The FIFA Peace Prize winner speaks…

@DanNash86 @WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 In fact in his first proper transfer window he released Mulumbu because he felt he wasn’t reliable and calm enough to play a significant role in his midfield

@DanNash86 @WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 Let’s say he decides to become a mini Pulis. Fair enough full respect if that’s his way. Pulis always made sure his midfield had a calming head that could put there foot on the ball and dictate play. Whitehead Whelan and Fletcher for us all were more than just ball winners..

Both teams left it all out there. Unfortunately what they had to offer was absolute dirge. Some of the simple passes in that game 🤦🏼‍♂️🤦🏼‍♂️

I may be reading too much into it but is it concerning wba have announced a delay on the tickets for the final game against Wednesday considering their issues?

@BRFC1875_ @malstar79 Every fan base has them. For the most part the Blackburn fans we spoke to and the staff at the pubs we dealt with were just lovely working class people just getting on with life and supporting their team.

@malstar79 feels like they go to just give it infront of away and not watch the game, gives our fanbase a bad name

Some proper weirdos go into the Jack Walker end near the away fans. 😳 #Rovers

@WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 @DanNash86 Then in my opinion if your midfield keeps disappearing the moment they are pressed then nothing changes.

@Nik_Ader @DickLaurent96 @DanNash86 It’s a low bar but he’s better technically than the other 2, unfortunately we haven’t got a competent goalscorer and only one natural wide player come the summer as well as a huge problem between the sticks. As I said, I hope they pull a rabbit but CM is low on their priorities.

@WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 @DanNash86 I’m not a huge Mowatt fan either. It was a role I was pretty clear last summer that I felt we were bottom half in standard and nothing about any of them has convinced me otherwise since

@Nik_Ader @DickLaurent96 @DanNash86 We’ve got a better player in Mowatt, he can’t move though. As I said, the club has a lot of replacing to do, as well as a position at the top of the shop to make, we’ve got 4 starting centre midfielders under contract though. They can’t do everything overnight

@DanNash86 @WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 Agreed on the 10

@Nik_Ader @WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 I’m not sure Price is capable of that. Would happily be proven wrong however. Perhaps he could add some craft to the graft in a 3 man midfield with JM & OD however, in a 4-3-3. I don’t ever want to see the lad as a 10 again though. In possession he needs to improve a lot.

@WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 @DanNash86 I go on a lot with the national team about how I feel that it’s not managers holding us back but the actual DNA of English football and nowhere can this be seen more in our love for players like Molumby. Better an idiot that runs 2000m than a clever player that runs 100m

@WanchopePaulo @DickLaurent96 @DanNash86 I said it last year that if I could I would have put Price in the centre of midfield (not in attack or out wide) and said I want you to be the one who controls us. Switch play, through balls, put your foot on it and slow it down when we are under pressure like Greening0708 era

It was because our central midfield has all the control toddler on acid in a toy shop, our best technical player gave away more balls than a gigolo, our left back was running in quick sand and our hold up forward treated the ball like he had a trampoline instead of feet.

Our best player from the last 18 months that many felt was destined for the Prem is actually a bit part player in a play off team. So what standard does that mean the others actually were. Today WAS a dreadful quality game but that had jack shit to do with management…

I think some wba fans really need to wake up and realise the actual quality of this team. They aren’t as many claimed last summer a play off challenging team being held back by poor management they are a lower table squad…

@suttonbaggie @wbaa_j Only thing I possibly would have considered is finding a way of getting Styles back to left back because Taylor in the second half was struggling (bar one very good tackle) against their right midfield when they matched us up

@wbaa_j If you’re talking in-game…. Yes one. Replacing a striker for a striker. The rest of the bench I wouldn’t touch in such an important no-lose game. Mozza knows his players inside out. Thats for all to see.

State of this comment! Squad is so thin. He knows who he can trust. People like this should listen to the manager & players in interviews. A game we couldn’t lose. We didn’t. £7k or 500 fans it doesn’t matter. League table most important. We absolutely looked after ourselves

And so when we get put under the slightest pressure we become a slightly less cohesive version of a pinball machine.

Even by the low bar ofEnglish standards, Albions lack of composure all over the pitch is almost funny at times. Our strikers hit the ball rather than strike it, our midfielders move the ball rather than pass it and run around with it rather than dribble it. Its just so poor…

@nathrover1985 @wbaa_j 1) he’s not shit anyone saying so is daft he’s technically our best player but he had an absolute stinker today 2) 99% of fans weren’t arsed that MON played him in that friendly but I would have been pissed off (not with MON though) if he’d got injured in it

@wbaa_j You serious ? The amount of shite we got over MON playing him for 45 mins in an international game for fans to say his shite 😂😂😂😂😂

isaac price is the worst player at the club

@_the_a_bis There’s a great unplugged with Alicia Keys as well that sometimes gets shown. Absolutely amazing

I didn’t even know MTV was still a channel these days but I’m sat here eating mini eggs watching Nirvana I plugged. Absolute top tier.
