[Albion] Worst Performance Since?

... without pics?

At WBA's place there should be more onus on them to push up and we could get a bit more space behind. Nevertheless, well done WBA

Our small bunch go home and away. Not a cat in hell's chance of that happening for this one. It was rubbish, a PL side against a reserve Champ side.

This was a game for Murray. An inexperienced championship team would have been dealt with far better by the old campaigner.

Andone didn't really have a clue today.

Thought we did OK without an end product. WBA came to do nothing and achieved that. Another day we'd have won by three. Disappointing maybe but won't lose sleep over it tbh.

He rather demonstrated the old adage that players are better when not playing. People were decrying his non-selection against Liverpool and Man U and then he does that against West Brom youth

I honestly feel for folks dragging their kids along for an introduction to a BHA matchday experience.

 

[Icy Gull]

I can sum that game up easily. We defend much better than we attack and today we made attacking so complicated and slow. Rubbish going forward today imo, really frustrating game. Burn’s debut the highlight.

Yes, i know a couple who did -what a mess. and to think that one of the alleged advantages of opening up the ground bit by bit was supposed to be in their favour. I am all for encouraging news fans- that must be good for the club - but today managed to cheese off season ticket holders and new fans alike after such an abject performance.

Tried to be too cute with every final pass, it's as if our players (mainly our front three) had the attitude that their superior status would see them past the minnows of 2nd in the Championship.

Not sure why Knockaert is getting the brunt of it, Locadia was just as bad. Twice he had golden opportunities to square it comfortably to players making unchecked runs into the box and both times he chose to smash it into the closest man because he simply wasn't aware of his teammates.

Kayal also seemed confused as to what he was supposed to be doing and was flailing around in frustration more than Knockaert.

Players obviously desperate to make an impact and break into the side, unfortunately a case of trying too hard which has left us with an unwelcome replay to squeeze in.

I didn’t go, but Cantor/Aspinall essentially said a similar thing. They felt that Bissouma/Kayal/Knockaert/Locadia didn’t keep it simple with passing, all anxiously over doing it and playing poorly, with Andone’s performance summed up by an air shot.

Didn’t see any of it, but struggling to see how it could have been worse than our last performance at their place.......

It wasn't even in the same ballpark as that performance.

 

[RandyWanger]

I thought we played okay, was nice to see us boss the midfield and have the bulk of possession, their keeper made some good saves but as usual, we we're a bit wasteful. Not poor at all IMO.

it is a bit weird when the opposition are singing our songs

They sang them so we don't have to.

I agree. I've seen far worse.
It was a poor game but give West Brom some credit for their defending. They made it hard for us to get a shot away.
Yes there were some mix ups, with passes going to where they thought players should be, but that's because it was a mish mash of squad members.
West Brom knocked Liverpool out of the cup last year.

 

[amexer]

We didnt play badly. Just that Locadia, Androne and Knockhaert were terrible

 

[The_Viper]

Didn't expect such a meltdown over a draw in the FA cup 4th round but here we are.

 

[LamieRobertson]

We've played way worse than that several times this season already. Watford away certainly springs to mind. Thought we did ok without an end product.

That’s the way I saw it ..quite enjoyed the game tbh ..welcome relief from fighting for league points

 

[whitelion]

League 1?

The Hyypia era?

Obviously on a wind up. Did you go?

My first game for many a year...yes we missed some easy chances to put it away but now I can see how many posters here are on a wind up. Please tell me you are.

We put out a pretty strong PL XI against a 2nd XI Championship side and did #@@# all. Pretty damming I would say.
