Whelan serves no purpose in this circumstance. Switch him with hotlips, push jack into the hole (even though they’re not leaving one), and give it 15mins.
If still no improvement, switch Albert for Kodjia or Keinan

Our 4 wide players are a quartet of c***s, but it's been like that for much of the season. Absolutely fuck all coming in from wide, Albion know they're shit and know they can afford to give them space rather than others so yes, they've done their homework.

El Ghazi been good? Lots of good runs down the right. Final ball been non existant but it's been like that all season.

Adomah needs to be hooked, hardly done anything.

This team have come back so many times this season, we can do it again, let's not start calling the same players that won 10 in a row c***s and rubbish because we've conceded a sloppy goal.

We aren't being outplayed, we aren't disorganised, we aren't lacking effort.

Back the boys.

This for me

Hear, hear.

They're doing a good job on Jack and SJM, we need to work out how to get them into the game more.

Adomah and Whelan are both a waste of a shirt in a game like this with lots of possession and no room in their half.

If you take Whelan out their front 2 will see more of the ball.
Conor will move the ball a bit quicker and gives us dead ball options.

Not sure we are watching same game , el ghazi is causing them plenty of trouble

Yup but very little end product. We predictably push the ball out wide and take an age to get it in the box, bread and butter for the Albion defence. We need to have more options, ideally Jack and SJM running through the middle.
