  • Away to West Brom sat lunch time - pork pie and nibbles

Need to sort out our final ball, but going forward we look decent at the moment.

Don't like that Kos stopped to raise his hand there.

It's a little unsettling that we haven't scored, we're just lacking that dead eye killer strike, or a tap-in, at the end of one of those fluid attacking moves.

Chambers has looked awful defensively this match. Starting to worrying about him. He's far too rash.

This has been the case all season though. West Brom are as poor as any side we've faced and we still can't get one over them. Sooner or later they will get a lucky cross or a corner into our box and we'll screw up. We need a goal before half time to avoid that scenario.

If welbeck doesn't start the second half sharply, get ox on early, and we'll be killing them.
So good to have Kos back!

This system creates the better chances for the midfield who can't shoot for shit. We need a genuine goal scoring CF if we are to retain the lone CF shape, so as to convert these half chances into goals.
We need to start to play the forwards as goal scorers rather than looking to play in the midfield into shooting positions.

To be fair, WBA are 13th. We've only beaten sides placed 14th or lower!

I've always liked Sessegnon. Underrated footballer.

Must be so frustrating for Alexis to be playing with muppets like Giroud and Welbeck.

Too bad he's an utter cunt.

Cor Ramsey is shockingly poor these days

Harsh. He's picking up in the last 3 games. Today is one of his tidiest games this season, haven't seen one spastic pass from him

Alexis hasn't really played as well as either of them today.

0-0 at half time - surprise not.

Welbeck really needs to sort out his finishing.

Ramsey's done well, I don't get the criticism at all. Santi's done well, hope he has air for the second half. 
Want Ox soon enough, it's a game for him. And Sanchez will surely be there at some point.
At back I was worried a few times by chambers, mainly his positioning. Kos looks ok, hope he pulls till the end.
We should win this if we don't self destruct. 

Welbeck is a shit striker. Just doesn't score enough goals.
