West Bromwich Albion fans have been reacting to the performance of Grady Diangana during their recent game in the Championship.

Given the disruption that taking place across the Championship, with only a handful of games being played on Boxing Day, the game gave West Brom a chance to get some points on the board and put themselves in a good position in the table, having come into the match just two points outside the automatic promotion spots.

To kick off this quiz on West Bromwich Albion's 2019/20 season, how many points did the Baggies end the 2019/20 Championship campaign with?

The Baggies struggled to get a foothold in the game, and fell behind just after half time after a rather calamitous moment between Cedric Kipre and Sam Johnstone.

But part of their bad day also came down to their lack of production up top, and that fell on forwards like 23-year-old Diangana, who was only able to get away one shot during the game (via WhoScored) before being taken off just past the hour mark.

His performance earned him some fierce criticism from Baggies supporters on social media during the game:

“About time. Diangana wastes another 60mins when someone else could’ve played. Awful player.”

“Diangana is a fraud.”
“Cannot believe we spent 18mill on Grady Diangana”
“Get Diangana off and put one of the kids on, he is absolutely muck”
“I have never seen a weaker footballer than Grady Diangana In my whole life”
“Diangana is a lost cause I think. Shadow of the player we had on loan”

Will West Brom go up via the play-offs?

Yes!

Yes!

No!

No!

His production levels have dropped off since he was at the club on loan back in 2019/20, but he’ll have to sort that out soon if he’s to help the Baggies have a successful promotion campaign.
