geordie john Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 We got outplayed by West Brom for most of the game. They had more possession than us for f##k's sake! West Brom are second from bottom and have one win all season. They've scored 9 goals all season. Apart from a 19 second Miggy goal and a cracking header from Gayle, there really wasn't must to shout about. Unless your name is Bruce. There is nothing, absolutely zero, to even think that this was a good result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They started the second half well, but we won the game with a great goal. 45% to 55% possession, but we had 7 shots on target to their 3. Hardly outplayed.

GWN Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I just hate the way we are completely out played by EVERY single team we play against, no matter how s*** they are. Its f***ing embarrassing how we cant take the game to the likes of Brighton and West Brom at home like. Absolutely. Would you rather win or outplay them? Outplay a team and most times you will win, yes I’d take that . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said earlier, we pretty much approached it like any other game. Plan to get everyone behind the ball and see if we can break. Difference is Miggy and Wilson playing well and in their correct positions allowed us to counter well a couple of times. I wouldn’t say it was a good performance really, but WBA lacked anything that could really convert their attacks and possession into goals. Also WBA aren’t one of the pressing, high energy teams that absolutely batter us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had 4 very good chances, and scored 2. They had 2 very good chances and scored 1. We have a good habit of scoring late goals, to win us games or draw games (Spurs, Wolves, Palace, West Brom).

Holmesy Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 When fans are paying £50+ for a match ticket you have an obligation to entertain them, rightly or wrongly. Bruce is getting an easy ride because there are no fans in the stadium but he should be given absolute dog's abuse when the stadium allows supporters in, regardless of our league position, because he's serving up a bowl of shit when people are paying for fine dining. We're comfortably the worst team to watch in probably the top two divisions. Any result we get feels more like a fluke than an orchestrated plan. That's not entertaining!

TRon Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Even the press are starting to be a bit mildly critical. Martin Hardy in the Times reckons we have enough of a cushion on 17pts to be a bit more adventurous now given the players we've got. Bruce has been coasting with the excuse safety comes first, but with such a big gap that's not really going to wash any more. Seems even the journalists find it hard work watching us.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 TBH he had a clear and very low objective, which is survival or around a point a game. I’m assuming that’s why he approaches WBA the same way he approaches Man City, over the course of the season it will work enough (once a month, or more with luck) to see us safe. If you’re being generous to him you could say he’s doing his job, if not he’s a shite manager who just happens to have a boss with no standards. Either way, he’s very lucky that nothing is expected of him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 You know I thought his post match interview wasn't as bad as they usually are, he gave most of the credit to the players, and from him that's about as good as it's going to get. He should have just left it there, now he's making them sound like a bunch of cloggers when they are capable of much better actually. It can't be easy playing a passing game when the team is set up to defend deep and boot the ball clear when they do get a hold of it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
