Goals on the way for Leo
9:30am Tuesday 19th February 2013 in Sport By Andy Naylor
Leonardo Ulloa has yet to score in the league for Albion
Leo Ulloa has predicted he will not have to wait much longer to be part of a Championship goal rush for Albion.
The Argentinian target man spearheads the attack at leaders Cardiff tonight in search of his first league goal.
Gus Poyet’s £2 million January signing made a dream start by scoring on his debut against Arsenal in the FA Cup at The Amex but has drawn a blank in three Championship outings following his move from Spanish club Almeria.
Ulloa said: “He (Poyet) doesn’t tell me but I know I am here to score goals so I want to start scoring as quickly as I can.
“I am calm. I am not too worried, because of the way the team is playing. In the first 20 minutes against Blackburn Rovers we created a lot of chances so I know the goals are coming. I cannot lose confidence now, because that would be bad for me and the team.”
Top scorer Craig Mackail-Smith is pushing for a return to the starting line-up after he was dropped to the bench for the 1-1 home draw with Rovers last week.
Ulloa said: “He has different skills to me. We play in the same position but we are not the same kind of players. I think we have a very good relationship. Now it is Gus’s decision to play with me, him or us together.”

It will be tough and I'd be delighted with a win, which if we win our game in hand would leave us 3 points from 'boro with them still to play and a superior goal difference. Lose tonight and I think the gap will start looking insurmountable.

Can I get this also please? I can't trace the exact website, have you got the full address please?
I note also that Cardiff City fans can watch all of their games, free of charge,through "Astro", I wonder why we can't do the same?
Cheers.

Cheers, praying for a win tonight, locals are being handed a free Red scarf, some don't like it maybe some dissent with the new Malayan owners during the game. Keep Bellamy quiet and we can beat 'em.

The only game I haven't seen Ulloa play was against Sheff Weds, but he has looked very useful IMO. Moves well, links nicely with the midfield, can pass, hold the ball, run with it, shoot (just see him in the warm-ups). Just needs a bit of luck and he'll be flying.

Imo he will be a top scorer for us once he's settled in & don't think that will be long

TK and the same back four as Blackburn, Greer on the bench.
Bridcutt and Hammond
Vicente - Ulloa - Buckley - CMS
A variation might be Lua Lua and not CMS.

A word of advice for first-time firstrow users... don't download anything. Do not use the HD app, just try Link 1... If it starts to bomb out try Link 2. If you have a small ad over the match screen make sure you can access the full screen arrow (bottom right - it may be masked by another pop up ad - get rid). The offending ad in the middle will disappear on full screen. Good luck to one and all... Fingers crossed.

The Cardiff fans could be right, they do have some very good players but the difference between us and them is that they have taken their chances more than we have.
We have lost only one more game than they have, but we have oh so many draws.
The stats prove that both teams are hard to beat so I htink we start even there. Both have a couple of gems that stand out, so even again.
Both teams know how to create chances, even. On converting chances, Cardiff have been better.
So now we must evaluate our addition of Ulloa and Vicente, two players thta we have not had for nearly the whole season so far. Do those guys even up the two strike forces, we will know that after 90 minutes plus extra time.

Open game, yep I am sure you are right on that, there is not point sitting back and hoping to score on the break, take the game to them.
I am starting to get fired up already and still over 3 hours to go lol.
Matches such as this one often produce a stand out performance, be it a striker or a keeper at the end of the match you can point to one person that made the difference, let's hope it's not the ref, unless he give us a match winning penalty award :-)

When I looked at him right after the tackle his lower leg was pointing in the wrong direction, I couldn't handle it.
That was his last game and it happened on the pitch at the top of ditchling road.

It would be nice for us to take an early lead in an away game, get the opposition's supporters quiet. Gus will have his plan and it will be up to the players to deliver, but games won't get much harder than this this season. Just got to convert those chances.

Not sure I've ever seen Albion play for a draw; how does that work exactly?
Tell Bridge and Bruno not to venture forward, that would help for a draw.
Do what others have done when coming to the Amex, park the bus, could help secure a draw.
I am not advocating any of the above.
