WBA53 match thread

We started off slowly, not much energy, though a couple of chances.
Huddersfield have a plan of play and use it effectively to get upfield. More energy and belief about them.

We don't learn anything. We don't try new things, we don't copy the likes of Huddersfield or Brentford for recruitment because the mentality is were West Brom were better than that. For years we've thought as a club that we are owed. Were not.

Too many poor poor players? How many times has Johnstone failed to clear it? Does he never learn? No bite in midfield and no attacking threat again!! Does Robinson get his shorts dirty?

Have to agree. TGH doing quite well again but both Robinson and Grant anonymous. I know service to them from midfield virtually non existent but even so . Problem is , we only have Carroll as an attacking option! Sooner Dike back the better and just hope he fulfils the promises (if it's not too late by then)

I really don't think the players are the problem. Its lack of confidence. Leeds aren't poor players but they are losing games now because of a lack of confidence. Its a combination of things. I just don't think we should expect anything until we have a decent manager but our track record is hardly going to encourage it.

It's a number of things Boingy. Squad quality, confidence, tactics, the wrong composite of players, lack of leaders etc.

I agree about confidence but lack of quality every time. Tells you something when TGH is our best player and he’s 20! How can Cleary not play in front of Carroll or Robinson and given a chance? No wonder he will leave?

Mowatt and Livermore non existent!! Button should never have been dropped as on form Johnstone has been poor!

[Omegstrat6]

Thing is Huddersfield haven't really got top quality players either but collectively they are living up to their nickname and getting results because of it. We seemed to start this game quite brightly but as soon as we went a goal down it is same old same old from most of them-no creativity, not closing down quickly enough and not chasing balls. All the things Huddersfield are doing.

[boingy]

Now come on, I'm on maximum points for the prediction league please, please don't score or let one in, just for once. At least give me that.

[Omegstrat6]

Well that's it.Game over.

Why is Robinson still on the pitch btw ? What happened to the Robinson who scored those goals against Chelsea? Boingy is dead right about lack of confidence throughout most of this team but that shouldn't be an excuse for lack of effort!
