Chris Willock joined West Brom on loan from Benfica at the start of the season.
He couldn't break into their side, so his parent club recalled him and sent him out to Huddersfield in January.
He's just scored an early goal... against the Baggies. Could send Leeds up at their expense and give Brentford the opportunity to move into 2nd.
Ouch.
 
Huddersfield beating WBA means if Brentford win their next two games they’ll be joining Leeds in the Prem. I’d really like to see them come up, seem a real good footballing side, although it does mean any dream of mine for us to sign Watkins goes out the window, lol.

He's got an £18m release clause, allegedly. If Benrhama goes, which seems likely, he might decide it's a good idea, too.

Almost seems too good to be true, that's pretty much what we paid for Janssen IIRC. I know he's unproven in the Prem but everything about him screams Premier League player. Really would like to see him at the club.

Chelsea do seem to be sniffing around Benrahma so it's definitely possible. Though I've seen figures of £40m being thrown about, no one's paying that for a Championship player, regardless of how good he is.

I can't believe that he is moaning about the 2nd penalty at our place being chalked off, unlike the majority of decisions (the ones that Lampard I would guess is referring to) it was the correct decision.
Only the most red people ie @Diego would disagree with Frank I understand that as the Utd manager he is the most red of people but just keep quiet stating that these decisions were not in your favour does not make you look clever.

"It should actually be me complaining", says the man who is benefiting from dodgy decisions every week. ****ing clown.

Does that table cover all the penalties too? I'm not sure what that table covers, is it every decision that goes to VAR, or only those where VAR has a different opinion from the ref? That table only shows a net 10 to ManU. Given that 7 goals against ManU have been chalked off by VAR, and given the vast number of penalties that they've had, I'm not sure that the net number is even high enough!

I think it's overruled decisions where VAR has disagreed with the ref.
As you suggest, that doesn't tell the full story, as it doesn't say anything about whether the decisions were right.

It's the news that a lot of people have been wanting for years. Donald has gone!
Stewart Donald has resigned as chairman of Sunderland.
Why? What did you think I was talking about?

You're doing the old Pep has left City schtick. Beneath the headlines it tells you that it is another Pep and City is Birmingham City.

The thing that gets me is the main defence, namely that the refs aren't corrupt but merely incompetent, fails to address one obvious issue: why are refs consistently incompetent in favour of certains teams, rather than having their incompetence spread around like a particularly dense Nutella?
