Some will say that predicting the Baggies to finish 15th is a bit harsh, considering Tony Pulis's managerial magnificence, but like Tottenham they relied largely on one man to score most of the goals, and it is a huge ask of Berahino to repeat his performance of last year, and that's if they don't lose him to Spurs later on in the transfer window. They lost out on the move for Diaby, but did secure James Chester and Rickie Lambert, who can both definitely add some stability to this side that secured a famous victory against Manchester United, but also lost 4-1 on the last day of the Premier League season. A fall of 2 places from last season is what we have predicted, and West Brom should feel no shame in that, and look forward to a bright future under Tony Pulis.
Best Transfer Business:
Holding onto Berahino is crucial for the Baggies this year and may be the best thing they have done, although securing the experienced and very different Rickie Lambert could offer them a different style of play, and having options will certainly help Pulis and his side.
Worst Transfer Business:
Not securing Abou Diaby is a big shame for West Brom, but nothing went wrong for Pulis's men, and they have held on to Berahino so far, but if he makes the move to Spurs then that could be bad news for West Brom.
