Claudio Yacob has proven an inspirational signing by West Bromwich Albion, with his battling style alongside Youssuf Mulumbu in defensive midfield making the Baggies a difficult team to break down.
Yacob has helped West Brom take points from Everton, Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea (twice), Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.
With the Hawthorns side having lost six times in the Premier League by a single goal, new manager Pepe Mel will aim to win the key battles in the club’s remaining fixtures – and Yacob will be crucial.
