What has been said ahead of West Brom vs Sheffield Wednesday?

Speaking after the loss to Sunderland, Xisco said: “It’s important to start thinking about how you can improve the situation… You need to understand about some players and when you get home you start thinking about your first XI and the situation but we are one of the teams in the Championship who have used the most players and in pre-season everyone had the opportunity with me.

“If we need to change something, maybe, but you need the process in training. But I’m doing something wrong because if you’re not reaching the style you want, the level you want it’s because you are doing something bad… I need to try to give my best but with normality and logic.”

Meanwhile, West Brom head coach Corberan was delighted with their impressive victory at Preston and said: “The result today was the consequence of working hard to try and deliver a complete performance.

“We performed really well from the referee’s first whistle to the last. It was something which was necessary because in the previous games we played well in parts, but we didn’t deliver a complete performance and we only managed draws.

“Today, I am very pleased because I saw all the players completing the whole game at a very good level.

“Winning football matches in the Championship is always very tough. We knew how tough today would be, coming here and winning against a team who have won every game at Deepdale so far this season. In football though, statistics don’t really mean anything when a new game is being played.”
