Is it to early to dream ??
12 points clear of 3rd place already ...
No doubt I will be taking all the plaudits as I swore never to predict them to win in the prediction League and it's working a treat

I thought it was 10 clear?

Ok I won't dream then it's only 10

Just seen the highlights on the Sky Sports Youtube page and holy testicles we look good. Our midfield is sublime and HRK looks like a proper striker now. He’s not the long term answer but he’s proving why he was given a new contract.
In the summer I was unsure of us signing Pereira because I’d seen him at Nürnberg and he looked raw and inconsistent but he was playing on the right and left wings then. Now Bilic has him central and he looks like a completely different player.
10 clear of Fulham in 3rd and Bristol City in 4th is incredible considering a few months ago we were only in the play-offs.

"Just like watching Brazil".
Take a bow, Slaven: every player seems to get into the right positions to receive the ball from team-mates. I know it's easier v EFL opponents and the beer's making me exaggerate a little* , but we were like Barca (Iniesta/Messi/Xavi) at making football look easy.
* OK, a lot!

Overtook Leeds on the better goal difference today as well.

Yep - we are looking good and, (I keep saying this) I really think we'll get better in the 2nd half of the season as the players gel more.
The confidence is there for all to see, and we look very comfortable and inventive down all the channels.
A very good performance today against a pretty decent team.

Gibbs looks to have torn his hammy
RE: WBA vs Swansea & Wigan - Zinman - 08-12-2019
Just watched it on catch up (4am kick-offs are a pain) and I have to say we look rather good. One hilarious moment on the ESPN commentary before the match. They had a camera shot in the tunnel when the commentator mentioned the "Albion players lining up" - unfortunately the only people lining up in stripes were the mascots - I know we have a relatively young team, but.....

So would Dwight Gayle add to this or confuse matters and knock the formation out of kilter.
In SB we trust. He would only add to his squad I am sure.
