West Brom talking points: Strong Ramsay, big turning point and Diakite respect
Albion finally turned the tide of their away form as they picked up their first point on the road since October with a dramatic late goal at Derby.
It looked to be the same old story for the Baggies - a mistake leading to a defeat.
But Chris Mepham came off the bench to score as Albion snatched a point.
Jonny Drury looks at four points to come from the Friday night drama.
Strong hand from Ramsay
I think it was clear Eric Ramsay needed to make changes and he did. Persisting with Tuesday night’s XI would have been rewarding failure.
If we’re honest, if he could he would have been within his rights to change the whole side.
But it was five changes, and it showed that he won’t mess around.
He’s given those players a chance, they haven’t delivered and he switched it.
On the system, many were disgruntled to see it was a three/five at the back, but interestingly it was very fluid.
When Albion had the ball, it changed straight away into a four. It showed that Ramsay isn’t rigid with his system, he can tweak and change in game.
