Harvey Barnes has already admitted to the Birmingham Mail that he is trying to keep his head down around West Bromwich Albion midfielder Jake Livermore.

Livermore has earned a reputation of the joker of the West Brom dressing room, after pulling a number of pranks on his teammates.

And Barnes admits that he has already learned that he needs to make sure he stays out of Livermore’s eye-line in the dressing room.

“Jake Livermore is always having everyone off so I try to keep my head down when I’m around him,” Barnes said.

“There’s a fair bit of banter in the dressing room.

“I sit next to Jake and see shoes going everywhere.

“I try and have a bit of banter with him but when clothes start flying and shoes appears in the fridge, I stop!”
