Oliver Burke has suggested that the West Brom side have been magnificent in training and that he is confident that it is only a matter of time before they end their long wait for a win, the Express and Star reports.

The Baggies started the season incredibly encouragingly, winning both of their opening two matches. However, since then, West Brom have not won another league game and now find themselves in the Premier League’s bottom three.

There have certainly been some positive signs – especially since Tony Pulis was replaced by Alan Pardew as manager – and Burke believes that those three points are just around the corner for the Baggies based on what he has seen in training.

“In training we’ve been magnificent,” he said, as reported by the Express and Star. “The training sessions have been fantastic.

“We’ve been very sharp and we’re all ready to go – we’re just waiting for that moment, waiting for that one game where we can grab that win and really go for it.

“I feel as though we’re coming along. It’s just a matter of time now. Hopefully in the next game we can pull it off. We’ve got some fantastic players; players with bags of experience.”

They certainly have a brilliant chance to end that wait for a win in their next game as they travel to Stoke, who seem to be desperately low on confidence right now.

Mark Hughes’ men have lost their last three, conceding five against Tottenham at Wembley and then letting in three when they faced West Ham at the weekend.

With home games against Everton and Arsenal ahead after the trip to the bet365 Stadium, Pardew’s men could certainly do with ending their long wait for a win this Saturday as they will not want to be cut adrift from the sides currently sat outside the relegation zone.
