Re: West Brom v Clarets Match thread

Well, we might not have scored, but we look a lot more of a threat than in recent games. I did say before K O that I liked this lineup.

Let's hope the second half isn't a repeat of the Millwall game. I don't think it will be.

Re: West Brom v Clarets Match thread

Personally, I like this line up. It's very flexible up front, and if one thing doesn't work, it's easy to swap around. Anthony and Koleosho, Sarmiento and Flemming.

More confident tonight than I have been recently.

Tell you what, the posters wanting us to re-sign a 38 yo keeper are making me happy we’re not a fan-owned club. Not if those fans are like you, and know nothing about goalkeeper's longevity. He was good enough to play for Utd at least twice last season. I did also say "If only as goalkeeping coach."
