Comrade 86 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 A few choices words from the Baggies, before during and after tonight’s hammering at the hands of the Mighty Rams. Mostly pretty reasonable to be fair and some really quite insightful and telling. I've been a bit one-eyed with the selected quotes but on a night like tonight, we only want to hear how wonderful we are and not them moaning about how rubbish they and 'Big Dave are, right? BEFORE We are favourites for the league, third at the moment, top scorers and at home If we play as we have been doing at home, then we can win comfortably. Derby as of 22nd October have the 14th best away record in the league. Albion have the 2nd best home record in the league, beaten only by Wigan who haven’t lost a game at home. Obviously not a forgone conclusion but it suggests a decent chance of a home win. This will be a tough game probably our hardest of the season so far they are starting to click under Lampard. At home we are a match for anyone so no reason why we can't turn these over. DURING We’re getting pasted here What the hell is going on? We just can’t cope with Lawrence and Wilson Theyve got our Midfielders completely shut down, theyre overlapping on the wings and wreaking havoc as a result. Derby have given us a schooling tonight Made us look League 2 We only need 4 goals. Tosin has been the best of the 3 centre backs (not that that's difficult). Field has been more positive than Brunt, but they have been overrun by Derby's much younger, more energetic and technically gifted midfielders. Lampard has never been a manager before, but he has got his team working together. We only need to score 5 It could have been 8-3 to derby AFTER (Heavily edited selection - they're not terribly pleased!) That midfield is seriously lacking, Derby’s midfield was class tonight Derby had an old squad similar to us and have changed there style with a high pressing game. No pressure on them young lads at all. Hats off to them tonight Holy smokes, Derby were good tonight. Masterclass on how to control a game without possession. The rest was all a bit yadda, yadda, yadda but hopefully this makes good reading for Rams fans. COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I especially liked, "The question Derby fans must be asking is 'Gary Who?' We've essentially paid Lampard's salary for them. Sickening." Proper chuckles!

We've had Davies and Huddlestone out for a good month or 2, Evans got injured on his league debut over 2 months ago and still isn't back, Wilson missed around a month, Marriott took months to get up to full fitness and then we've had minor injuries here and there to the likes of Bryson, Johnson, Malone and Bennett and the suspension for Lawrence. I think it's fair to say he's not had the easiest of times with injuries and suspensions so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My particular favourite was in reply to the gomer who suggested they were only 3 wins from top: Indeed, however from 14 games we have just 4 wins. We should have those 3 in another 12 games or so.

ram1964 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Love reading outside view of our club,often puts things in prospective when reading about their own opinions of how well they are coping. One thing for sure, nobody grabbing this league by the scruff of the neck like wolves last year and I think we will continue to improve giving us a great chance for the autos. Thought Leeds would have done better after their performance against us, and the Boro seen to blow got and cold. Just hope the usual slip in Jan doesn't happen as the norm and we can continue to push on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Living in the East End all my West Ham pals call him Lumplard. He did waddle around a bit in his younger days, but then became svelte once the sports science professionals took over the game. Part of the work ethic he's instilling in the rest of them - he absolutely maximized his (not inconsiderable) ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends what you class as awful performances? You don't finish in the play offs after a season of awful performances. We beat Boro 3-0 at their place last year, is anything less than that going to be classed as awful? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it was mostly awful, dire, uninspiring football. I didnt go go to Boro last season so cant really comment on that particular game, because I’d pretty much had enough of Rowett football by then.
