Match Thread West Bromwich Albion vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Is this where we bottle 4th place again? If we win we are in top 4, if we lose we don't!

 

[BornBlue76]

Really looking forward to this one.. Carlo v Sam.

a case of "you have it".. "no you have it"... DCL and whoever their CF is with sore necks watching the ball punted over their heads all game.
If any game should have 0-0 written all over it, it should be this one..

4-3 to the Blues.

 

[Sharpattack]

If we win this it’ll be double gravy all round. This will be an awful watch.

 

[Rodebaard]

James to bag a brace. DCL scrambled goal, Keane header. Bosh. 4-0

 

[JMT]

He's not a moron he'll be telling his players to boot Richarlison all over the place.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Big Sam would be unbearable if he beats us. Saying that he sounded annoyed that he plays us midweek before that 6 pointer against Newcastle so hopefully he rests a few of his better players for this one and settles for a point.

If we can get our noses infront we should be able to see the game out.

West Brom are hopeless at keeping the ball. Their last 10 league games have all been less than 40% possession so we need to get on the ball, retain possession, frustrate them and get the first goal. They will happily sit back for a 0-0 so as soon as that plan goes out the window the game is there to be won.

Hamez ran the show against these last time

Lets hope it happens again

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Trust Allardyce to do us over here

1st goal is key in this one - we get it they'll have to open up whereas if they nick it will be a long night of them tkme wasting and committing constant fouls to slow the game down with 10 behind the ball.

No Goalie
-
Pickford playing sweeper-quarterback
-
Holdgate - Keane - Godfrey - Digne
Davies
Doucoure Gomes
Jameth - DCL - Rico​

I would actually play Onyango for Duke in this one to give him a rest, but reckon he will opt for the above.

Howayyyyyy the lids

Appease Big Sam pre-match with a sacrificial offer of 5 pints of Bisto...let him roll over, tick his belly, take the 2v0 win...

 

[DanB90]

Sam will turn this into an ugly game IMO. Could do with another early goal.

 

[RomanReigns]

the pressure is all on west brom

the problem is west brom cannot play attacking expansive football like fulham

ultimately this west brom side lack quality

 

[brieverton]

I'd be very cautious of playing Allan, and indeed, DCL in this game.

I don't think Gomes has the legs for two games in a week either.

Hopefully James and Davies are back, move Richarlison central and start King.

We should be capable of dispatching WBA but there are no comfortable games and this won't be either.
