0-3! Albion are mince.

Interesting to see how Spurs use Doherty, I'm guessing the same as they used Aurier. Which seeing as he invariably lacks any application defensively and lacks Aurier's pace to recover, it should hopefully be a complete disaster.

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

3 nil Leicester, without looking particularly impressive. It was always going to be tough season to go up with the short break but Albion are going to really struggle here unless they pull something out the bag.

As DW has said Albion need at least 3 players to stand any chance even then it’ll be a struggle.

 

[Tony Towner]

I think this is where not having fans hurts you. They've been outclassed so probably didn't make a difference in the end, but first game of the season and all that

 

[jd1981]

Early days to make a judgement but I’m right in thinking that’s about as best a side as Albion can field?
Only chance they’ve got is to revert to very pragmatic football, with the 3 CD they’ve got playing 3 at the back is a disaster waiting to happen.

 

[Sedgley Wolf]

So are Albion just doing a Norwich then, basically? I.e take the money and run?

They’d have lost comfortably regardless of that I think some players way way out their depth Bartley, O’Shea, Robinson, Sawyers looked lost.

I'm not sure on their hashtag #albionfamily its either a wonderful acknowledgment to their unique family lineage or its a naive over sight.

Did I hear a commentator or pundit say that 36 year old, turns like a tanker, Branislav Ivanovic was going to be offered something?

They are signing him as a centre half.

That’s a desperation signing if you ask me

He's Serbian. Bilic will use him as a crutch on the pitch. At 46 he'll be better than any of their centre halves today

 

[AndyWolves]

No idea which way Spurs v Everton will go

I think I'm going spurs though

 

[Boozad]

Richarlison lol

 

[prawnking]

£50m you gotta score that or cross it ffs haha

 

[prawnking]

Doc unlucky not to score

 

[HanDoJin]

God Richarlison is pony sometimes. Usually even.

 

[Banjo]

Everton finally capitalise after a few good chances. Great header from DCL.

 

[Freddeno]

think we will finish above spurs this year at least if they dont strengthen

Yeah they look poor. You'd only have Son and Kane in our team.
