BAGGIES TO STICK WITH SHAN

Sky Sports

West Brom are sticking with caretaker manager James Shan for the foreseeable future, Sky Sports News has learned, as they continue to assess what is their best long-term plan.

Albion have won all three games since Shan took over four weeks ago, and it’s thought the club’s hierarchy has been influenced by the senior players, who have taken on more responsibility themselves and who are happy with the coaching set up as it is.

A number of experienced coaches have been spoken to, however, over the possibility of them joining Shan later in the season, if he feels his workload is too great as they near the play offs, or if performances dip.

Preston’s Alex Neil and out-of-work Slavisa Jokanovic remain in pole position to take over in the summer - by which time, Albion will know which division they are in, and will make firm plans about a new coaching structure.
