West Brom v Leeds Utd - Match Thread

[1964white]

Even though we didn't score from one, does anyone one else think our corners are starting to look a little more dangerous, Raph taking them on the left will reap their rewards soon.
On the same subject, I've been watching more games of other teams than for a long time, one thing I have been looking at is the quality of the corners from other teams and tbh on the whole they are poor from most teams, the Chelsea v Villa game the other night was particularly poor.

Raph zips them in

I agree mate, other clubs corners are just as poor, Chelsea v Villa were shocking!

Raphinha all the angles.
Starts the move and finishes it.

That was a thing of beauty from all the angles.

Wonder what Bielsa was saying to Sammy Lee at the end of the game only thing I could make out was Lee nodding and saying thank you.
Bielsa had the conversation without his interpreter, I mean come on, I need an interpreter if I speak to a scouser

I wonder what Rod and Raph were saying to Pascal halfway through the first half

I wonder what Bielsa was saying to spider boy when he just hoofed the ball into the air?

Alioski gives Kalvin a kiss at 3:25

Had some time to reflect on this one since I've been busy since the game ended.

Truly awesome to see the way we responded to a 48 hour turnaround. Our energy level was excellent, with the exact same starting 11. I thought there would be some rotation. But even though Alioski has come in for some criticism I knew his energy would make sure he wouldn't miss out. He scored a great goal and had a really good game despite never really being tested defensively.

There's not much to criticize as everyone had a pretty comfortable game. Strujik looked comfortable. Klich much more comfortable.

I was chuffed with our performance. But at the same time I was really disappointed that Brom just didn't seem to show up and give us a game. They gave us acres of space as they sat back and just made thing so easy. I think Ayling made a 50 yard run from the back at one point. Strujik - criticized for not being quick in distribution before - had tons of time to pick his passes. Obviously WBA don't have the energy levels that we do to deal with a short turnaround. Sam looked completely dejected.

Regardless of Brom's shittiness, great job by the Leeds boys
