Lewis Cox and Jonny Drury give their predicted line-ups ahead of West Brom's clash with Huddersfield


Lewis
Palmer, Ajayi, Kipre, Pieters, Furlong, Molumby, Yokuslu, Phillips, Wallace, Thomas-Asante, Swift
Subs: Griffiths, Bartley, Taylor, Townsend, Chalobah, Mowatt, Sarmiento, Fellows, Maja.
SARMIENTO
Sometimes you don't have to say too many things. From when he arrived here I've said many things. We've analysed with him every game he was playing before he arrived here, to have in his mind how he can hurt opponents, how he can produce more things in attack and how he can defend at the level I want him to.
What I watch is a very good adaption from him. He has a very good personality, so at some point he will want more minutes because he has come here expecting to play minutes. At the same time, he is mature enough to understand that there is a process for adaption - not only physical, which we have done, I cannot give you any physical excuse now.
It's more adaption to the teammates, to the Championship, to the games and he has had a very positive adaption. After last weekend, I saw this week the best of him since he arrived at the club. In training, he was showing some part his level, but not enough - but this week I watched a different week and I saw a more impactful Jeremy Sarmiento. This is his target that we have too.
MAJA
He could be tomorrow a starting player. Jeremy tomorrow could be. We have those two new players, Kipre was a 'new player', he starts for me. Mowatt is another who could be a starter, right now the team has a competitiveness. Maja could be in the first XI, or Thomas-Asante.
Jeremy could be, or Phillips or Wallace, or Swift. At the end, you can never win games just with the first XI. Sometimes fans see the first XI as the first XI but to win games you must have a good team but also very good players from the bench, too. That's what I want and what every single team needs.
Jonny
Palmer, Bartley, Kipre, Pieters, Furlong, Phillips, Yokuslu, Molumby, Wallace, Thomas-Asante, Swift
Like Coxy, I'd say it will be close to what it was last week with Ajayi the doubt, and if he is out Bartley comes in for me.
My heart says Sarmiento will be thrown in but given Carlos Corberan's midweek comments, he looks set for a position on the bench.
And on Josh Maja, although pushing for a start, it's hard to see BTA being dislodged at this moment.
