His man got sent off after 20 minutes. Still the best in the division at what he does. Very good today.

need to tie him down on a longer contract, be madness if we cash in and replace him with sandro.

Run the show.

Great player, likeable person too. You notice his presence more when he doesn't play. One of our better signings in recent years.

Another excellent performance from him, but then it is rare to not see that from him. Stories of us selling him in the summer had best not be true unless he is particularly unhappy here, which he never appears to be.

Always feel with Yacob that he requires the two creative midfielders in there with him so that he can win the ball and lay it off to them, which is why I have always felt us at our best when playing 4-3-3 as we did so effectively with Yacob, Mulumbu and Morrison in there. In saying that, his distribution was generally very good yesterday, but that was with him having more time given the man less we were facing.

Bossed the midfield yesterday, even if against 10.

Superb display, loved the passion at the end too. Clapped all four sides and seemed genuinely happy to be a baggie. Could tell how pleased he was to hear his name being sung.

I have critised Yacob in the past saying that he is too limited and we need an 'allrounder'
Yesterday he was an allrounder. Great performance

Totally agree, it is obviously down to the player a bit. But Albion do need to give him a contract which reflects that he is 1st team. In the modern market he'd easily be £6-8mill. Losing him would be a mistake.
Whenever things look bad, remember the Port Vale, Grimsby and Walsall days... not so bad now, eh?!

I thought it was one of his best performances in an Albion shirt. I have also been critical of his limited forward movement but yesterday he was excellent and kept Man Utd down to one (poorish) shot on target.

Me too, he was superb yesterday, easily the second best performance behind Rondon who took some equalling on that display. I'm struggling to think of anything Yacob did wrong.

Yacob was immense yesterday. Bossed the midfield

One of his best performances in an Albion shirt without a doubt.

Needs tying up to a new contract

It seems to suit him when we are pushing higher up the pitch. Maybe there's more movement and more passing options.
He's excelling himself staying out of the refs notebook at the moment....surely it can't last long and that suspension will arrive. At least he's helped get us safe first.

Didn't hear this on TalkSpout but Chris Lepkowski (remember him lol) tweeted this about Yacob & I guess the spat with Alli
Chris Lepkowski ‏@chrislepkowski 3h3 hours ago

Alan Brazil and Harry Redknapp making outrageous accusations about Claudio yacob - a player on the receiving end of  punch #WBA

Chris Lepkowski ‏@chrislepkowski 3h3 hours ago

Apparently he deserved to be punched because he's 'South American' and 'probably said something'

Twerps!

Thought Yacob was on his game last night another good performance.
If only he had legs he'd be a world beater, but then again he wouldn't be here.

I thought that he had a tremendous game last night, don't care what Brazil/Redknapp have got to say they are  irellivant and they don't know if Claudio said anything anyway pure assumption and conjecture for the delectation of talk carp listeners. Ali is not an angel as we all know,he is a bit of a brat isn't he ,oh sorry I cant say anything about a Spurs player they are all great and untouchable are they not.
However I am sure that if it was a Spurs player who had been punched in the stomach that they would have gone down rolling around trying to get a player sent off.

Claudio should be applauded for his conduct a proper player and one whom I am proud to call a baggie.

Also considering they are this young talented ones for the future team they couldn't beat the oldest team in the premier could they?

In fact we could have beaten them, oh dear, what they would have said then, Spurs were under par etc nothing would be written how well we played.

W,e are a proper club we know who we are and we don't care.

If this Alli guy can't cope with a bit of professional domestic 'stick', then he shouldn't be anywhere near an international tournament.

Agreed, we've got Field too, Morrison there too. And if we're looking to buy there as well...
