Albion Analysis

In our first-ever Albion Analysis Meets we speak to former Baggies boss Jimmy Shan.

In part one we talk about his time with the Albion youth setup, and how that youth team produced so many good players. 

Jimmy also gives us an insight into the mentality of current Baggies Taylor Gardner-Hickman and Alex Palmer.

Stay tuned for part two next week when Jimmy will discuss the 18/19 season and his 12 games in charge of the club.

It's the turn of the defenders as Chris & Pete continue their assessment of our playing squad.

Who should stay? Who should go?

Clarke or Lenihan?

Were we crazy to give Kean Bryan a contract until 2023?

All questions which will be tackled with the same ferocity as Dara O'Shea goes in for a 50/50!

This week it's the turn of the midfielders to be put under the microscope.

However, Pete & Chris don't just assess our existing squad but also look at some of the free agents the Baggies have been linked with.

Would Rothwell, Swift or Wallace be good signings? Find out what the guys think in this week's Albion Analysis.

Chris & Pete analyse Albion's existing forward options and determine who should stay and who should go ahead of next season.

They also debate whether Ken Zohore is the worst signing in Albion's history...

With the season effectively ended at Nottingham Forest, Pete & Chris turn their attention to who should be in charge of the Baggies next season.

They've each drawn up a shortlist of managers they'd like to see in the dugout and they give their verdict on whether they'd consider keeping Steve Bruce for the 22/23 season.

Do you agree with their choices? Tweet us @AlbionAnalysis

After inconsistent Albion dashed any lingering play-off hopes against Stoke on Saturday, Chris and Pete use this pod to look to the future.

They assess whether Romaine Sawyers, Andy Carroll and Matt Clarke should remain at the club next season.

They also discuss who should be Albion's number one next term after Bruce suggested at the weekend it would be one of Button, Palmer or Griffiths.

With Albion's season effectively ended at Blues on Sunday, Chris & Pete take the opportunity to look to next season.

They discuss the big question of whether Steve Bruce should be our manager next season while also debating if Grant & Robinson are the long-term answer up front and if our defence is the one area of our squad we can be satisfied with?

If you have any thoughts, please tweet us @AlbionAnalysis.

On this week's pod Chris & Pete discuss who might take over from Sam Johnstone as Albion no.1 next season.

We also do some myth-busting around the Baggies' corners and Daryl Dike's injury record.

And, of course, we look back on a disappointing day at Ashton Gate and ask, how did we follow up the Fulham performance with THAT?

They've only gone and made us believe again (well Chris believes anyway).

We look back on an incredible week in which Albion reignited their season with four points at home to Huddersfield and Fulham.

We discuss the blossoming partnership between Robinson and Grant, Chris begs the club to sign Matt Clarke permanently and we also ask why was there such a negative reaction to rumours of Jayson Molumby signing permanently from some fans?

FINALLY, Chris & Pete have a victory to talk about after the 2-0 win at Hull.

We have a look at what made the difference in that game, was it the switch back to three centre-halves which we had been calling for?

We also analyse Taylor Gardner-Hickman's impact and ask whether Grant is the answer at no.9?

We also have a look at a couple of Hull players who Chris feels could be potential transfer targets for the Baggies this summer.
