To be fair all of us got it wrong I will hold my hands up nobody really thought we would win tonight
An absolutely brilliant performance today.
The game showed he hasn't lost the players and the players at the back can perform when allowed to play the only way they can.
Now keep Bartley out and flog him in Jan and buy a box to box mf in Jan and at least a play off place should be assured.
Even Jrod wanted it today.
Over the moon tonight.
Great result Blood but apart from Gayle coming back in - lets hope he does not tinker with the formation or side. Robson Kanu played well today but Gayle must start next game and yes we need a strong midfielder who can dictate the middle.
Lets see what happens at Ipswich as certainly not getting carried away................ Keep Bartley and Brunt out though!
Absolutely chuffed as fck tonight for big Darren Moore, cracking result for the Albion! Probably the best game I’ve seen HRK have for us, Gibbo back on fire, Phillips back at it, centre halves being centre halves (in the centre!)I could go on.
DM’s a young manager who’s learning all the while and tonight he was brave enough to change it, let’s face it he had to, I love 442, hopefully this is the way forward now.
Albion back on track... COMMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGGHHNNN!!!
Football is a funny old game. None of us saw this coming. I doubt Leeds did. But then it is the Albion. We should all know better. But remember, it’s the hope that kills.
I had £2 on Albion to win 3-1 and Gayle to score anytime. 22 to 1
Surely DM will now realise what most of us fans have been saying since the start of the season, that a back three and playing it out from the back just doesn't work. The back four looked a much more solid unit and he must also stick with the same personel i.e. no Bartley. In fact I wouldn't even have him on the bench. As for Chris Brunt, that's a different matter. No, he's not a central mid- fielder but would always have him in the squad as he is versatile and can come on and do a job in varying roles.
