with

#dreamer

I’m hoping for us beating them, giving John McGinn a damn good reason to go down and kicking him all over the park (after his play acting at the Amex) and Brentford to steal the Conference place off both Villa and Spurs !

 

[BN41Albion]

I am so with you on this, I really want us to put them in their box. I can’t stand Villa - I still have memories of them celebrating their last minute goal that cost us the championship title as if they’d won the league, and then there was the 2-1 defeat at their place when we absolutely bossed the game despite having Mooy sent off and lost it with the last kick of the game - the mocking from their fans after that game was unreal. I will be there Sunday and looking for karma !

Looking for? We've already finished above them in 6th on relative shoestring spending - f*** em!

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Like you I saw our team and though "crikey, let's hope Cithe have their kids out again......oh bollocks!"

He's a mental genius! I can only assume his team talk went something like.....

Pascal you are going to play full back, make sure you use that Cruyff as liberally as you do up the field.

PVH and Levi you two are centre halfs but if you fancy a go at playing centre forward then no problem just make sure the other is covering.

Pervis, Moises you two play wherever the f*** you like I trust you.

Julio, it's not really worked for you the last couple of games playing wide, stick in the middle of the park and just run at them and if you get chance let one fly.

Steeley you are going to play sweeper, don't worry about gloves you won't need them.

This, in a season of stella performances, last night was supernova

Yes, Stella. To think we could be playing Atletico Madri in their Red Stripe. Light years on from the Carling Cup.

 

[Klaas]

I clicked on this hoping he had a good view of the Enciso goal. I wasn't disappointed.
