Predicted West Brom starting XI v Swansea City
West Brom are quickly waving goodbye to any chances of promotion from the Championship this season to the Premier League.
Shocking form has seen them drop to 11th in the table, and Steve Bruce will be desperate to pick up his first win in charge.
That chance will come against Swansea City at The Hawthorns on Monday evening, with changes needed.
Sam Johnstone will start in goal as usual, with the stopper not having much chance of keeping either goal out at Middlesbrough.
Darnell Furlong will come into the side at right-back, with Dara O’Shea understandably off the pace after coming back from injury.
Matt Clarke will also come into the side to replace Semi Ajayi, who has been far from convincing in the heart of the defence.
Finishing off the back four will be Kyle Bartley and Conor Townsend on the left-hand side to add that experience needed.
Bruce should switch to a 4-4-2, with Jayson Molumby and Alex Mowatt in the heart of the side, with no real options currently available.
Karlan Grant will play on the left-hand side and will be more tasked with getting dangerous balls into the box.
On the other side will be Grady Diangana, who has looked closer to his old self in recent weeks with no real reward.
Andy Carroll has been so badly isolated in recent weeks and is crying out for someone alongside him to make all the difference.
Callum Robinson will be that man, and hopefully, this change in the system can inspire us to a huge three points on Monday.
