One of the biggest ones is 'inconsistent'.

Now that seems strange when it comes to talking about a side sitting sixth in the table with eleven games left to play.

But it is the case when you look back over Albion's results so far this season. They have been patchy, inconsistent and unable to build any kind of momentum over long periods.

You can put the campaign into three stages. The first six games when Carlos Corberan's side caught everyone by surprise, by flying out of the blocks and winning five of their first six games, with the only draw coming against current leaders Leeds.

They then went on a run of ten draw in eleven games, with the only victory in that period coming away at Hull which ironically is the last time Albion have won away from home. That has been a big problem in itself.
