Said it before, Jude Bellingham still being at Blues is 100% about parenting.

You maybe doing us a misustice, it's the world we live in now. "Retain" is old as dated as loyalty.
Sadly everything has a price.
Our academy has produced many a good player - but when the money men come calling they move on.
Ashley Williams, Chris Wood, Saido, Romaine Sawyers - back with us.
Tyler Robert, Kemar Roofe, George Thorne, Izzy Brown
Louie Barry has gone to Barcelona the wealthiest club in Europe.
Rogers has just gone to the wealthiest club in the country.
We have another dozen coming through and already in the first team, who if they continue to improve we will not be able to hang
on to them. Money talks - we must remember foremost WBA is a business.

Going back to us being ‘unbeaten’...
I deffo think it’s something the players/staff are building on. In all of the players post match tweets/posts/comments, they all allude to the ‘run continuing’. Bilic said the same post match.

FACT.
The % of footballers signed on academy contracts that go onto play full time, professional football is lower than 1%
Yes, sorry it is.
It's 1% that get paid. Getting paid includes turning out for Halesowen Town.

Funny how such a large amount of that 1% all come through our academy. Unbelievable really.

We need clean sheets, now.

Leeds aren't unbeaten, but are 3 points better off than us - this shows us how draws need to become wins, especially the two draws against Milwall and Reading. Still, it's a nice little record to have.
Huddersfield haven't won all season (and it's 17 winless games in total), I wonder what's coming Sunday...It would be typical Albion, wouldn't it?

Of course it would... the rehab clinic will be open for service Sunday morning without a doubt!
Hudds at 7/2....
