I trust Phillips far more than any of West Brom’s other options.

It’s not that he doesn’t trust his abilities, he just wanted more security in the form of that second year guarantee on his contract.

Michael, do you honestly think Phillips can make an impact in the Prem these days? Phillips obviously didn’t trust his own abilities.

Bill, who’s going to replace Phillips’ goals?

To compare West Brom to the Premiership teams you need only look back as far as the FA cup semi final when WBA were by far the better team and lost onlyto a dubious goal that came from an obvious hand ball. The fact that WBA held their own against the eventual winners and high fininshing Pompey proves they have the ability. Losing Gera was a loss, Philips not so much, but they have been replaced and the defence, West Brom’s weak point last year, strengthened. Watch out for some shocks from the Albion, thats my prediction.

Like I said, those are easy predictions to make before the season starts without much to go on. They’re not really bad picks, but they’re dull and a little too… predictable.
