He performed well yesterday and scored the winner against the Villa, at their place.

Now is the perfect time to let all the bitterness go...

Wasn't happy and really didn't want to like him again. However just scored the winner at villa park and did the boing boing in front of the holte end so all is forgiven

I still think he's a King Cnut. Still no apology.

I'd take him signing a new contract with a PROPER buyout clause & a pay rise for him

Looked overweight and didn't play that well I didn't think. Stuck his foot out to get the deflected goal and put in some good corners. Apart from that nothing special. Much more to do before he turns things round.

Did you not see after the game when he took his top off? Hardly overweight.

As somebody else said, he may not have apologised but he did score the winner and boing boing'd in front of the villa fans!

Some players (very few) have the happy knack of being in the right place at the right time, I'm coming round to thinking Saido is one of these whether its luck, hard work or a skill I have no idea, but long may it continue.

Still a t**t, but at least he is still our t**t!

He will go, but if he earns his money from now until January, or better still next Summer, he can go wherever he and his mum like

The transfer saga is over at least for the time being. Provided he gets his head down between now and whenever he leaves I will be just delighted to see him turn in solid performances and score a few goals. I think his best position might be as a wide attacker arriving in the box from one of the wings which makes him difficult to mark played with the right players behind the striker he could very effective

In the style of Thierry Henry but I am afraid we can only dream of players of his quality

Its a thin line between hero and villain.

Can you imagine if his deflection had not found the net??

I actually dont think JM's original shot would have gone in (keeper and Lescott had it covered between them) but JM would not have been happy if his goalbound shot had been deflected away into a goal kick.

I think Berahino's flick went exactly where he intended so it was great skill, but risky!

Baggieblood · « **Reply #5386 on:** September 21, 2015, 01:28:47 AM »

I don't know why bera was taking the corners.

Never seen that before.

I thought that brunt must have a problem but he took them after bera went off.

I'd prefer our best finisher to be at the end of corners not taking them.

Along with you and every other fan I was thinking the same thing. The best explanation I could come up with was that TP wanted to mix things up and present a different look to our corners due to Lescott's recent departure. Of course in reality that probably has nothing to do with it but sounded good to me.

Has he ever scored from a corner, his heading is not good. I though his delivery was good.

Yeah, he's got a couple, as people have said Burnley at home and Villa away. His heading may not be great at all but he's in such good positions that his heading doesn't matter.

Fletcher explains why Berahino is taking corners :

AND SAIDOâ€™S TAKING CORNERS NOW?

"Because he puts in a fantastic delivery, Once he did it in training the balls were fantastic. You find that with forward; Robin van Persie took them at United. They're good strikers of the ball and I think they know where the ball is dangerous to score.

"People might say they should be scoring but when you're moving up big defenders then they are the ones who are going to get on the end of the crosses.

"He was a wide attacking midfielder today and putting in fantastic crosses. If the delivery is good we've got players that can get on the end of them and get you goals.

I have no problem with it and think we will get more out of a good delivery than we will from having Saido in the box. Our corners have been far too poor for too long.

Ahem !! highest number of assists, that taker of poor corners !

When a certain party see's your comment, he will be on your case, you have been warned !

The amount of poor corners we put in without pace are unreal. About time we changed it around

Droitwich Baggie · « **Reply #5398 on:** September 21, 2015, 05:09:01 PM »

I still can't understand that we don't have a wide man on the opposite side to the corner which is to be taken.
The amount of balls which go over there (either by defence or attack) is surprising.
It isn't just the Albion, either.

BRIAN · « **Reply #5399 on:** September 21, 2015, 06:27:08 PM »

Droitwich, I advocated that 60 years ago. In those days and later still, foreign teams often employed it.
