West Bromwich Albion FC / Re: Craig Dawson

Yes McAuley did start for Nth Ireland and played 90 mins.  Watched the game but not the answer i'm afraid.  He did nothing wrong mind, and was up against decent strikers but just fails to convince. Better than Meite??...well yes he is and just defends, does nothing fancy and gets the odd goal.  Just hope Roy is brave enough to throw Dawson in ahead of McAuley, which I doubt. As for Tamas, done ok but I feel Roy has picked him because he had to.  Next few games will be interesting.  Whats the odds of Dawson playing against Wolves next month and getting a goal..worth a bet!!!

Like many Baggies fans I read the various comments about our lack of activity in signing an established centre half.  We all know it's the area of the team that needed improved.  But maybe, just maybe our new centre half has been signed and just needs that chance to show what he can do.  I just had a browse through related articles in relation to Craig Dawson.  Didn't realise Spurs had a good look at him and Roy when at Fulham watched him alot.  So when will his time come? When you look at Smalling and Jones getting the opportunity, should Roy just select him and take the chance?  From reading everything about him I think he's ready.  He has a great attitude, loved by the fans at Rochdale and I know Baggies fans want him to play.  It all depends how the forthcoming games go but I think it's only a matter of time before him and Jonas as our central defensive pair.

So lets try and put a positive spin on things.  His previous manager at Rochdale says he will wear the England shirt one day and become a member of the full England squad.

Your views please!!!

text from one of the players saying Roy on fone constant.  2 deals very close but nothing until he returns. New GK over 7 - 10 days.  Foster main target and has always been.  Blues looking silly money initiallly
