[Albion] Fab's pre-Villa presser

[Bozza]

Slightly earlier than usual at 8:30 this morning.

 

[Conkers]

Is this only streamed in the Terrace too for the princely sum of £65 and a free chicken tender or can we watch this on YouTube?

 

[Bozza]

No great surprise.

 

[Miximate]

Real shame but possibly more worried about Minteh being available to try and do a job on Rashford.

 

[Reddleman]

Adam Webster has thoroughly proved me wrong the last few games he has been outstanding. But, this is why we need to replace him, he simply cannot string a run of games together without picking up injuries. It’s a shame but we need to move on.

Is Minteh questionable then, haven’t seen anything.

Assumed Saturday was fatigue

Webster has always been a decent defender. He’s been playing in his preferred position on the left side he’s not as good when he plays next to Dunk on the right.

Sunset is 19:34 on Wednesday so hopefully he will be able to eat a little before the game. Also only needs to play for 90 minutes this time.

Mind you, the shift he puts in, 2 minutes would be my absolute limit. With or without fasting!

Edit: rumour has it that Ramadan is over. I'm surprised no one on this thread mentioned it.

Fasting is over I believe.

The cramp annoys me.
There is a simple prevention for cramp.
1500 mg of potassium supplement daily.

I was getting cramp every day before I started on the potassium.
Now I NEVER get cramp.
Never.

Looked like cramp which is no surprise given how much he ran on little or no fluids. Hopefully will be fine.

 

[Mellotron]

Yeah but he's doing the 5:2 diet.

 

[Mellotron]

Any noises on how long out for Rutter? If he's out for a significant number of weeks that could be a big issue IMO. Game changer, that lad.

Probably the rest of the season I think he said.

The good thing is we're not short of '10s'. Can play Pedro there with Welbz up top or use Gruda, O'Riley, maybe even Gomez. The issue is, with the exception of Pedro, none affect the game the way Rutter did.

The natural replacement, though, probably would have been Enciso

Looks like we're now reliant on Welbeck and Dunk staying fit for the rest of the season. Rabbit's feet, clovers and lucky pants out everyone.

Plus Hinsh and Pervis

None of them hold or carry the all as well as Rutter.

And I really like home and think he'll come good but Gruda is really ponderous on the ball and runs into cul-de-sacs. He'll get there. Hopefully he can step up but it pretty far off Rutters level at the mo IMHO.

I think we'll go with Welbz and Pedro up top now. With Weiffer and O'Reilly coming on maybe later in the game to firm things up. I don't see how Enciso could play Rutters role without a complete change of tactics as he's more of an impact guy than someone who can hold the ball and bring others in like Rutter. Although I wouldn't mind having him round for something a bit different.

Hopefully someone will see this is an opening to take their chance.

Eid was on Sunday - Ramadan is over.
