West Brom finding confidence and threat in their Land of the Giants - boss
Boss James Morrison has called on Albion's giants to maintain confidence in their new set-piece weapon.
Resurgent Albion have developed into a huge threat from dead balls of late and it is the huge frame of some of their regulars leading the way.
None more so than defender George Campbell, the defender who headed in his third goal in six games to earn thee vital points at Bristol City on Saturday with a first away win in the Championship in almost six months.
Boss Morrison admitted he has not tweaked much when it comes to set-pieces, but encouraged his players to attack consistent deliveries in Albion's land of the giants.
"Through a couple of his goals he's gained confidence that he is a threat in the box," Morrison said of Campbell.
"I think it helps when we've got a bigger team, with him, Nat (Phillips), Oussie (Diakite) and Daryl (Dike) on.
"The delivery makes us a threat as well. It's something we've talked about.
"But we've not changed that much, really, it is probably just the lads attacking the ball in a better area."
American defender Campbell has four Baggies goals to his name, all scored since the final fixture of 2025 on December 29. The tally matches his previous career haul since turning professional for Atlanta United's reserve team in 2019.
Centre-back partner Phillips recently returned from a brief injury spell and is a powerful presence in the air.
"I've asked him to do a different job and he's stuck to that," Morrison added of Campbell, who until recently played at right-back and had barely partnered Phillips all season.
"I think those two complement each other really well. Nat coming back into the team against Hull gave us that platform.
"When balls are coming up he's really aggressive and then he has the option to play into the front two, so that makes it simple for him too."
Midfielder Diakite - who last week signed a one-year contract extension - is a giant frame and has been a more regular starter of late under Morrison. Striker Dike has played more football under the new regime than previously.
