James Morrison thankful of international break
James Morrison believes the international break could not have come at a better time for him as he battles to overcome an ankle injury.
Albion's current Player of the Year doesn't believe he's at the top of his game and is hoping the extended break will be just what the doctor ordered.
"It's not right at the moment," said the 29-year-old.
"I'm struggling to get it better - this break's going to be crucial for me to get my body right."
Morrison picked up the injury in Albion's 2-0 defeat at Crystal Palace on October 3 and missed two games before returning as a substitute against Leicester City a month later.
Although he started at Old Trafford on Saturday, he failed to make any impact on the game.
"It's been a funny one - I just planted my foot against Crystal Palace and something happened," Morrison added.
"I'm working hard and I can deal with it at the moment, but this break will be nice for me to get it right and get some fitness and sharpness back and continue my form from the start of the season."
