nta786 Posted 17 August, 2014 Share Posted 17 August, 2014 Right, onto our next game, one I can see us winning I hope! Same team as last time for me, except Taider for Davis, and possibly Shane Long for JWP. Anyone know if Gardos is available? Him too then. Hopefully we continue our performance from Liverpool game onto this one! Prediction- 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JxgrSaint Posted 17 August, 2014 Share Posted 17 August, 2014 If we play like we did against Liverpool then I reckon we'll absolutely batter them. Think Gardos said he's out for a couple of weeks so probably won't be available. Might have some new signings too! I'm predicting 4-0: JWP, Tadic and a brace from Pelle!

Wiggles31 Posted 17 August, 2014 Share Posted 17 August, 2014 Fancy a result in this game after the Liverpool game. Same starting line up for me. 2-0 win. This game should be slightly easier for Pelle but what I saw of him in the 2nd half he'll do ok at this level. COYS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saxon Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 Very much looking forward to this! And after the performance on Sunday, what a first home game this could be! COYS! Lets get three points in the bag and obliterate WBA along the way! We could start to build up some serious momentum here! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 Play like we did yesterday, we will win trouble is, WBA are bound to be coming to keep it tight. I would probably start Long in place of davis. same team, other than that thought Skrtl marked Pelle well at Anfield, hope he gets more joy against lesser defenders Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjii Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 Someone would drop JWP?! Said last season I wanted him in the Davis role and still do. More freedom for a brilliant footballer. Forster Clyne Yoshi Fonte Bertrand Wanyama Schneiderlin JWP Tadic Pelle Long With Tadic and Long free to swap wings. Similar performance level and we could destroy WBA. Take nothing for granted in this league but the goal potential is there. That's what I would pick as well. Hopefully Gaston is available too for the bench.

Jack Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 JWP won't be dropped. He had a decent game and his set peices will be vital against a team we're going to have to break down. Pelle didn't get much change out of Lovren and Skrtel, hopefully he'll have more joy against a weaker defence. I'd keep it unchanged, but if there is to be one I wouldn't mind Long for Davis with JWP moving back into Davis' position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trout-Tickler Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 This will be a tough game as West Brom will no doubt come and try to keep things tight. We struggled to break them down last season with only Gaston's great flicked pass opening them up. Need to get support to Pelle much quicker than we did at times yesterday. Would be nice if Long comes back to haunt his old club, pretty sure he scored the winner for Hull when they played West Brom last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david in sweden Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 Want to see a good opening SMS game, after Sunday's disappointment (we were worth at least one point).. BUT. the players (especially the new ones) need to get the atmosphere at SMS. Pelle needs to get at least one goal to get the fans on his side, and we need to see a solid back line (with Gardos) ASAP. We have more than enough midfielders to choose from, and they need to start scoring. Last season Steve Davis managed 2 league goals, Schneiderlin 2 and Ramirez 1. Pitiful when you consider that Fonte, Lovren and Yoshida managed 6 goals between them. Midfielders should look to score 3-4 goals each . An average /good Prem.striker does well to get 10 in a season. .......and Pelle won't be chalking up quite so many (compared to RL - who scored penalties, too).

PhilippineSaint Posted 18 August, 2014 Share Posted 18 August, 2014 Hold your horses here West Brom will park the proverbial bus and we will have to go around it. Which may be a tad more difficult than you lot imagine. I would still expect a win but only 2-1, a brace from Long but a cock up from Forster which allows Boruc to come in the next game. No Bearsy it is not a euphanism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus he was in training with Saints last week, so a month does seem a long time for him to return to games. The Saints interviews last week suggested it would be one or two weeks.
