Jed Wallace: West Brom midfielder urges players to take accountability

He has made an immediate impact since returning, scoring in the FA Cup win at Swansea before his two goal involvements against Boro, and insists he is doing all he can to stay fit after a “tough” 15 months.

“Accountability is the first thing you need to do when things aren’t going well and that starts with me – I’ve been injured far too much,” he said.

“That’s been a real challenge for me, mentally, because I’m someone I feel that can help the group, and I’m desperate to help.

“It’s frustrating but the easiest thing to do as a player when it isn’t going well is to go in your shell and hide and blame someone else, and we won’t allow that to happen.”

Wallace said Ramsay has already made a “big impact” and “would not accept” a lack of commitment, no matter the pedigree of the player.

“Some of the lads have shown they’re capable of playing at the level above and also can be top players at this level,” Wallace added.

“For some reason we’ve not shown that consistency as individuals and as a collective and that needs to improve massively.

“You can’t blame anyone else for that. You need to look in the mirror, the same way that I do.”

Albion face a busy week in the league as a home match with Norwich on Tuesday (19:45 GMT) is followed by a trip to Derby on Friday (20:00).
