If we count cup goals then that puts Elyounoussi just one goal behind Broja, give the level of esteem that Elyounoussi was held in Saints fans, that could put things in a little perspective.
Personally I judge people on League games these days, not cup games that usually have weakened sides and sometimes like the Newport game that season see big scores |

Thread | 5 Things About West Brom
at 10:11 13 May 2024
1. The atmosphere created by the home supporters in the opening minutes was superb, definitely the best home support I have seen this season and perhaps the best that i can remember in recent years, we have to match that on Friday evening.
2. The Hawthorns must be one of the easiest ground to reach by road or train, it is right by the M5 and it has a train/tram service from Birmingham city centre only 150 metres from the ground itself.
3. Our fans were also magnificent once they got going
4. Our team has got it's mojo back.
5. My mouth is still burning from the Chicken Tikka I had in the Vine pub after the game |

I find it very interesting that some will glorify someone who spent a short time playing for us and then left without a second thought, indeed didn't actually do that much in the grand scheme of things.
Yet honest players who play for us now are vilified, ridiculed and mocked despite giving a lot more commitment than Broja ever did.
Broja only stopped scoring because we stopped playing to his strengths, perhaps we havent been playing to Mara's strengths, who knows.
If we all put more effort into supporting the players we have instead of those that stayed for a short time and left, perhaps some of those players would play better, just a thought |

That season Che Adams got 1 more goal than Broja, yet never got any plaudits, we struggled to create chances and score that season.
Im surprised that anyone could overate Thierry Small given that he made just one first team appearance that season, the first half against Coventry in the FA Cup |

Im sorry but I dont think RH threw Broja under the bus, in the second half of the season he always had a striker up there with him, usually Che Adams.
Im surprised that you say Che Adams has done little, he has hit 15 League goals only 8 players in the Championship have hit more and 3 of them have hit only 1 more.
Yes there are times when he should have scored and didn't but overall I think he has done a decent job. |

Based on the fact that we have both Che Adams & Adam Armstrong who have scored goals, Broja has played 31 League games for Saints and scored 6 goals, not a great record, at Chelsea he has played 26 & got just 2, at Fulham he has often been an unused sub and has not started a game
Of 14 games he could have played he has managed just 7 appearances all off the bench for just 58 minutes football.
He will make a living in the game in the top flight, but I don't think he will be a big star, he is big and bustling, but can't head a ball, defenders found him out halfway through his time here and knew how to play him and isolate him from play.
I think a lot of it may be down to his attitude |

I agree with you he refused a contract extension and I agree as I said in the article, he was risking a lot if he signed it and then got injured.
But the real issue for Howe was the two games played after the restart in June where he did not play and which both where lost
Howe was enraged by what he saw as the player making himself unavailable and not fulfilling his contract and Bournemouth went down by a single point.
I totally agree with you it was the players prerogative not to sign an extension and leave on July 1st, that wasn't the real crux, |

Yes in season 2021/22 the last full one before he arrived at Hull they finished 19th, he arrived half way through 2022/23 and they ended up 15th so an improvement and this season they finished 7th, good steady year on year improvement in his 18 months in the job.
That is not good enough though, they will probably get in a name manager possibly someone who has just finished playing who will undo all the good work and will leave in a huff moaning about how the players weren't good enough for his coaching methods |

He was still better off form than any of the other options to replace him, especially since we were playing Ipswich.
It was never about dropping KWP though, the week before it was Bednarek dropped |

West Brom should be easier than most as it has the Hawthorns station right next to it, which is 7 minutes from Snow Hill station, you could be there and back in half an hour.
Likewise the designated away pub is just one stop away and a couple of minutes.
It is a pain in the arse when the tickets don't arrive, but it isn't insurmountable, just a drama not a crisis.
I had to pick up mine at Arsenal a few years ago and that was a real pain as the nearest pub is about 15 mins walk away |

Seems he is accepting he is never going to get in the team at Chelsea and is going to leave in the summer, he has barely played for Fulham during his loan spell.
His value has dropped a little over the past couple of years perhaps if we get promoted we could be in for him |
