Roy calls for Baggies focus

ROY HODGSON believes his West Brom players need to concentrate on their own game rather than worry about the threat posed by Stoke ahead of their Premier League fixture tonight.

Hodgson has not ignored the danger of Stoke’s set-pieces and Rory Delap’s long throw-ins but has spent time working out how to hurt Stoke.

A win at Stoke for the first time in 28 years would take West Brom through the 30-point barrier and leave them only two behind Tony Pulis’ men.
