[Albion] Will Saturday Be Our Day Of Absolution?

[el punal]

After the Luton debacle our focus is now on that mob from up the road. The two scenarios that are playing in my mind are :

1.From 2019, we got hammered at home 5-0 by Bournemouth and, frankly, just gave up in the second half. The following Tuesday we were due to play Cardiff who were relegation candidates, like us. They turned up and we didn’t and we lost 2-0. We, in the end, just scraped the drop.

2. After being thumped 5-1 at home by Everton towards the end of last season we then had to meet Arsenal away a week later. Arsenal, top two side vying to be Champions. We turned up and produced one of our best performances of the season winning 3-0.

Which scenario will unfold on Saturday? Please let it be No.2.

Good grief, when will people learn, never tempt Fkn fate, come on....

give it a bloody rest.

My money is on Scenario 3:

1-1

 

[Weststander]

Does RDZ ever set up at all to nullify threats? They have two, I hope he does to an extent. The set up against Neto in the Wolves second half was a joke, either no marking or a slow defender ten metres away.

 

[portlock seagull]

Look, we know it’s 1-1 at best. Just prepare for worst, which is quite likely. Has ever been thus against that lot.

 

[El Turi]

Pedro is likely to be out and none of our injured attackers will be back so I’m not hopeful.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Well, if any other PL coaches were watching we’d better put the tin hats on until the end of the season.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

If Joao Pedro is out and they have Eze and Olise in, its not looking good is it? I am going for Option A.

 

[TomandJerry]

If we loose on Saturday I'll be heading down to the boozer to help ease the pain.

 

[Garyoldfan]

1-1 draw.

 

[Si Gull]

It'll be an absolute something, one way or the other.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

1-1

 

[LamieRobertson]

Option 10

Haha starting to see a gradual cooling towards RDZ on this board after his 15 month honeymoon.

 

[Algernon]

Meh.
They're no longer at a standard worthy of our concern.
We've better fish to fry.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

At least the game hasn't been moved to the Friday - which is Groundhog Day

 

[essbee1]

I think a lot will hinge on the fitness of Palace's duo who went off injured yesterday.

I doubt if the poster has changed his opinion of RDZ …he’ll be mature enough to understand that RDZ is not perfect and not gone with the hype, but at the same time not think he’s rubbish either

 

[Toongull]

Fully expecting a defeat but at least I hope the team gives it a better go.

Not sure De Zerbi really gets how much this one means to the fans.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Indeed.

And, in any case, it's only a game.
