West Brom

[FallowfieldBlade]

I'll be honest FallowfieldBlade I'm going to wait and see how they get on rather than take your word for it. All this bollocks about 'weaker league this year' and 'I've seen them and they're shit' doesn't mean a thing. If you'd have picked 3 random games last season as a neutral we might not have appeared impressive.

One thing I do know about WBA is that they've always just yo-yo'd so it might be the case again, I hope so because it's one place that we don't have to worry about.

Im only going on what I’ve watched they might spend a lot and do well but if they play like they have last two games and when Ive seen them they’ll go down.

I'd just like to say that I've watched almost no Championship football this season so I can confidently say:
Leeds are a great club, great team, wonderful to see them back in the Prem and I think they'll do really well.
West Brom, nice club, good history, think they'll struggle though, fortunate to dodge play-offs.
The play-off team is really going to struggle. Their weaknesses have been evident all season and without significant improvements they're set to finish bottom by a margin.

Can someone tell me whether to apply to Sky, BBC, or 5Live for my cheque?

Rhian Breswter mate, scored 10 in 20 championship games, wouldn't mind him, but think we could do slightly better

Id take him was top scorer and the biggest prospect when the U18’s won the World Cup the other year.
Can see us going for him if we’re not spending millions

That's why I asked who he was thinking.

Chelsea/Leicester want Benrahma, for around 25/30 mil.


The two lads for QPR, Eze and Samuel look great options, and i'm sure i've seen where they are available for £25 mil for the pair.

I'd heard that samuel was off to Club Bruges

There’s no way West Brom stay up , same goes for the team coming up through the play offs.
Leeds May stay up and do well but really can’t see West Brom plus the play off team staying up

Leeds will 100% stay up.
WBA will struggle.
I think Brentford could do well - nice playing style, suits the PL

Masks drastically cut transmission to others, so it's not an individual decision, it's a community one. If you can't not touch your face then you have a self control problem. It's not hard to stop yourself from picking your nose etc before you wash you hands, just needs a bit of concentration at first.

Covid: How well do face masks protect us against the virus?

Face coverings are no longer compulsory on public transport and in shops in England

It's the 24th by the way, so get some ordered, you've only got 2 days.

Lets be clear Masks ( certainly not the ones in the community and out in the shops ) DO NOT drastically cut transmission to others what they do do is give a minimal amount of protection to others from the individual wearing it -the only time they will make a drastic impact is when a large population wear them so yes wear a mask we all should wear a mask to make a difference

A report, published in Nature journal in April, said: “Face masks significantly reduced detection of influenza virus RNA in respiratory droplets and coronavirus RNA in aerosols, with a trend toward reduced detection of coronavirus RNA in respiratory droplets.”

Another study used high-speed video to track droplets and found even holding a washcloth over the mouth was effective in blocking the droplets (similarly a microbiologist shared photographs of bacteria culture spread with and without a mask).

An international report published in The Lancet on 3 June, which analysed data from 172 studies in 16 countries, found that by wearing a face mask there is just a 3% chance of catching COVID-19. And a study by Cambridge University, published on 10 June, says even basic homemade masks can reduce transmission - and could even help prevent a second wave.

On 8 July, Oxford University's Leverhulme Centre for Demographic Science, published a study, with the message: "Cloth face coverings, even homemade masks made of the correct material, are effective in reducing the spread of COVID-19 - for the wearer and those around them" and warned "face masks and coverings work - act now".

A separate study, conducted by the University of Edinburgh, and published on 2 July also suggested that wearing a face covering could help reduce the spread of coronavirus from people who are carriers. The research showed that wearing a covering over the mouth and nose can reduce the forward distance travelled by an exhaled breath by more than 90 per cent.

I dunno I still think benraham May leave is they come up and there similar to Norwich and look how they got on

 

[Yoonited]

Very very true. But as we well know, part of the Chris Wilder Blades Experience is the ability to play on through celebratory drunken stupors. It could have been a nice training exercise for the lad

You call 7 beers a celebration? Party pooper

I'll be honest I've watched quite a lot of football this season especially since the restart and I haven't been impressed by West Brom at all whenever I've seen them.

They may do OK next season but I'd be surprised.

 

[Cerberus Blade]

Not been impressed with them when I have seen them. Congratulations to Callum Robinson, however from United's point of view, I think WBA going up is a good thing. If Brentford fail to go up in the playoffs we may go after a couple of their players.

The Hawthorns is the highest football ground above sea level of all clubs in the English professional leagues.

They didn’t impress me either in terms of ability, but you can’t fault their altitude!

 

[Sheff de party]

I think although not as impressive as Norwich were last season, West Brom look a far better bet to stay in the league imo.

They’re better than Norwich were defensively and look to have a more experienced squad. They may have a similar issue to us by way of struggling to score goals but I think they will do alright

Slavan Billic also has experience of managing in the Prem too.

Put it this way, if Villa stay up, they won’t get away with being that shit again next season, especially if they don’t hold on to Grealish.

I’ve watched quite a few West Brom games this season and they’re really not very good. Assuming Robinson and Diangana don’t sign permanently, they’ll rely on Romaine ‘hide and seek but mainly hide’ Sawyers too much to keep ball.

Perrieira is their best player by some measure and he is quality, but when the chips are down and you need some warriors, I haven’t seen any.

Depends who they buy of course but I think they will struggle.

(I await this post being resurrected when they make the Champions League!)
