Earlier in the season, Albion could do nothing wrong and they did it while naming the same line-up every game.

Since then, changes have been a regular occurrence with some of those switches down to injuries at the back and across the Albion squad.

Corberan again made changes for the trip to Watford, with Mikey Johnston and Alex Mowatt both left out of the side, and for the latter it was the case of needing a rest having played almost every minute this season.

Tweaking his side is something Corberan has had to do. Despite many feeling Albion had a lot of depth earlier in the campaign, it now feels they are lacking quality in that area.

But it feels like many people, including Corberan himself, now know what the best line-up is, and we saw it in that thrilling 2-2 draw against Sheffield United earlier this month.

Unlike for much of his time in charge, the Spaniard switched to a 4-4-2, with Karlan Grant playing up front alongside Josh Maja, while Johnston occupied the left flank.
