West Brom - post match thread

Great performance. Aguero and Gundogan make for a tight MOTM decision. Happy that both have found form again.

Think Fernando deserves nothing but praise considering I'm sure he didn't much want to play at RB, and really doesn't appear to have the qualities for it but did very well under the circumstances.

Everyone played well. Exactly what we needed. Barcelona isn't the ideal game to have after a comeback from poor form but maybe we could nick it.

Boro played well today, but if repeat this performance against them than they'll be no match for us.
 
Nolito the scapegoat now? Ffs we won, stop finding something to moan about. Bravo made a great save late on, and some great punches, but he is still "shaky" apparently. Bore off

We were lucky not to concede, and we all know what it's like when that happens. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure we'd have still scored again but I'd just like to see us be more clinical in putting sides away when we are so dominant.

Loved the game mate, so I'm not being negative, just unnecessarily nervy for that part of the game.

And they were equally lucky not to concede 7 mate. I know what you're saying though.

I actually loved the way we battled during that 20 minute spell. No one went hiding.
 
West Brom threatened in the same way most Premier League teams will - get it wide and get it in the box and hope to create, it's not them playing well it desperation. Some will score, most will not but class during a season will always show
 
Sets us up nicely for Tuesday and Barca don't play until tonight.
Good performance by the whole team. Nolito needs to lose the temper though or he could cost us again.
 
Not bad for a work in progress!
Good to see Sergio expand his obvious talents beyond smashing the ball in the back of the net! wonder if Pep has asked him to be more "Messi- like" as his performance today was all round more expansive.
Gundogan is now 100% and showing it with the two goals.
might have to sink a few tonight to celebrate!
 
I understand now why Pep played such a weak team against United midweek. They just aren't worth our effort. A mid-table mediocre side.

West brom came and pressed and we gave up possession to easily. Slopping passing and getting caught in possession, we can expect a lot morevof this versus Barca.

I'm very happy with the manager and the way in which we are playing for most parts, I think we will do very well but we have had too many good/bad halves so far even on our winning run. Also our performances against top sides is very poor. Get these two things sorted and we will be very good.

We're gonna have to come to terms with the idea that he is an instigator of play and not a stopper. He has made some good saves that Joe would have been proud of, but his 'goalkeeping' philosophy seems to be written in a foreign language for me to fully understand!

Yep his footwork was decent mate. And he did make a couple of half decent straight forward saves. But comes off his line at times and it could have cost us. But it didn't and it was a resounding win. Well pleased with that
 
Not saying I don't care about derbies but in the end the loss against them isn't the end of the world and we were vindicated for rotating today while they were punished for deciding not to.
 
Ha ha well done Pulis........never disappoints on mentioning the MONEY!!


West Brom manager Tony Pulis: "In the first half we sat back waiting for it to happen. In the second half we gave it a go but needed to score. As the game opens up they have real quality on the break.

"I'm disappointed with all the goals. We should do better. You look at the money they have spent and their quality and depth is absolutely frightening."

I love City more than I hate United.

So does Pep and the majority on here. I couldn't give a fuck about Wednesday now. And I very much doubt any United fan is basking in the after glow of Wednesday now, they'll instead be fucked off.

Every team in the CL rested players this week, if it was West Ham we played then you wouldn't give a fuck.
