Caught some of the game last night, have to say Baggies looked very good but then equally Blades looked very bad.
Seems that Ismael has got them playing Barnsleyball with the frenetic high press, but given the better quality players he now has, it can be a lot more effective. If they can keep that up for all 46 games then it's most likely they will be going straight back up.
Blades looked all over the shop and barring a miracle I don't think they will be bothering the top spots. Robinson still looked pretty good at the back (forgot he had moved there); Freeman came on late as a sub and showed some nice touches but what a waste of a talent. Can we tempt him back??
Nice as well to see Furlong have a very solid game and get the MOTM award too.

Be interesting to see if their ageing squad can maintain the Barnsleyball approach all season in this league. Also looks like the Blades keeper had a bit of a mare. |  |

This is worrying as they will look for a keeper now that they have sold theirs and can see the replacement is crap.
They could go after Dieng. I hope we get £8m for him. |  |

Don't think I would want Freeman back he kinda plays Jojo role and so would we need him.
Rather if we could tempt a returnee it would be Hugill or Wells
Think Wells would score quite a few in this team..... but don't think we will get either and more to the point would Warbs want either.
I'm not a great Dykes fan but the lad as scored 2 in 3 and you can't knock that.
Just worry if he was carrying a knock last night will Chaz be ready for 90mins | | | |

I think Freeman would be playing further ahead as an option alongside Chair or Willock. Anyway, very unlikely that will happen! | |

Sheff U look to me in danger of doing a Sunderland and dropping straight from the Prem through to League One. They were a shambles last night. |  |

Maybe, but there's just as much chance of them turning it around and getting promoted. 43 games later the league table won't look anything like how it does now. |  | | |

Ramsdale is going for £30m and you hope we get £8m for Dieng. I don't understand that
Genuinely if it was a hypothetical choice between us having Dieng or Ramsdale for the next 4 years on the same wages then losing them on a free... I would choose Seny over Ramsdale no question
I think he's a better keeper.
So don't understand you hope we get around 1/4 the value that Ramsdale goes for | | | |

It IS early days but I'd be slightly worried if I was a fan. They gave out some stats last night for them and they are currently 24th out of 24 in goals scored (yet to score), shots on target (just five) and pass completion. That losing mentality from last season has hung over to this season.
One positive for them is that in Jokanovic they have a proven manager who has twice got teams promoted from this division but he has a big job to turn them around. | |

I'm not surprised at their lack of success in front of goal at all, it has been well flagged. They simply don't have goalscoring forwards. In 2019/20, they scored 39 goals in the Premier League, but still managed to secure a mid table position as their defence was excellent. They only scored 20 league goals last season.
What really surprised me was to see them among the favourites to score the most goals in the Championship this season. We were about 20/1 and are now down to about 12/1. I don't know whether you can do each way betting on that market. |  | | |
