What a legend.

Suffering since 1978.

Thought Charlie also made a difference when he came on. Kept Blackburn occupied hence them not getting onto us as many teams do when we are protecting a lead.

Albert different class


Dykes single-handedly tied up the two centre halves in last 20, running left to right closing down and stopping them stepping out easily with the ball.

Let's be honest here, Austin did none of the above.

I thought taking him off was the right move. He had just started to fade, we had our goal and I thought it made sense to bring on Kakay to shore it up.


and Kakay did an excellent defensive job when he came in

That second half performance was a pleasure to watch after what was a tedious first half. MOTM for sure. I joined the standing ovation here in New York when he was subbed off.

I actually don’t have too many qualms with how Warbs & co. have managed him this season. He definitely should have a couple more league starts under his belt, but he brings such positive energy off the bench, and I really want to see him providing that similar form later in the season, which I don’t think can happen if he’s starting every week. Think he’ll be a very important component of we’re to make a promotion push.

I don't go with that at all. So many games have been crying out for him this season and Warburton has just left him on the bench. He doesn't have to play 90 minutes twice a week, but he should play, he adds so much every time he comes on and the upgrade on Odubajo is enormous.
He hasn't had any minutes since he came on as a sub against Birmingham.


We're 5th.

Obvious MotM. Dragged that game out of the Championship gutter. It was dying.

He’s far better than Moses and Kakay going forward. No worse, if not better, then Moses defensively.

Against the weaker teams like post start him.

I’d still like us to switch to a 4231 and ditch a centre half for a central midfielder, but I’d still play Adomah at right back against the weaker teams. The likes of Ball and Amos can cover and he’ll be a nightmare to handle coming from that deep.

Anyway, too performance. Superb technical ability. Give him more minutes!


I wish it was as simple as just starting him again on Saturday because we’re playing Peterborough. It’ll surely depend upon whether Albert can play two games in a short space of time at his age and that’ll come down to sports science.

Hopefully he can but don’t be surprised if he doesn’t start on Saturday.

And to think that Tony Mowbray had supposedly identified a weakness down our right side
And planned to exploit the gap between our right back and Dickie

Well have a big old dose of Uncle Albert you f*cking dinosaur and see how you deal with that !

After all that running last night I’d be surprised if he can even walk this morning.

Albert I salute you sir. You played with a passion and desire of a fan but much more skill obviously. Your contribution to that victory was immense. Thank you

Some of those moves he pulled - sublime.


He pulled an insane 360 rotation towards the end to skin their LB.

The other thing he regularly does is to stop completely for a while with his foot on the ball. He's kind of going "Come on. Who's next for a bit of shaming?". LOL.

Adel-esque.

I think I’d rather save him up for the Sunderland game in the cup, so probably have him on the bench against Peterborough. There might be some tired legs around by next Tuesday.

Wonder is the Offish could put together a compilation of Alberts best bits from last night!... when they've got a spare 10 mins :)

Every player we have gives his all, we have a good squad which we can change about. Everyone plays the best they can, I won't knock any players unless I feel they are not giving it 100%. As for Uncle, superb, he had a great night, I'll leave the team selections to MW. We don't know the reasons why Uncle doesn't start every week.

That was right in front of me, could not believe he did it right on the touchline.

It's being so happy that keeps me going.

Just what I was thinking - his 2nd 45 is the kind of stuff we used to see from Adel. I was just waiting for him to pull out the rainbow flick :-D. He may well have if he'd stayed on till the end..

Second the hopeful call for an uncs highlights reel from last night. Fingers crossed the media team finds a bit of time!

It was kinda strange. Once Albert got on his bike they couldn't cope with him. You know how we are always saying he and Chaz should be on the pitch at the same time and I felt he should have been introduced 5 minutes earlier when Adomah was totally on fire. Anyway, Austin was no sooner on than Adomah got away down the right yet again, and I thought 'this is it, one sublime cross and Austin will bury it'. Instead, he tried to play Chair in down the right side of the box and overhit it. So they were on the pitch 15/20 mins or so together but unfortunately there were no more crosses before he came off. I was hoping Adomah would provide one assist for Charlie, firstly to win the game of course, but also to prove to Warburton that it is a viable option.

I thought we were talking about Adomah and the best way of using him? That was his first league start of the season., wasn't it? Obviously you don't feel we would be improved by him having more minutes

Nope. If he can play like that twice a week then I’m all for it.

Crikey everybody’s a bit aggy today. Must be the full moon!

Indeed, not sure how some turn a thread praising Albert for his MOTM performance, into (yet another) dig at Charlie?
