Mowbray backing for misfiring midfield

3rd December 2008

West Brom manager Tony Mowbray is confident his midfielders will soon be back on the goal trail.

After scoring 31 goals from midfield in the Championship last season, the Baggies have scored just three so far in the Premier League this season, although James Morrison, Chris Brunt and Jonathan Greening all came close at Wigan last weekend.

And Mowbray told the club`s official website: "We`ve been encouraging them. Last year, although in a different quality league, our midfielders did chip in with more goals.

"I`m sure the midfield players will score. It`s something that we have to keep working on in training.

"They hit their shots well, maybe too well, which helped the keeper. Sometimes if you scuff or miskick one, it can roll past the keeper - maybe we need some of those."
