West Brom - Post Match

[Fredo]

I've been supportive of Luis this season. I love him to bits but his moaning doesn't help. Some situations when he could show awareness after putting himself into great positions, he just is too selfish. Agger went ballistic at him on one occasion. He tried to score in an impossible angle. Sorry, but he loses us games.

It's the ****ing SHAGGY curse again

If it was the Shaggy curse we'd have got a draw, this is something worse

[Mr Darko]

Why so upset? Brom are a formidable side. If you only take into account the first half then it was a draw and a draw against a strong side isn't bad.

Don't see why we should blame Kenny for that. It was clearly the players fault. We created lots of chances but couldn't put em away. Should Kenny really take the blame?

For player's poor mentality, their fragile confidence and their lack of intent and fluidity, yes.

[MrMichael]

****ing disgusting. Kenny should be ashamed the money he has spent on the **** playing for us. Sick to my back teeth of seeing the same **** week in week out. The last 5 to 10 minutes our players were just jogging round the pitch looking like they had given up.

They looked like they'd given up in the last few minutes, but personally I can understand how that happens after they've spent the previous 80 mins doing everything other than scoring.

Thing is, we're not ****. We're just **** at winning. Nobody could ever watch that game, same as the Villa one the other week, and say we weren't obviously the better side. So I don't really think the performances are "****ing disgusting", its just the results that are seriously disappointing.

I think Kennys gone, he knows it, the players know it, and its about the FA Cup and giving him a good send off. I'd stake my house on it.

Think you could well be right, that's pretty much my feeling too.

Not Kenny's fault that we couldn't hit a cows arse. Another game that's summed up our season.

Cursed.

Only 7 teams have picked up less points at home than us, and only 4 have less home wins.

[little dave hedgehog]

undoubtedly we need a forward who can finish his chances, but when that fails, i think we really miss a player with a cool head who can make astute decisions in possession. i think our youngsters and bellamy get pissed off too easily and start doing stupid things with the ball that lead to a bunch of missed chances. we need someone who can demand the ball and then play for an assist rather than everyone trying to stick it away from every angle.

Can believe people are attacking Suarez in the match thread

He should pass more..

[Suarez]

You've read the bodge book on motivation

[Fredo]

All 4 goals we have conceeded in the last 3 games have been through individual and fundamental errors by defenders

A finisher would solve a lot of our problems but so would eradicating individual errors

I'm not concerned at these defensive errors at all.

[RichC]

One sodding finisher in the side and things would have been different but we don't have one and we're languishing in sodding 8th place in the league.

Players need to take responsibility for today not Kenny

[Lecter]

If you've a dickie leg or your pain in your arm, the problem is almost always spine related. We have no central midfield lynchpin or even someone that can dictate play, a player with the vision and bravery to create something throughout every match. If we had that everything else would fall into place.

A central midfielder wouldnt have helped with Johnsons bad pass today, nor would it have helpd with Carragher & Aggers **** up last week and it wouldnt have helped with Flanagans short ball and Jones dilly-dallying around at Blackburn

The goals we are conceeding are quite literally being gifted to the opposition

Yes prior to that I would blame the midfield and the lack of protection but not in the last few ggoals conceeded in the last few games
