West Brom away pre match thread

[woollett the bullet]

Just for the ladies . . . . Iborra to start , getting his head on everything then  plenty of shooting and dribbling in and around  the box.

[WigstonWanderer]

Just hoping that the celebration & joy shown by the players after rescuing a point in the dying seconds of the Bournemouth match has generated some team spirit and momentum that starts a good run here.

 

Even Demarai ran on and was celebrating with them and smiling FFS!

Merson has us down for a 2-1 loss.

Any Leicester pubs City's showing away games, bit lost since The Aylestone Lounge stopped showing them.

Pretty sure Lost Bar still shows them all. Bit of a dive but usually a few in there and decent atmosphere.

Gotta disagree, mate. Last season at the Hawthorns he slipped that sweet ball through for Vardy's goal and we won 1-0. The one before that he didn't start - Ulloa played.

 

As for home games, in the 2-2 in the title season he had a great game (only game I saw live that season!). Last season he was subbed at half time after doing very little, but his partner that day was Slimani.  Then this season he didn't play - Iheanancho did.

 

So he's had one excellent game, one OK game with a key assist and one poor game with an unfamiliar partner. 

 

Weird thing this season is that many of the fixtures he has been left out of were his best performances last season.  Like West Ham away and Palace home.

 

Maybe Puel, who apparently aced the job interview because of his in depth knowledge of each Leicester player, hadn't really looked too closely at this. This may be simply because managers generally don't pay much attention to these kinds of things, at least not compared to fans, or indeed players themselves.

 

Ok, I see you probably follow Shinji more closely than I do. I thought the conventional thinking was that Shinji is less effective against big, direct sides because he gets bypassed. I do recall that at least once, and a subsequent game when I discussed it with someone on here.

 

Almost all our managers have used Shinji intermittently, it says a lot for his professionalism that he has never showed any sign of frustration on the pitch.

Can we just inject some tempo tomorrow ? A good opening thirty minutes should see us fine.

if Puel is still in charge I think its going to be WBA 3 - 1 LCFC with us having 21 shots and 18 corners.

if he has been sacked and we have a manager in charge who is familiar with football then id say WBA 0 - 4 LCFC

Bad weirdo

Surely they aren’t going to play an open game. There isnt much point in us being restrained aswell. surely if we attack them we should come out scoring more than them? Their tactics will be obvious. Try and win corners and free kicks in our half. They aren’t going to be trying to work the ball through the middle of the midfield - they will be using the flanks. Puel setting up defensively hoping to catch them on the break isn’t going to work tomorrow. If we are fairly open then they will have to come forward aswell. The more open the game the better for us.

God in heaven can we just win a game for once.

What happens if they beat us?

I can see our fans going apeshit.

I can hear the cries of Puel out.

 

I’m sitting on the fence.

Not yet sure if he is the man to take us forward.

[LCFC FOX]

Where’s everyone drinking? The pub near snow hill station? Always been decent there before 

[reynard]

According to BBC

West Brom welcome back Hal Robson-Kanu but Gareth Barry is out and Jonny Evans is doubtful following a virus.

Injured trio Nacer Chadli, James Morrison and Daniel Sturridge all remain on the sidelines.

 

However, I see Puel is talking about WBA looking good last time and their intensity.

 

With the problems they have injury wise and the fact they are one of the few sides in worse form than us anything less than a win really won't do. If we lose then I think confidence among the fans in Puel will sink to a new low.

Bit early for mind games . Let me have a think.....

[jonny_wright]

I’m going 1-1 Rondon first scorer, header from set piece... we will labour a bit then vardy will pounce and make it 1-1 

 expecting the usual underwhelming starting line up with Iborra exiled, please start Okazaki 

[waylander]

Pardew sacked tomorrow Leicester to start a run of high scoring wins on the way to lifting the fa cup and qualifying for Europe . Puel for mayor of Leicester.
