West Brom take on Sheffield United next on 29 December, with Corberan’s exit coming at the busiest stage of the Championship season over Christmas.

After Chris Brunt and Boaz Myhill managed the club to a 2-1 defeat at Derby last time out, it is critical to get back to winning ways and install that new manager as soon as possible.

John Terry, Steven Gerrard and David Moyes have been placed in the running, but it is important that the right person is placed in charge, and not just because of their name.

In other news, Albion fans are blown away by who might be the new man in charge at The Hawthorns.
