Well, Pompey away seems a very long time ago. I’m very concerned about our lack of scoring and now the defence will have a large overhaul due to injuries. Conceding a single goal at home in six games is a Club record but our lack of home scoring is a combination of sides putting everyone behind the ball, us lacking that killer pass to unlock this (and when we do it’s not executed) and now there is home pressure plus this psychological monkey on our back. We must persevere with Grant and Molumby must start. I like the idea of Grant and Maja being both up top. Grady on the bench for me. As for Dike, I can’t help but feel this is career make or break time for him. He has been very unlucky and the negative impact on his confidence must be immense. As for tonight, I’m going 1-1. That said, the game can bore me to tears and I’ll take a scruffy win but I can’t see it. Luton a tricky place to get a result. Safe trip everyone tonight and I’ll see a few of you trudging through the back gardens again. Keeping the faith but currently a tad tough.
Nice analysis, guys. We do need to change things up. The lads need to play with loads of effort and passion. Carlos should keep us pressing up front and we need to play a full match! Let’s remain positive Baggies fans! Up the Albion! Keep up the great videos, guys!
Good evening Paul & Dan, May I say thank you for reading mine and other fans posts, and the tributes you pay to them, it is an honour and pleasure to watch your Vlogs, you both give a balance to your analysis, and rsise important issues, 👍 If I may I would like to comment on certain issues; 1. From what I understand from social media elsewhere, fans who have been at the training ground have witnessed Carlos intruducing new formations, with using two players up front - Maja/Wallace & Cole with another player..and I believe 3-5-2 as per what Paul suggested,.. 2. From what I have read regarding our defensive players, McNair with his injury will likely not play for us again,.. 3. Regarding Tom Fellows, Corberan is protecting him after being kicked around by the oppositions 2 man marking,.. I have noted that Fellows has not been selected for the England Elite squad, and that compounded by the constant Prem league "buzzards" circling around him is also bound to have an effect on him, however I genuinly believe he will remain at WBA,.. 4.On our "goal drought" I respectfully suggest we have had many chances per game, but when the opposition put 10 men in their box its like putting a brick wall between the goal posts,..however in saying that we need a "Periera/Harvey Barnes type player who will charge at pace at the oppositions box..when we had Harvey Barnes on the attack the whole Hawthorns full house were on their feet chanting "Barnes will tear you apart again" Harvey was that good,..as for Periera - for me he was magic..just as Mikey Johnston was on fire for us last season,.. we really do need another Harvey Barnes, just as in my earlier days we had the legend Richard Sneekes.. 5. On our "poor form".. nah relax baggies fans we are in bloody 5th..just relax and keep cheering the team on 👍 I tell you what Paul & Dan we could all get together at the pub and talk about the Baggies all night having a few beers etc and go home with smiles on our faces singing at the top of our our voices Palm 23 👍 😄
Hiya Fella, Thank you so much for being such a loyal follower and a regular contributor. Your kind comments really do make our day, and we welcome your thoughts and opinions. The pleasure is all ours. We all love the Albion and with the vlog we just try and be honest, entertaining and factual. Life is difficult enough as it is, if we can entertain people then it’s worth all the effort. Now a young Richard Sneekes and perhaps a young Derek Mac. I tell you something, we might even arrange a night in a pub just talking Albion and share our stories. Take care and once again thank you.
Lads i enjoy your videos HOWEVER many of your comments are the same comments people used to defend Southgate, saying "its not Carlos who....its not Carlos who..." While Carlos deserves credt for reducing the wage bill n bringing in some decent platers....you NEED to call Carlos out on his mistakes...IT IS Carlos who takes his best dangerous players off when we need goals. IT IS Carlos who defends for 80 mins when we're 1-0 up, IT IS Carlos who plays from the back n tells players to pass sideways n backwards, IT IS Carlos who plays Ashanti.... Diangana out of position. We are doing ok but Carlos' lack if flexibility is preventing us being top 3.
Cant see us Hatters getting anything here. We are awful and terrible injuries and suspensions including our seven best defenders, Mengi, Burke, Andersen, Bell, Doughty, Holmes and Lockyer. Some rumour they may push Mengi back in but he keeps getting injured. Been like this since January and even before
Tricky one this is, ain't gonna elaborate, but I'm thinking ( would like to see starting line up / formation preferably ) if same starting line up as Cardiff, I'm going for... Luton 1 v 2 WBA got a few predictions correct this season, including result AND half time score against Cardiff .. Trust me lads, we've got this one in the bag ..
I would love it if Carlos went 4 4 2. I would bring Cole in with Maja..I believe his goals have dried up because of the amount of work he is having to do. I don't like this one up front malarkey, it's too negative. I would go Palmer; Furlong, Holgate, Heggem, Styles; Fellows, , Swift, Mowatt, Grant; Cole, Maja. SUBS:Wildsmith, Molumby, Racic, Wallace, Dobbin Diangana, Johnston, Diakite
To be honest i just keep the faith we may of dropped off abit but it wouldn't be albion if we didn't were bounce back best thing is we ain't playing bad
Enjoy the preview lads, I’ve been saying this for weeks. Play a 3 5 2 the way we did under Bilic we will concede a few more goals but with the players we have we will score bucket loads.
Hi Mitch, thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. We are thinking about having a viewers league with who gets the match day scores correct. Agree with what you say.
I was noticed against Plymouth that we were experimenting with having the fiont three of Grant Maja and Fellows being interchangeable. I always liked that ploy when Rooney Ronaldo and Van Persi did it for United when they were good. It seemed to throw Plymouth as they took turns down the middle and switched around. They are all pretty quick and I was looking forward to see this tactic being developed further. However we have since become very predictable. I even said Gareth Southgate type of predictable. We have cut out chances in games and we are 5th. So not too bad at all. We just got spoiled by such a good start and winning away from home.
It was probably that other Dutch center forward and not Van Persi. Anyway we only tried it in the first half with Maja drawing the center back wide and Fellows and Grant coming inside. At one point they even changed wings. Not sure why it was abandoned because Fellows got in inside their fullback and center half a couple of times.
In Carlos we trust be careful wgat we wish for in amini blip but still think we will lose 2-0 at Luton the only reason i go for that scoreline is Luton are like a wounded animal at the moment and will be very dangerous at home i hope im wrong but Luton have some very good players
