I don't disagree, and hopefully Lampard will get time to work with him. He has the raw talent to be a big star, but he also has a lot to learn.

The problem wasn't the stars leaving, (that's always going to happen) the issue is replacing them with too many league 1 standard players, and youngsters. Dovin and Bassette may well go on to be stars, but both are very inexperienced and raw to stand out at this level at the moment. Not...

Work rate and effort are waayyy above Simms, he also has a bit of aggression and shithousery in him. However he's only just turned 20, and only came to the UK this season, so we shouldn't have to be relying on him as a first choice striker, he's a player we should be developing, and using...

Bassette is in the team purely because Simms has been woeful. But the fact is whoever plays up front gets isolated and suffers from a lack of service. We don't have any midfielder who can carry the ball forward quickly and play the striker in, like Hamer or O'hare did. We are slow in our build...

We havnt adequately replaced Gyokeres, Hamer and O'hare, we've brought in too many young players too soon, and too many league 1 players. Realistically this seasons over (as long as we don't get dragged into a relegation scrap) so we need to be looking at a mini re-build for next season...

Give him a transfer window at least, he's still getting to know the squad, and he's without Wright who makes a big difference. His use of subs is better than MR, and he's dropped Dasilva which is a bonus.

Well we got our usual result from the Hawthorns, and can't say I'm suprised. WB where more clinical in the final third. There's a lot of work for FL to do with this "deck" and hopefully he's learnt something from tonight's performance, which did have it's positives tbf. Collins can't be...

Why does every attempt on goal from Sheaf go over the bar?

Piss poor defending from Thomas and Lats, so fucking easy to dance between them. Game over, time to give game time to Allen and Kitching

Pass of the match from Lats.

We need better delivery from the corners, we've had plenty of set plays but not threatened enough.

Very unlucky to concede to a massive deflection, and that goal has allowed West Brom to sit in and keep a tight defensive formation, and with only 1 up front we need to be patient and try to break them down. I think we need to throw Simms on to partner Bassette at some stage, and maybe take...

Wicked deflection, just our luck.

Damn site more chance of growing football there than Saudi.

Not sure what you meant by "people like you" Do you mean that anyone who just wants to watch a football match is automatically a supporter of tyrannical regimes and wants to see human rights violations? I thought I'd already said that the Saudi world cup was hypocrisy and just about money...

Tbh I'd just like to watch football for the love of football, without politics getting involved, football should be about 90 minutes of self indulgence, of passion and enjoyment/heart break, can't we just have a 90 minute window without politics or religion or whatever poking it's nose in...

But it does highlight the absolute hypocrisy of it all. At the end of the day, money talks, and the games governing body will turn a blind eye to years of human rights abuses, if enough money is involved.

Jesus, of all the people to post this 🤣🤣🤣

I criticised the BBC because they were the example sited in the original post. ( I note that you didn't call out the OP for mentioning them) I'm in no way saying are the only ones pushing this story, but they are the ones being mentioned. I don't have any agenda against the BBC, other...

I think you've managed to miss the point here, as the OP clearly mentioned, the balls were different in Jeff Astles day. But thanks for contributing in your usual insightful manner.
