Aune Heggebø breaks Sheffield United hearts
Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Aune Heggebø scored in the 88th minute, Sheffield United had already begun thinking about the journey home, and West Bromwich Albion took the lot.
Player ratings29 Nov 2027
A brace, and Aune Heggebø takes the afternoon — 8.87
There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Aune Heggebø provided it, and the 8.87 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Remar McNeil is 18, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Ángel Cardozo Lucena in a row with a teammate

Layton Love wants to come home
“I did not go to Wycombe Wanderers to sit and watch. I want to come back to West Bromwich Albion and fight for my place.” 5 appearances in 21 matches say the rest.

West Bromwich Albion pick somebody else ahead of Max O'Leary
There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

The manager makes an example of Daryl Dike
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
In brief
