'There are so many players' - Ryan Mason on his West Brom options to help create more in final third

Boss Mason said last week he has only had summer recruit striker Aune Heggebo and Josh Maja, returning from a long-term injury absence, to call upon to lead the line.

In recent weeks the trio support cast has been wingers Mikey Johnston and Villa Samuel Iling-Junior and attacking midfielder Isaac Price, who top scores with five.

"I want to see us win games of football," Mason said when asked about scoring more goals. "We can speak a lot about it looking different and being more fluid and creating more chances. That's normal.

"Two of our starting players (Iling-Junior and Heggebo) from the other day just come in this season, so we're sort of learning more about them.

"Obviously, Sammy has played as a wing-back a lot of his career and we feel like he's got the attributes to really help us in this league.

"Mikey's output in terms of numbers has been OK. Got Pricey to a place where he's scoring, he's affecting games. That's the challenge for the team.

"I think the most important thing is the team and how the team works together, not just individuals creating moments."

Price, with two, and Johnston have scored his side's last three goals - all spectacular efforts from distance, something Mason has said cannot be relied on.

Karlan Grant, another wide option, is back from a spell on the sidelines as is Tammer Bany, who is yet to play a minute this season. Winger and captain Jed Wallace has missed three games with a calf issue.

Mason added: "(Karlan) Grant is coming back. Tammer (Bany) - there's so many players that have different attributes that can help in that area.

"It's a challenge whoever's on the pitch to try and develop those relationships and be as effective as possible."
