Swansea 3-0 West Brom

dterNathan Dyer scores twice as Swansea beat West Brom at Liberty Stadium. He does in the 2nd and then in the 71st after the 24 minite goal from Wayne Routlage. West Brom improve after the break but still cannot find a goal. Monk:

It’s a good start but that’s all it is. There’s a long way to go and a lot more work to do, but it’s good to have the winning habit. We know what we are. We’ll try to get to that 40-point barrier as quickly as possible, that will always be our target. It’s only our fourth year in the Premier League and expectations come with winning games but we have to get there as soon as possible.

Spurs 0-1 West Brom

0 Comments

Spurs slide to a dismal home defeat against a West Bromwich Albion side that is bottom of the league and without a win this season. James Morrison heads the winner for the Baggies as he is given freedom of the box by the lacklustre home defence. A second straight home defeat without scoring leads to boos at the final whistle from the disappointed home fans.
