WBA53 match thread

A good performance by Albion tonight but with such dominance you have to win. With all the chances he gets, just to put one away is not good enough. I do worry about Bruce, though, one of the most promising players we’ve had in a while, TGH, doesn’t get a look in; how can Bruce think that Phillips or Reach are better off the bench than TGH? Also, I’m surprised that more goals aren’t scored like Watford’s, the keepers stand far too far forward for my liking but it didn’t help that our skipper gave the ball away with an aimless lob! Still, overall, a promising show!

It’s the draws that kill you in this division.

A failure to convert possession and chances and too many draws and then the inevitable losses get you into trouble.

Mark my words here and remember them, if we don’t get a win or two quickly now we’ll be talking about how much s h I t we are in after 8 to 10 matches.

FFS......get a couple of strikers in ASAP.

Ajayi MOTM for me.

Very positive and good from Furlong, Wallace, Diangana and O’Shea.

And, boy, what a difference in quality when Okay replaced Livermore.

Should of course have had 3 points, day light robbery for Watford to get away with a point.

We might already have a contender for goal of the season though in Ismaïla Sarr.

And, please, get some proper strikers in ASAP.

Good to see Diangana getting some confidence back.

Looked mor like the player we had on loan, clearly a confidence player and fair play to Bruce for getting his head right, was like having a new signing last night.

Wallace would be my pick for MOTM, put some miles in last night and injected much needed quality on the right side, striker is absolutely a must.

Best team performance I've seen for ages by us , the only disappointment was the result, swings & roundabouts we will probably win games we deserved to get nothing out , that's football.

Wallace was superb! Thought Ajayi and O’Shea were great too! 100% need a striker as can’t miss sitters like those last night every game!

Mark your words? I think every Albion fan plus the Manager and coaching staff will echo what is so obvious. However, none of us can get the strikers in.

Last season 3rd on shots made, 23rd on shots converted to goals. Where are we stronger this year - creating chances. Little is going to change unless we change the strikers except maybe we will be 24th on conversion rate and maybe 1st or 2nd on shots made.
