Firstly I'd just like to say that the away support yesterday from you guys was first class, unfortunately for you though the football wasn't anywhere near as good although I thought Evans in particular looked very impressive and you'll do well to hang on to him.
Berahino has got to be one of the most overrated players ever to have graced the Premier League. If you'd had another forward taking the chances he got presented with, you might have been taking the 3 points yesterday. He had one golden chance that Boruc saved when really he should have scored, and missed two headers by my count. You should have sent him packing to Stoke from that display yesterday.
In the end though it was a game that had 0-0 written all over it and we were somewhat lucky with our goal.
Anyway, looking forward to coming to the Hawthorns for the next game. The fanzone thing you guys have is excellent before the games and it's a cracking away day.
Up the cherries!
Berahino is far from overrated. He was one of the best strikers in the league when he came through. He makes great runs, is two footed and was a good finisher. If you Youtube some of his goals, you'll see exactly what I mean. There's very few strikers with his technique with both feet.
He isn't playing well at present, but it's not helped by the fact we don't have a player who can pick a pass and put him through. If he goes to a side who actually have midfielders who thread a ball, gets his head right and is deployed as an out and out striker; he has the potential be world class. Although he's never going to do it here now, so you're right, we might as well have cashed in...
Overall was a poor game, but the goal was the one moment of quality, so on that basis I guess it was deserved.
