West Brom (a) League Cup pre-match thread

Happy with that ream, not sure what all the moaning about Delph is about, if Pep thought he was shit he would be gone by now. Foden will play when Pep thinks its right for the team and the player. I am inclined to suggest Pep knows best.

I'm sure Delph won't last a full 90, so hopefully Pep is giving Delph with more experience a chance to prove himself, before giving the likes of Foden and Diaz a run out

how do they do that though ? training only does so much. the problem for any youngsters we have is that our squad is massive and we are so stocked in positions now.

That is why most go out on loan, exactly the same situation as the vast majority of kids at all the top clubs. it isn't unique to us. As for our massive squad, we've got one of the smallest in the league, it just happens to be filled with quality.

Subs: Myhill, Hegazi, Field, Barry, McClean, Phillips, Rondon.

Close to, if not full strength.

The mighty JFE on display lads (and lasses) we will be lucky to get a sniff on goal.

Very good team. This will be a great introduction to the physical teams for Bernardo.

Hour for Yaya or just first half?

At least it can't go to a replay,fancy it to go to extra time though ..

Most of them play together week in week out and are solid experienced PL players + home advantage

I hope I'm wrong but I think this is gonna be a lot harder than people think

Not saying it will be easy or not. Just think even WBA have a few missing from what you would call their strong side.
They have all the defensive side of their game in place.

Seems my Delph post was a tad unpopular! :)

Stand by what I say. We should be playing kids like Foden tonight, if they can't start in the 3rd round of the League Cup they have no chance.
