Adam Webster looks back on the 2024/25 campaign as one of transition for Albion.
A new head coach, a raft of new signings and a number of key departures last summer meant that there was a lot contend with for the Albion squad, but the 30-year-old is pleased with the season after we finished eighth in the Premier League.
“I look back on it with mixed emotions. I suppose you always get that over the course of the season. It's been a difficult season for all of us at times," said Webster.

“There have been a lot of challenges. We've had a lot of high moments and a lot of lows, but that's normal. Considering all the injuries and how many players came into a new environment we've done amazingly well this year.
“There's a lot of potential in us still. You saw in the last game against Spurs the difference between the first and second half. In the first half we were okay, but lacked a bit of intensity. Then you saw the difference in the second half from the start and that was more like us us.
“If we can be at that level more consistently we're a match for anyone, we've proven that this season. It's just about doing that on a more consistent basis. We've got a lot of young players, we've got a lot of potential in the squad and it’s really is exciting future for us.”

The centre-back had a tough campaign with injuries, although enjoyed a terrific win record as we recorded victories in nine of the 11 games he started.
"I'm delighted with the way we finished with four wins out of five and personally I really enjoyed my football. It has been a lot of hard work and there’s been some tough moments with injuries and a lot of setbacks.
“We've done really well when I've played, we've won a lot of games and that is a really nice feeling going into the summer.”
