    11 goals conceded in 39 league games for Burnley

    Absolutely ridiculous.

    Even more ridiculous when you see 28 goals scored and 5 conceded at home. 25 goals scored and 6 conceded away from home.

    West Brom’s next 4 games

    Sunderland (4th)
    Bristol City (8th)
    Watford (9th)
    Coventry (5th)

    So many twists and turns to come for the play-offs yet

    If we win next week, we’re guaranteed because of teams in 5th - 10th still to play each other

    I appreciate the view it isnt entertaining football. However, I think it is one of the best coaching achievements in a long while. That sort of thing does not happen without extraordinary work on the training ground. I would love to be able to watch one of the defensive shape sessions, must be unreal.

    Didn't realise they had Darlow as number 2. Makes the whole persistence with Meslier even more ridiculous.

    Very good GK at this level is Darlow. Plenty of experience too, can’t believe he hasn’t played in the league sooner

    This is the point I was making with the Patterson debate. If Darlow comes in, barely played, then makes a couple of mistakes then there is massive tension and pressure. Then what does Farke do, bring Meslier back in? Then the pressure is massively back on him.

    Can go the other way of course and Darlow improves them. He's a good back up to have.

    Blackburn v Middlesbrough is a big game tomorrow

    Home win and they’re back in the play-off mix!
