Yeah, I was about to say. It says more about City that Bruce is our ‘best manager’ more than Bruce being a good manager. Hopefully there are better times ahead.
Looks like he’s trying hard to impress. He has lots of energy. I’d like to see him start before judging too soon.
I think West Brom have been quite poor. They got their goal in the first half and sat deep since then, with a pen gifted to them early in the second half. They’ve literally done **** all else. I still think we could’ve scraped a point at least had it only been 1 - 0.
They’ve gone from 5th to 13th since he took over, we’ve handed them 3 points today. Huge game against Brum next week. Doc needs dropping again Slater back in the middle Longman wide
It wasn’t the worse performance of the season by us. Nowhere near as bad as Barnsley. We had pretty much free reign since the 30th minute. It’s just we don’t have the qualify in midfield to create clear chances; same old story.
Looking on the bright side, the new owner won't need to spend too much time thinking about his retained list for next season.
We weren't great,not were Albion, those officials were ****ing useless and that bald fadge at the back conned them about 8 times.
... and up front. Hardly even laid a glove on them. Their back 3, and keeper, are unlikely to have had, or have, an easier day all season.
A lot of huffing and puffing but sadly we lack quality, West Brom didn't have to do a great deal today to take the points but they were organised enough to nullify us. KLP sticks that first half chance away and it may have been a different game. I know Acun has indicated the big money will be spent on the forwards, but we need money spent right round the park tbh to bring in some quality. Few of these lads will flourish alongside decent players, but there are others that sadly aren't of the standard needed to take us further up the league pushing for potential promotion.
That was just crap, they bossed nearly every loose ball in midfield, we couldn't put a pass to our own players, it was just crap. Hard to see what Allahyar offers us at this stage, too early to judge but he looks to have a lot to do. They came out fired up and for half an hour they stuffed us, why can't we do that?
When 2 managers can’t get a tune out of a squad... Does make you wonder. Over half this squad wouldn’t get picked up by a championship side if we released them.
Another poor home performance. Expected us to give it a real go, but we only woke up after they scored and we just huffed and puffed for most of the second half even after making changes. West Brom sat back after the penalty knowing that apart from KLP we had no threat up front. Same old same old really and we should have expected it given our track record recently.
