West Brom would love Peter Odemwingie

West Bromwich Albion are a staff determined for a goalscorer, with Karlan Grant struggling in entrance of aim and Brandon Thomas-Asante an unproven expertise having joined late on in the summertime window.

The previous has simply three targets this season regardless of having performed in all of their league fixtures.

Would you’re taking Odemwingie again now?

They’re at present 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 could be wishing he had now for his present toothless facet.

Throughout 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 aim as soon as each 1.8 video games.

It’s not going to set the world alight however that sort of strong proficiency in entrance of aim, alongside a strong defence that Bruce shall be determined to domesticate, might have been the proper mixture for achievement.

In the course of the 2011/12 Premier League season, ten targets in 30 appearances introduced him as a fairly dependable choice up entrance.

To deliver this type right down to the Championship would certainly see his targets enhance, and he could possibly 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 charge, this “wonderful” ahead would positively be the reply to their prayers might 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 charge made him an all-around success for the membership.

If solely he might deliver a few of that means 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 shortly grow 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.
