Away with the grandchildren this week so will be checking in on here for updates.
LM is carefully rotating his options except at the back. Difficult choices to make but I hope Knight, Williams, Bird and Earthy make the starting 11 against WBA......Sykes is another must for me.

Out of interest which striker would you start with?
 
West Brom last 6 games:
Leeds away - 1-1 draw
QPR home - 1-0 win
Burnley away - 1-1 draw
Hull home - 1-1 draw
Norwich away - 1-0 defeat
Sunderland home - 1-0 defeat.
6 points from possible 18. Average 1 point per game. Not great form, but the 2 score draws vs Burnley and Leeds show that they can go toe to toe with the top teams. Not many sides have gone to Turf Moor or Elland Road and scored, so we need to be careful.

Our recent form:
Millwall away - 2-0 win
Hull home - 1-1 draw
Sheff U away - 1-1 draw
Norwich home - 2-1 win
Burnley away - 1-0 defeat
Watford home - 2-1 win
11 points from a possible 18 - almost double WBAs form, but as I pointed out above; WBA have scored playing away against Leeds and Burnley so they are very dangerous. We will need to be right on top of our game.

Armstrong looked slightly off what he normally offers on Sat, I thought.
To be fair to him he was often isolated up front, he breaks so quick we can’t get people up to support him. Also I think his job was to wind the clock down, disrupt things. He did that well a couple of times with his physicality near the corner flag. It did make me chuckle though, he was flat out near the centre circle at full time, anyone would have thought he’d been charging around for the full 90 minutes.
