Ahh... Reading that was like warm custard atop fresh Apple pie the whole way through. Top review, the Berahinho and Stephen hawking lines are qualitah...

2-0, but this is likely:

WBA will stick 11 behind the ball for 90 and spoil the game. The key for us is getting 2 goals quickly then the flood gates will open as heads go down.

It will either be a 1nill job or they will get absolutely bingoed.

I think it's important to get at these from the start and get an early goal, if we an get a goal on the first 20 minutes i think we can go on and beat these comfortably, if we don't they will just sit back and the longer it stays 0-0 the more confident they will get. Come on blues lets batter these.

100% agree with both of you - the early goal is vital. WBA will quite happily sit back with 11 men in their own box for 88 minutes if it stops us taking a lead. If we get that lead in the first 30 minutes however it will force them to play a bit more openly, and allow us to vary our tactics too. It's no coincidence that we have won the last three games and scored early in each of them.
 
This will be interesting today, we can't counter West Brom. I see we are doing late tests on Stones and Howard, worrying stuff.
Still it is West Brom and no matter what Everton will beat West Brom; another 3-0.

We're going to absolutely bum these - IF Martinez decides to be a decent manager and stick with the winning full-of-confidence eleven who've been performing so well recently.

If Howard comes in forget the feelgood factor that's surrounding us right now, it'll be like we're coming into the game on the back of being bummed ourselves. The atmosphere will be dog and the defence will be a bag of nerves.

Hoping for Robles and Bryan to start - not arsed about Mori because although he's looked mostly good he has as many mistakes as Stones in him - and inspire us to victory!

5 - 1

Lukaku first half brace
Barkley
Niasse two late goals

Brunt for them, via a deflection
 

It's was 68' not 69'.....just saying.

My wife's family are all Baggies season ticket holders so a big win to keep me smiling on those family get togethers will do me just fine today
 

West Brom will be hoping for just a 3-0 defeat, but will be delighted with just a 1-0.
2-0 to the blues.

West Brom are not in a good place! They have gone five league games without a victory. and are winless in seven away from home. They have failed to register a single shot on target in three of their last four league games.

Simon Brotherton, BBC: "Meanwhile, West Brom's 1-0 defeat at Newcastle last week was described by Tony Pulis as their worst performance on the road during his time there. They followed it up by scraping past Peterborough in the FA Cup."

Berahino has been rehabilitated, but is likely to start on the bench. West Brom will, no doubt, put up their usual resolute defence, but will be handicapped by the loss of Gareth McAuley, and potentially Jonny Evans, Craig Dawson and Chris Brunt too.

It doesn't look a very demanding day for the goal keeper, but just one good save could be vital.
