In the West Brom vs. Hull City match, Alex Mowatt’s outstanding performance has made it an easy decision for Carlos Corberan, the team’s manager. West Brom is currently in fifth place in the Championship, just one point behind Southampton in fourth and two points behind Leeds United in third, following their 3-1 victory over Hull City. Jed Wallace, Matt Phillips, and Semi Ajayi were the goal scorers in the game held at The Hawthorns on November 4th.
While the entire team played exceptionally well, midfielder Alex Mowatt was particularly impressive. According to Sofascore, the 28-year-old Mowatt had a remarkable 92% pass success rate, provided one key pass, and won all five of his ground duels, achieving a 100% success rate in this regard. Additionally, he made the highest number of tackles in the match (four), contributed with one clearance and one blocked shot.
This performance surely pleased his boss, but it also raises questions about Mowatt’s long-term future at the club. Mowatt’s contract with West Brom is set to expire in June 2024, and while Carlos Corberan has his sights set on promotion, securing Mowatt’s commitment for a few more seasons should be a top priority. West Brom will face Southampton in their next match on November 11th, and Mowatt’s presence from the starting lineup will be crucial as they aim to maintain their impressive form.
