🕰️ It’s now been 326 mins of football (+ injury time) since Albion last scored a goal. ⚽️ The Baggies have scored just 3️⃣ goals in their last 6️⃣ matches and drawn a blank in 4️⃣ of their last 6️⃣ games! ⁉️ What needs to change? #wba

⏰ That’s the 6th goal Albion have conceded in the last 15 mins of games. 🤯 Only Millwall & Wrexham have conceded more! 4️⃣ It’s also the fourth time a late goal has cost us points this season! 😱 Are we too negative in the latter stages of games? #wba

🥇 Albion play the most accurate passes per match of any team in the Champ. 😱 However we are in the bottom 3 for: xG & big chances created. 🥅 We are also in the bottom 6 for passes completed into the penalty area & touches in the box. ⚽️ Passing without purpose? #wba

Outstanding performance from @AndyfromNewHamp, sadly we can’t say the same about Albion. We have a big chat about what Mason’s style of play is. He certainly isn’t playing “winning football” as promised and it’s hard to understand how he’s trying to achieve that aim. #wba
🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨 🎙️ @CJHall83 is joined by @AndyfromNewHamp to dissect a dismal display! ⁉️ The pair have some big questions for both Ryan Mason and Andrew Nestor, as Albion continue to lack any creativity! #wba 🎧 https://t.co/hHYluLbOUG

✍️ My latest @BBCSport article on how we need to build some momentum during November. 🗓️ Four home games, all against teams in the bottom half, is a big opportunity but things must improve offensively if we are to take advantage of this chance. 🔗 https://t.co/IiYFaHnOUL

Because Price is a goal threat rather than a creator, we need to get a second creative force alongside Mowatt. Collyer could be that player but if he’s not fit for Sat, I’d be tempted to play Styles there as it’s a role he plays well for Hungary! #wba
💬 Ryan Mason said on Saturday that Albion have lost a lot of their creative players from last season. ⚽️ Of the 43 Albion assists last season, players who provided 26 of them no longer play for the club. ⁉️ Who do you believe can fill that void? #wba

@BAGGIEBAIL @AlbionAnalysis @stevel_knievel @ChapmanJ92 A slight difference. We average 0.89xG per away game And we average 1.2xG per home game. So slightly better at home but still quite low in both cases.

Probably GC’s best performance since Stoke & besides one shot in the first half - he nullified Jaden till he had to be subbed. Diakite was a beast in the middle but only 2 of his 33 passes were into the final third. He’s so good defensively but slows us down in attack. #wba
🛡️ Two solid defensive displays on an, otherwise, depressing afternoon. 🇺🇸 George Campbell 💯 of tackles won 🥇 Most clearances 🛑 Most duels won 🇲🇱 Ousmane Diakite 💯 of duels won 🥇 Most ball recoveries of any outfield player 🛑 Most interceptions #wba

We discuss this on the pod but the problem seems a combo of things. Mason’s tactics contribute and the long ball stuff on Saturday made no real sense. Not replacing creative players & our right side was an error! Injuries have not helped. Work to do this week & in Jan! #wba
🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨 🚙 @CJHall83 & his new regular co-host @ChapmanJ92 pick the bones out of a dismal week on the road. ⁉️ They consider Albion’s awful chance creation record and ask, what can we do to score more goals? 🎧 https://t.co/rxFOhj9Ucs

We have the 5th best xG against but the 3rd worst xG for! It’s clear what our strengths and weaknesses are. Our sumner business was weighted toward the defence & we’ve had injuries in attack so there’s reasons for this but we still have to improve drastically in attack! #wba
⚽️ Albion are currently averaging 1.04xG per game. 🥅 Over a full season this would see us create enough chances to score 48 goals 🤯 That’s the same number of goals as bottom club Cardiff scored last season! ⁉️ Are Albion relying too much on worldies at the moment? #wba

Sums it up. 1st half Watford were as toothless as us. 2nd they changed things & we didn’t respond. Players looked shellshocked & didn’t match Watford’s desire. RM didn’t react till too late. And why when Dike was on did we constantly turn down chances to cross? Poor! #wba
🥅 In the 1st half tonight Albion didn’t have a single shot from inside the box & only had 3 touches in the Watford penalty area. ⚽️ In the 2nd, Watford had twice as many shots as Albion despite the Baggies seeing twice as much of the ball ⁉️ What went wrong tonight? #wba

This makes me feel old given I worked this game. A person has been born and has almost reached the age to be able to legally drink since we last won there! 🤯 #wba
🐝 Albion’s last away win at Watford came almost 18-years ago, on the 7 Nov 2007. ⚽️ Goals from Miller, Phillips and Albrechtsen gave Albion a resounding 3-0 win that day. ⁉️ Will our wait for a win in Watford end tonight? #wba

✍️ @BBCSport article number two out 🇧🇷 This week I discuss our Irish winger who is showing off his Brazilian flair. 💰 If he keeps this up, how long before we have to fend off more admirers? #wba
