That's a shame, would have provided good competition up top.

He quotes on BBC sport that he wanted to learn as much as he can from Mowbray. Suppose thats our weakness now when competing for players. Riza just doesn't have have player pulling power like other managers (not a dig just a fact). Hopefully it doesn't stay that way.

Doubt he had a choice where to go Would be totally his clubs choice at this stage of his career.

I agree with you.

His club will look at us and think hmmmmm?
WBA are always challenging for promotion and you send to the clubs playing better football and going places it’s best for your player.

WBA have been a bigger club than us for a while so not a big surprise we couldn't compete with them.

They're fighting at the top and we're fighting at the bottom.

Still been a really good window for us.

Don't agree with this it just seems an unnecessary dig against Riza. Facts are West Brom are going for playoffs that's the draw.

We have just signed a decent player off Ajax where Riza has spoken about his own contacts.

Player signings and loans are hot and miss. Move onto next target

Main reason Alves is joining us is because he knows Riza too.
