Fotunately, WBA still aren't really showing any real quality in that final 3rd. We would be being hammered in the Prem.
But winning by two or three in League One.

I was unsure of Muric the first 5-6 games and he still scares me but he's been awesome today.

Surely them chasing the game benefits us now. They look like they’ve got a goal in them so we need a couple more.

Get to half time and would take Maatsen off, Vito back to LB and Benson on.

If the keeper gets the minutest of touches on the ball then it's not a penalty ?

Glad we don't have VAR.

2 on 2 down our right. Roberts tells Vitinho to go with the runner, asleep. We are lucky to get away with that one.

Few players way too sloppy tonight. Vitinho, Maatsen, Roberts miles off it.

Both fullbacks defensively absent. Maatsen looks okay going forward but poor at the back. Roberts may as well have not turned up Vitinho is having to do tons of defensive work.

Would like to think the fans getting behind him has helped his confidence. Agree though looking excellent.

I like to think that as our defense gets used to the positions VK’s attack will leave them in, they will become more solid.

Nevertheless, we would have to upgrade significantly if we got promoted.

If we’re honest we shouldn’t be winning this with how poor we’ve been and some of West Brom’s chances

Would agree with that.
We need changes our defence is getting torn apart on both flanks and we can't keep the ball in midfield.

Agree completely.

Said before the game Vitinho at right wing doesn’t work.

I’d be considering JBG on there.
