‘Awful’, ‘Very average’ – Many West Brom fans blast ‘One-trick pony’ in 0-0 draw v Fulham
West Brom fans have slammed Kamil Grosicki for his performance in the goalless draw with Fulham at The Hawthorns on Tuesday evening.
Grosicki, 32, was substituted off at half-time by Slaven Bilic with Matt Phillips being chosen to replace the experienced Polish winger.
It was by no means an impressive first half by Grosicki with the former Hull man failing to have anywhere near the impact he had in some of his recent appearances.
Luckily, West Brom are graced with a number of options in their attack and Bilic was able to replace him without weakening the team.
Stats by WhoScored show that Grosicki completed just nine passes in the opening 45 minutes, failed to complete any dribbles and was dispossessed once by Fulham.
He and Conor Townsend seemed to struggle to cope with Fulham’s attack with Anthony Knockaert causing a number of issues against the two left-sided Albion players.
After the break, when Grady Diangana moved to the left, West Brom seemed to be a lot more defensively sound than they did with Grosicki on the pitch so we have to give props to Bilic for making the half-time change.
After looking on Twitter it seems that plenty of Baggies fans would have also hooked the Poland international at the break too.
