West Brom fans fall ‘in love’ with Uros Racic after what he did v Plymouth Argyle – ‘Frightening’
West Brom returned to the top of the Championship table on Saturday afternoon with a solid 1-0 victory over Plymouth Argyle.

Albion fans on social media lauded the Serbian midfielder’s display, having arrived in the summer on loan from Sassuolo.
The home victory represented Racic’s first start for the club, as he hopes to make an impact on a set of fans becoming increasingly confident following a summer of uncertainty.
