Sawyers and Livermore will be our problem this season mark my words #wba

FT Thoughts:
O’Shea (raw) & Bartley not good enough for the PL
Massive space in central midfield exploited today; Livermore not good enough and Sawyers worst performance for West Brom
No mettle in the middle to break up play
CB, CDM, CM, ST needed to stand a chance in the PL#wba— WBA Thoughts (@WBA_Thoughts) September 13, 2020
Okay first half.. reasonably solid, second half garbage. Sawyers and Livermore will be a disaster if they don’t get a DM in quick. #wba

So from this we have gathered, Sawyers just doesn’t work hard enough. Livermore needs someone along side him who does that, cause you can’t take away from Livermore he gets stuck in and runs his bollocks off #wba

Livermore and Sawyers as Midfield duo were barely good enough for the championship. Certainly nowhere near Premier League level. #wba

Sawyers looks nervously indecisive to me, which has made him anonymous. Livermore not much better #wba

Visitors Leicester had 63% of the possession, took 13 shots of which seven were on target, and earned five corners, according to BBC Sport.
West Brom, who won automatic promotion from the Championship to the Premier League at the end of last season, will find it tough in the top flight of English football in 2020-21.
