While Watford supporters are daring to dream of a bright future under Marco Silva, West Brom’s own fans are continuing to debate the same old storyline.

Tony Pulis will inevitably secure survival, the odd victory over an Arsenal or Liverpool, while his proud record as the top club in the West Midlands will stay intact for at least another season.

He has arguably got the best Albion squad of the Premier League era, with over £70million spent on players in the last two years.

But there remains a feeling that this team is capable of further progress if Pulis was to abandon his natural caution and focus more on the strengths of his own players.
