West Brom Vs City Post Match Thread

it's a toughie, usually deflected goals go to the player who struck it originally if it was on target, as it was with Ya Ya, but Silva tried to touch it so perhaps he'll get the nod. anyways, we shall see.

So no decision yet? How long does it take for them to watch a bloody replay!!

They usually go over every disputed goal at the end of the season.

How shit was the pre match pa system. That video/music (??) was bloody awful, it seem to go on and on forever.
I`ve been to WBA many, many times but that was bouncing. Probably due to the fans` disgust at the belittling media, mixed with an early goal.

Final word from me on this game, what I find most satisfying it is one in the eye for the so called expert pundits (and a few on here) who had more or less written us off, it was a great team performance against a team managed by one of the most defensive managers going, not only that it was the best performance of the first round of games much better than any of our main rivals had turned out, long may that level of performance continue

Players average positions.

Interesting to note the gap between Fernandinho and Toure. Any decent team could very much end up in a 4 v 3 situation with a quick build up or an incisive pass. This is what worries me against really good sides. I just hope Toure sits back a bit more against Chelsea.

Pulis must hate us more and more every year

Against better sides we could drop an attacker for Delph who will screen the back four alongside Fernandinho.

Watching west brom against us was like watching us play 442 against Barca or Bayern. Any other manager who tries it will cop the same. The most pleasing aspect was the intensity and commitment we showed. Well done lads. Let's knock chelski over now.

Without being pedantic, very difficult to find fault anywhere. 3 points on the board Only another 38 to go.

What I have found interesting is this regurgitated stat about the last 5 League Winners all played the first game on a Monday night.

So the predictions of us from finishing 4th at best and as some meedjia outlets would have people believe, that we won't even make a champs league position, we are now in the box seat as we played so well.

I wonder how much grief Lescott has taken for actually saying something positive about us.
