West Brom: Mowbray insisting on better home form

Mar 4 2009 by Christopher Lepkowski, Birmingham Mail

TONY Mowbray believes Albion will need to take maximum points from their next four home games to stand any chance of survival.

The Baggies are in danger of being cut adrift at the foot of the Premier League after losing to Arsenal last night.

But the Albion boss claims that 12 points from games against Bolton, Stoke, Sunderland and Wigan would give his side a decent chance of staying up.

“I haven’t set a points tally because I don’t know how the other teams are going to do around us,” said Mowbray.

“What I do know is we’ve got to go and win some games.

“We do have the home games against Sunderland, Wigan, Bolton and Stoke.

“Those teams will ask questions. They’ll put the ball in your box.

“But come those days, hopefully the crowd are still there and still supportive.

“We’ve had some good days at home this season and hopefully there will be more.”

Mowbray insisted that there could be no more defensive calamities.

“We’ve talked about it for many weeks and yet tonight it’s the same goals, same problems and same individuals,” he added.

“I have changed it – I’ve changed the individuals, the players and yet the goals still keep going in.
