[Albion] Webster

[Icy Gull]

I don't disagree with you, l think he's fine when he plays. The problem is that the alternative us to play Levi Colwill, but again he seems to be hugely injury prone, plus of course that as things stand, he will be gone come the end of the season.

That leaves us with Jan Paul Van Hecke, who isn't ready to stake a place for making Premier League starts yet on a regular basis.

Colwill has had the one, admittedly long term, injury but how does that make him HUGELY injury prone?

 

[hans kraay fan club]

He was injured for a while before coming off. Maybe that affected his performance.

he seemed to tweak his hamstring stretching to attempt the block for Bamford’s goal. Struggled from then on, and particularly in the second half. Madness that he didn’t come off sooner.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Thought he had a poor game against Leeds, not helped by the fact he should've been brought off 15 mins before he was. Good news that he isn't badly injured again though.

It wasn't even a long term injury. He's missed about 6 weeks of football and 8 games. That is relatively short term.

Feels like forever to me

 

[Mancgull]

I think he was suffering from cramp and so no issue re fitness. Some misplaced passes at Leeds but a great tackle towards the end which may have saved us a point.
Losing that game would have been gutting!

 

[AlbionBro]

I hope he Is fit for the Palace match, because we need some passion and understanding of this match. Of course it would be great if we could just play our type of game, but I suspect they will come at us hard.

 

[Triggaaar]

I dont think he’ll play against palace. I wonder if it’ll be Van Hecke or Colwill?

I could play centre back against Palace and we'd still be favourites

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Unrivalled in Europe? . . . crikey that's taking it a bit far.

Europe starts at Calais. Something something something.

 

[Weststander]

Colwill’s the real deal, belying his age and inexperience.

Clearly better than Webster imho.

Dunk to me seems to cover a couple of big errors by Webster per game, usually Webster naively selling himself around the half way line.

Hubris of the year award. See you late on, Wednesday evening, where either I shall metaphorically do what Cartman always demands, as we celebrate a clean sheet and win, or I expect you to be bathed, oiled and taking both knees.

 

[Triggaaar]

Hubris of the year award.

Not at all, I'm old and I wasn't much good when I was young, but we'd be favourites with 10 men.

 

[peterward]

No update but he didn't half look out of sorts playing De Zerbiball, on Saturday.

I'll admit I have had moments wondering about Websters future.
The fella is a top EPL centre back, but is he a De Zerbi centre back?

We've got Colwill till season end, might as well use him...... and whilst 1 swallow doesnt make a summer, I thought Van Hecke was really good in the cup game away to Stoke. Confident he could step up.

 

[zefarelly]

Websters brilliant on his day, but he's made of lidl bog roll and 70's subbuteo plastic . Also seems to take as long to get up to speed after repair as an asthmatic paddle steamer.

VH seemed ok when he came on . . . COlwills great, but not match fit.

If his glues not gone off, possibly General Van-der-shitehouse with Dunk on Wed? LAMptey as RWB . . . Formation As we played against Liverpool 2-4-4.

 

[Mackenzie]

I read on their site that only three of their players would get into our team, Guhei, Andersen and Guiata. That would mean that they rate those three above Dunk, Colwill and Sanchez! I can’t see that being right. Would those three really improve our team?

 

[Farehamseagull]

Watching the Leeds highlights again, that was a brilliant pass by Webster through the lines to Gross that led to the first goal. RDZ would have loved that.

 

[GT49er]

New manager - making his mark. Some favourites and 'first name on the team sheet' types will go. Trossard (although he didn't appear t be actually pushed put, but qute possibly he didn't like RDZ or his methods - seems happy enough now anyway) has gone. Webster next?

Maybe Sanchez come the summer? I'd be disappointed - but if what RDZ does works, I guess I'd get over it.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

He didn't have a great game on the ball on Saturday, gave it away cheaply multiple times. He was outstanding under Potter, less so under De Zerbi.

Which just goes to show how good Dunk is. Outstanding under Hughton, outstanding under Potter, outstanding under De Zerbi.

Yes Dunk's ability to play whatever damn style the manager needs or wants is incredible. March and Gross are similar in that respect as well.
I have faith Webster will come good. Maybe he just needs a full pre-season and not to be interrupted by injuries.

Good player, but I’m not convinced he’ll be here next season.
I just hope, for his sake, that he can stay fit.
