Morrison's contribution to West Brom
James Morrison, a former Scotland international, had been a key figure in the coaching staff since retiring from playing. He was known for his work with the midfielders and his ability to motivate players. Wallace, who joined West Brom in 2022, credited Morrison with helping him adapt to the club's style and improve his game.
The 38-year-old Morrison made over 300 appearances for West Brom during his playing career before moving into coaching. His exit has been met with sadness by fans and players alike, with many taking to social media to share their appreciation.
Wallace's tribute highlights the strong bond between the squad and Morrison, who was seen as a mentor to many younger players. The winger is now focused on the upcoming Championship season, where West Brom will look to build on their recent progress under Corberan.
