He has been “looked after properly” by opposition after that scoring run so now it’s up to him to work around that. Great players do ordinary players can’t. Let’s see how good he is?
The fact that Albert has been closed down has allowed space to open up for other players. It's the beauty of having lots of options when playing well as a team. I'm sure Snoddy or Grealish will get it soon which will create opportunities for Albert or someone else.

Let’s see how good he is?I think he may feel more comfortable on the right or down the centre than out on the left, which I believe is his weakest side, and that's why he is struggling with the extra attention he is now getting

So he’s done it before.
I'm sure he looked over at Bruce as he was coming off and mouthed 'prick'. He didn't look happy at being subbed, which is fair enough.

Wouldn't surprise me if he's carrying a few knocks.

So he’s done it before.He has scored goals coming in from the left hand side and looks pretty comfortable out there. My one gripe about it is that in games like Tuesday where Adomah and Snodgrass don't get too much joy, Bruce doesn't try switching them over for periods of the game. I'm sure opposition defenders are instructed before games to "show them the line" and not let them come inside on their stronger foot, so swapping them over periodically would just change things a bit.
