West Bromwich Albion loanee Grzegorz Krychowiak has taken some time to settle at The Hawthorns, with his performances well below the standard expected of a player with his reputation.

West Brom held Liverpool to a goalless draw at Anfield earlier this week, with Krychowiak vital to the Baggies’ performance and, on this evidence, Pardew is about to get something out of the player that Pulis either could not or was unwilling to try.

At his best Krychowiak was regarded as one of the best box-to-box midfielders in Europe and if West Brom can help him rediscover that form, they may not be fighting a relegation scrap long into 2018.
