[Albion] Albion v Brentford Official thing ********

[SweatyMexican]

How was Pedro playing the championship. Incredible talent.

 

[Simster]

You going to be saying that when one of our key players ends up with a broken leg tonight?

They're literally Pulis's Stoke team reincarnated, but because they've got foreign players and a foreign manager they don't get the same grief for it. Good club with good fans but they're a f***ing dreadful side.

Absolute nonsense. Dreadful sides don't finish where they finished last season.

And were a stoppage time penalty away from taking six points off us FFS.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I won't comment on a players performance too harshly when it's a friendly.
There is a couple of players who are playing well within their limits, but I can see once the season starts, they'll have the bit between their teeth.
having said that, I want our defence to buck up a bit!

 

[Beach Hut]

Same old from us, which is nice

 

[Eric the meek]

Who would have thought that last season, a sizeable crowd were shouting for a striker, while now, we have

Pedro, Adingra, Mitoma, Ferguson, Undav, Welbeck.

Now we just need to squeeze them all in.

 

[7:18]

From what I’ve seen of Pedro, Dahoud, Adingra - and what I know of Milner - I’m VERY happy with our summer business so far. Not convinced we need that much now.

Verbruggen?

Burnley and Stoke both played in Europe for a season playing like this

 

[London Irish]

Hell of a bonus Adingra is proving, no wonder Sarmiento has been loaned. His goal tonight I thought had shades of the famous Michael Owen one against Argentina

 

[Brian Fantana]

A back up LB/LWB and RB/RWB would be a nice bonus to finish things off. The pedant in me wants to point out that Adringra was already our player!

 

[Farehamseagull]

You don’t want to overdo it, but Henry was exactly who came to mind for me too.

Something about how he carries himself and the ball. His balance and turn of pace.

Really, really exciting.

I really am overdoing it now as it his peak, he was the best striker ever, but he actually reminds me of his compatriot R9 more than Henry.

Obviously I’m not saying he’s good as him (yet!) but definite similarities with the way he holds off defenders and runs with the ball.

I’m astonished at how good he looks.

 

[Eggman]

I can't understand what he was doing at Watford in the Championship really. You'd have thought a bigger club than us would have snapped him up as soon as Watford went down. Unbelievable that we got him a full season later imo.

This. Was it not true Newcastle and Milan were also interested?

Newcastle may well have had him take a medical, they got so close. But the temptation to divert the £30m cash plus another £40m on Isak was just too much.

The irony of course is that by the end of next year, a £70m+ valuation is very possible for JP.

Which only means they weren't dreadful sides either.

My definition of a dreadful side is one that doesn't win many football matches and usually loses quite heavily. What's your definition?

 

[Beach Hut]

Yay, the arrival of Evan

 

[Farehamseagull]

Oh FFS, they’re doing the board for every substitution again!

 

[BevBHA]

This. Was it not true Newcastle and Milan were also interested?

He almost signed for Newcastle but they pulled the plug at the last minute

Fullbacks.

I’m still a little worried about ate depth in fullbacks.

 

[Farehamseagull]

England’s number 1!

 

[London Irish]

Brentford creating lot of chances

 

[BHA Fan93]

The rise of JSteele is incredible
