They are at the moment languishing in 20^th, with only one win from ten within the Championship, and with simply 15 targets scored in ten video games (5 of which got here in a single match).

One man who would definitely inject some confidence into this misfiring outfit is former striker Peter Odemwingie, who Steve Bruce would be wishing he had now for his present toothless facet.

Across 90 appearances for the Baggies, the Nigerian marksman bagged 31 occasions, while additionally offering 17 assists. That implies that he contributed to a minimum of one objective as soon as each 1.8 video games.

It isn’t going to set the world alight however that type of stable proficiency in entrance of objective, alongside a stable defence that Bruce can be determined to domesticate, may have been the right mixture for achievement.

During the 2011/12 Premier League season, ten targets in 30 appearances introduced him as a reasonably dependable choice up entrance.

To deliver this manner all the way down to the Championship would absolutely see his targets improve, and he may very well be the ultimate piece of the puzzle to permit West Brom to kick on in the direction of promotion as soon as extra.

Signed in 2010 for simply an undisclosed payment, this “wonderful” ahead would undoubtedly be the reply to their prayers may they return him to the present facet in his prime.

Not solely was he an enormous success on the pitch, however the truth that he left and recouped a £2.5m payment made him an all-around success for the membership.

If solely he may deliver a few of that potential now, they may not have had such a lacklustre begin to the brand new marketing campaign.

What began out as a promotion-chasing season has rapidly turn out to be all about stabilisation, however with a correct ahead like Odemwingie they would definitely have extra than simply the one win in the direction of their goals.
