West Brom: Fans debate Austin vs Robson-Kanu

West Brom are absolutely flying along at the moment and look a side capable of getting back into the Premier League after a couple of seasons away.

If they can get back into the top flight come the end of the campaign this year, it will have only been two years that they were away from the promised land.

Indeed, they certainly look a side capable to be playing back in the Premier League and Slaven Bilic has to be praised for the work that he has done so far.

With that in mind, then, it’s perhaps no surprise the form of Hal Robson-Kanu and Charlie Austin are getting the plaudits right now as they continue to fire in the goals for the men from the Hawthorns.

Indeed, Baggies Bible on Twitter offered this interesting question concerning the pair:

If we had these two on loan and could only sign one of them permanently, which one would it be and why?🤔 #WBA pic.twitter.com/84uMfYYxXu

And it got plenty of responses on Twitter so let’s take a look at the best of what has been said:

They are both unique in their own way!! Kanu has bailed us out when needed and so has Austin in the last 2 games!!! But if I had to choose, it’d have to be Dwight 🤘🏽

Austin cos he can come on and score a goal, even tho ik kanu has been amazing and is a more well rounded plur

Kanu is technically a better footballer, Austin is a lethal goalscorer, but simply goals win u games so Austin for me all day long but can’t underestimate how good Kanu has been this season, turned around everyone’s opinion of him
