Carlos Corberan: West Brom ‘need to do more’ in amazing new admission

Carlos Corberan has told his West Brom players they must do more to win games against bigger sides as it is not enough just to be competitive.

Pointing to the defeats against Southampton and Leicester, the boss said they did well to remain competitive in the games against top sides but should be doing more to pick up all three points.

This has come amid praise for the level of opposition in the Championship, naming Coventry and Stoke as teams that can cause issues despite their positions in the table.

Speaking to the Express & Star [4 December], Corberan shared: “The way we competed on Saturday doesn’t change my view of the team. I think, when we have every player ready and fit, we are a strong team.

“We can compete, like we did against Ipswich, Southampton and Leicester, teams in a good position in the table. But this year the table is not only about how you compete against teams of a good level, every single time you are on the pitch if you don’t show a very good level you are not going to win football games.

“You see Coventry’s position in the table, you see Stoke’s position in the table, these teams are going to demand of you the same that Ipswich or Leicester is demanding of us.
