‘Different class at times’ – West Brom Super Fans pick Saint and Sinner from 1-0 loss v Stoke

This is part of a regular series from our panel of West Brom Super Fans. Each week, our Super Fans will deliver their verdicts on the biggest talking points and news stories around The Hawthorns.

West Brom fans are still yet to see their team win a league fixture in 2020 after the 1-0 defeat at home against Stoke on Monday night left the Baggies without a win in six Championship outings.

Although Albion remain top of the table, they missed the chance to move four points clear of second-placed Leeds and create more daylight between themselves and third.

Tyrese Campbell’s early goal was enough to seal all three points for visitors Stoke and based on how awful West Brom played at The Hawthorns, it was a result they pretty much deserved.

Stoke were nothing special but Albion shot themselves in the foot defensively with an error by Ahmed Hegazi leading to Campbell’s goal.

At the other end of the pitch, it would be fair to say that Slaven Bilic’s attack was toothless and had no answer for an in-form Stoke back-line.

Grady Diangana also went off injured in the opening few minutes which is something else for Bilic and Albion fans to worry about.

After the match, we asked our West Brom Super Fans which players were their saints and sinners in the defeat against Stoke and understandably, it was hard for a few of them to pick out a saint.
