Got the plague at the moment so couldn't make it tonight. Creditable first half performance, thought Freeman's freekick was in..! Marlon Pack especially seemed to be everywhere. Bit quiet though, I think everyone is frozen to the bone. Lets hope for a similar pattern as last game and we can crank it up the same as we did in the 2nd half at their place.... COME ON YOU REDS...!!!
In the end, it was too easy for West Brom, the only player who posed a threat was Wes. Several of our players just bounced of theirs, we need more presence and more midfielders to attack the box. Bobby Reid, you could be a good player for us but you need to get on those steaks and quick...! Robbie Savage and fellow pundits got it right, too many touches around the box rather than whip the ball in. Something we have been plagued with all season which is why we are where we are.. Oh well, back to the league then. Probably the sensible approach but a bit of a cup run would have been nice...
I Couldn't get there either, thought we were dreadful in the second half, ran out of ideas........thought West Brom were dreadful too, typical Pulis style.
Poor game tonight by both sides. I have to say Bobby Reid is to lightweight,he needs to put some weight on if he to survive,just brushed of the ball everytime. Wes Burns has a much bigger chance of making the breakthrough. I do not think wade and John are the ones to take us forward. We need to employ a guy that has been there and done it.
Just got back and to say it was cold was an understatement. Not to bad of a game, just felt like no one really wanted it, so no real FA Cup drive. But looking at tonight's team I bet there will be lots of changes this coming Saturday. As to what you said Reid needs to get some weight on him. He needs to ask their number 10, **** me he was a monster and our players just bounced of him.
Not just him though, goes back to what I was saying the other week about the size of your average premier league footballer - they are getting bigger, stronger and faster all the time....
