With 10 matches to go in the Championship season, West Bromwich Albion are locked in a battle for the play-offs - something which was perhaps unthinkable five months ago.

The Baggies were suffering under Steve Bruce and found themselves in the relegation zone in October, but thanks to a turnaround in results from his replacement Carlos Corberan and the fact that the table was nicely bunched up in terms of points at the time, they find themselves in the race for promotion.

We will see what happens come May and where Albion find themselves, but at some point, Corberan will need to start making decisions as to who will be in his squad for the 2023-24 season depending on which division they end up in.

One of Bruce's final moves before he was sacked earlier in the season was to bolster Albion's midfield with the signing of Tom Rogic, who had been a free agent for months having left Celtic in the summer.

It was somewhat of a surprise that Rogic went months without being picked up by a club - this is a player that has amassed 53 caps for the Australia national team and in his time north of the border in Scotland won six Scottish Premiership titles and five Scottish Cups and League Cups each.

Celtic's loss was eventually seen as West Brom's gain though and Rogic definitely fit the general mould of Bruce's summer signings - free transfers but one of quality and experience, just like John Swift and Jed Wallace were.

It's not entirely gone to plan for the Aussie at The Hawthorns though and it has perhaps been a sign of why he wasn't picked up after all.

He has played just 14 times in the Championship this season and just four of those outings have been from the start - he has picked up a goal and three assists but hasn't completed a 90 minutes with Corberan seemingly favouring other options in the middle of the park.

A recent injury has kept him out of the squad recently but even before that, he wasn't in the 18-man squad for a couple of games due to the fact that Corberan simply had other options ahead of him.

And that isn't a good sign for Rogic's future - his deal expires at the end of the season and with the club holding the option to extend it by a year, his lack of game-time would suggest that West Brom's head coach will look for someone else to fill his spot next season.

That's not to say that Rogic isn't talented at all because he clearly is, but he is 30 years of age now and he's not getting the game-time that he could perhaps be getting elsewhere.

West Brom should do the right thing when the time comes this summer and cut Rogic free - he could have been a great use to the squad and still could be if he manages to turn his performances around in substitute appearances between now and the end of the season, but Albion could get more for their money elsewhere.
