Squad

Benjamin Cunningham breaks a bone — 36 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 36 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Only the photograph left for Ignacio Riera

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Ignacio Riera will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around West Bromwich Albion the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Market

Jacob Green hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what West Bromwich Albion can pretend not to have heard.

Market

West Bromwich Albion say no — this time

The offer from Ipswich Town for Jacob Green was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Tempers go at West Bromwich Albion

Tammer Kumar was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Isaac Price falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

West Bromwich Albion taken apart

0‑3 to Luton Town, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Squad

Adam Letlat breaks a bone — 51 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 51 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Market

Anatolii Romanchenko hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what West Bromwich Albion can pretend not to have heard.

Boardroom

An order from above at West Bromwich Albion: somebody has to go

Balance sheets do not care about form or about who the manager was planning to build around. The board have decided a sale is required, and the only question left is which name ends up carrying it.

Squad

Tempers go at West Bromwich Albion

Alfie Gilchrist was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Words at West Bromwich Albion training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Isaac Price is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Leicester City join the queue for Cole Dexter

Add another name to the list: Leicester City have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Cole Dexter. The answer from West Bromwich Albion has not changed — yet.

Boardroom

Nobody left the West Bromwich Albion dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Squad

Altay Bayındır wants out of the spotlight

The ambition story running the other way, and the one nobody tells: a footballer asking for a smaller stage, fewer cameras and a crowd that does not turn. It is not weakness and it is very rarely reported as anything else.
