Jed Wallace failed to impress the fans as West Brom played out a 1-1 draw with Luton Town at Kenilworth Road on Friday.

Given the nod by Carlos Corberan ahead of the likes of John Swift and Tom Fellows, the 30-year-old was hooked after 63 minutes, having had a limited impact on Friday’s Championship clash (1 November).

Jed Wallace earns poor reviews from Luton Town v West Brom draw

The Baggies are now winless in seven matches, a far cry from their form at the start of the new campaign, and Wallace’s performance has done nothing to ease frustrations.

Wallace notched six goals and five assists in the Championship last season, but with no goal contributions under his belt this term, patience is wearing thin with the former Millwall man.

One fan even went as far as to suggest that the 30-year-old should be sold during the January transfer window, with another asking Corberan to start Mikey Johnston or Fellows ahead of him.

His display at Kenilworth Road was branded “totally ineffective” and “simply not good enough”, while others are struggling to understand the manager’s decision on the starting XI.

The fans have every right to be upset with their team’s recent form, and although the Baggies are still sitting in fifth in the Championship table, they won’t be for much longer if this continues.

Corberan’s side have a chance to turn things around on Thursday 7 November when they welcome Burnley to The Hawthorns, but the Clarets will be searching for all three points near the top of the table.
