The West Bromwich Albion manager wanted more players signed before last week’s deadline.
West Brom boss Darren Moore spoke to reporters in the aftermath of his side’s hard-fought 2-1 victory over Stoke City on Saturday, and responded when asked whether he is happy with the strength in depth of his current squad, as quoted by the Express & Star.
The Baggies have begun their 2018/19 campaign in decent fashion, taking 10 points from their opening six Championship outings, and they currently sit in ninth spot in the table.
Saturday’s win over Stoke was absolutely vital heading into the two-week international break, as far as the players’ confidence is concerned.
Moore did add to his squad during the summer transfer window, but he arguably could, and should, have done even more.
The West Brom boss spoke to reporters in the aftermath of his side’s win over Stoke, and insisted that he is more than happy with what he currently has available to him, however, as quoted by the Express & Star:
“This transfer window has been one of the toughest transfer windows I’ve known. We tried [to sign more players] but it’s important not just to get any player in for the sake of it. The transfer window closed with us not bringing in any more players, but we’re quite happy with the squad the way it is. If we can keep them all fit and keep improving them and keep building on performances then we’ll be happy. The international break gives us a chance to look back and reflect and get on the training pitch, get back in the classroom and use it as an education for us to get better.”
The Baggies will be hoping to be somewhere in the mix for the promotion spots come January, where they will once again be able to strengthen their squad if needed.
