    [Other Sport] Official NFL 2025 thread

    Seems to believe he’s already an NFL Hall of Fame candidate.

    [Albion] Have you given up on this season?

    Having read my brother’s match report from the game yesterday it suggests the players certainly have.

    [Albion] Did you boo?

    I didn’t, but I can appreciate why others did. There’s definitely a sense of entitlement amongst some of our fans, but that wasn’t it yesterday, it was just poor. Quite a sustained period of arguing amongst fans in the North Stand.

    [Albion] 1 win since 20.10.24

    I always struggle to understand using players to cover other positions, obviously I appreciate why Hinshelwood is covering at right back, but playing Carlos at CB then weakens the midfield which creates a secondary problem. Would we not be better off using a defender (Cashin?) but have him...

    [Albion] Ferdi Kadioglu **Singed 27/08/24**

    Didn’t it start as a toe injury, but about 3 weeks later it was revealed as a misdiagnosis and he actually needed surgery? I feel like that was about 6 months ago though. lol, the last game he played was November 2nd, over 6 months ago. He’s played 6 league games for us 🥴

    [Football] Yasin Ayari

    Does my memory fail me or was Ayari pencilled in for a loan at the beginning of the season, and with the signings of Weiffer and O’Riley joining Baleba, Hinshelwood and Milner (remember him?) it seemed as though game time would be limited. 4 of those 5 have had lengthy injury lay offs and...

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk.

    I don’t think the partnership of JP and Webster has done Dunk any favours, we got a little insight of what could be before it was cruelly snatched away.

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk.

    Do you believe Dunk is part of the long term plan?

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk.

    He may ‘only’ be 33 but he’s never been blessed with pace and is only to continue to get slower, the style of football we play is exposing him constantly to sprint races which he can’t compete in. Today he had to a lot of heavy lifting having two midfielders either side of him and losing his...

    [Albion] Who do you blame, today?

    Ah, Gruda, what a curious player, obviously talented but absolutely zero output. Weird.

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk.

    You could see the look of terror on his face each time Leicester knocked a ball over the top or down the side of the centre backs. I’m going to be heartbroken when Dunk hangs up his boots but it’s not pleasant watching him struggle. Father Time catches up with everyone eventually.

    [Albion] Who do you blame, today?

    I witnessed Dunk organising today, I also witnessed him looking like he was playing for Leicester.

    [Albion] The Terrace/ticket office bottleneck

    I’ve convinced myself, with zero evidence, that The Terrace is a dummy run, if it happens to be successful then the club will build another larger fan zone opposite the East Stand where the hotel was due to go.

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk.

    When you have 2 centre backs split by 1 attacker the responsibility is on the defender who can see the whole picture to communicate, if Mateta moves onto JP’s shoulder Dunk should be communicating, if JP was to turn around to look for Mateta he would leave his blindside vulnerable for Mateta to...

    [Albion] Fab OUT

    I suspect the club would have loved to be able to recruit a Pascal regen, but sadly football doesn’t work that way. I personally, and probably wrongly believe that Gruda is the heir apparent to Groß but until he stops running into blind alleys and starts using the ball properly we’ll all be...

    [Albion] Fab OUT

    That’s an incredibly basic reply, few teams have a player who can provide the same output as Groß, it was inevitable that he’d be missed and exceptionally hard to replace.

    [Albion] Fab OUT

    Top 6 easily, so we must have a squad that is far superior to at least two from Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Villa, Forest or Newcastle? Which two are you picking?

    [Albion] Lewis Dunk.

    I think, excluding Pervis, they were all a bit lacking, but leaving Mateta unchallenged to do his thing didn’t look great.
