'There is no pressure': Why Daryl Dike's latest West Brom return will come with less expectations - and it could be a good thing

Daryl Dike is edging his way back to full fitness - having returned to Albion training following his latest injury set back.

The US international has been hampered by serious injuries since he arrived at Albion back in January 2022 for £7m.

Dike has suffered two ruptured Achilles as well as a string of other set backs that have kept him out of action.

He made a goalscoring return to the Albion side on the final day of last season - with fans hoping he could make a big impact in the final year of his contract.

However, despite featuring in pre-season he is yet to feature in a competitive match this campaign due to a thigh issue.

He returned to training last week - with the hope he could be back in contention towards the end of October.

Lewis Cox and Jonny Drury discussed Dike on this week's podcast - and why his latest comeback comes with a lot less pressure than his previous returns.
