Albion have been warned not to get too far ahead of themselves with thoughts of FA Cup glory. They kick off their campaign away to Championship high-flyers West Brom tomorrow. The Baggies are unbeaten at home in the league with seven wins and five draws.
Graham Potter said: “It’s a great club, West Brom. I had three-and-a-bit years there so I know the people of the area. They are great supporters and back their team. From an on-the-pitch perspective they are going through a bit of a transition with a new coach, a new style of play, but they are still up there competing to be in the Premier League and I think they will get better the longer they work together. I am impressed with West Brom as a club. They are a football club that have probably had too many head coaches recently, so they are going through a little bit of a transition with Valerien (Ismael) and how that style develops will take a little bit of time to see the full potential of everything. But not so long ago they were in the Premier League. They have still got a few of those players and will add a few more to supplement their ideas. They are giving a few young players a chance as well, so they are moving in the right direction.”
Albion won 3-1 after extra-time in a replay at the Hawthorn three years ago on their way to the semi-final. With no obvious relegation worries as things stand, Potter was asked whether they can give the cup “a really good go” this term.
Graham Potter said: “We will have a really good go at beating West Brom, because we’re in a good moment. But we play a side who I am sure want to progress. We will respect our opponent, we will try our best to go through. It’s West Brom at the Hawthorns in the FA Cup, it’s by no means an easy game.”
