Hope we don't go with 5 at the back today, would like a little more threat up top if possible

 

[Bob Latchford]

West Brom hadn't won in 17

Is it possible for us to play more defensively? 2 keepers perhaps?

Original point was in relation to 'lawros predictions' the tosser. West Brom still haven't won in 17 and we're unbeaten in 8.

A few weeks ago the talk was that we were going down. I'm willing to take drab football in the short term and the points board ticking over providing there is some evolution to better football. Only time will tell.

I'm worried that Rooney is pretty much our only creative option.

So, in his absence Siggy does the creating and Oumar scores the goals. Simple.

 

[blue to the bone]

These are much better than WBA and look what the Baggies almost did to us.

Worrying.

Let's hope Rooney and co step up

Are they that much better though..

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

We're still playing woeful football but these lot have about 3 teams worth of injuries, including Defoe. Won't be a stroll, but I see us scraping another ugly win. 0-1. COYB.

If Rooney is feeling better now that should be that with the back 5. Hopefully.

Why does anyone think Niasse is the answer to our goalscoring issues? He'll be lucky to make the bench. Rooney was only out with flu wasn't he? Anyone know if he's fit again?

 

[Jamiednm]

I’d take a 5-0 win right now.

 

[Stanley Parker]

Are they that much better though.

18 Bournemouth 20 4 5 11 18 31 -13 17
19 West Brom 20 2 9 09 14 27 -13 15

They have different philosophies.

Bournemouth score and concede more goals, win and lose more matches.

And Bournemouth fans have not yet demanded that Eddie Howe must go.

 

[Jimishorts]

I’m confident we’ll win....a corner....maybe?

But not way better as was said. They have failed to score 9 times this season.

Maybe because he's one of our top scorers despite only playing a handful of times
