Baggies Word On The Tweet

‘Better than Ferguson’, ‘Let’s get promoted’ – Many West Brom fans delighted by Bilic masterstroke

|

The defensive record that West Bromwich Albion have this season in the Championship is far from what it should be for a side in the automatic promotion places. The Baggies have shipped more goals than any of the top five, yet they’ve now signed Lee Peltier to try and combat that.

The 33-year-old former Cardiff City defender may be one who some fans will turn their noses up at owing to the fact he’s into his thirties and has only amassed the reputation he has in the Championship, but this is by no means a bad signing, and most of the supporters are delighted.

Cardiff City supporters are gutted to have lost Peltier, and his defensive abilities should help Slaven Bilic to tighten up his leaky backline, adding rotation to his defence which should help to get more out of the likes of Semi Ajayi and Kyle Bartley, the current first-choice pairing.

The Hawthorns looks like one of the places to be at the moment, and hopefully, Peltier can only go on to further show why.
