West Brom’s game against Huddersfield Town was the tale of two lengthy halves as Slaven Bilic’s men ran out 4-2 winners at the Hawthorns on Sunday afternoon.

The home side extended their unbeaten start to the Championship season and at the same time condemned Danny Cowley’s new team to an eighth game without a victory.

The league’s basement boys took the lead twice in the first half to give the Baggies a scare, but the introduction of West Ham loanee Grady Diangana at half-time was enough to inspire yet another comeback.

No team has picked up more points from a losing position than West Brom, and as we have previously highlighted here, they are flirting with fire by doing so.

The 21-year-old’s impact in the second half turned the game on its head as Albion hit three goals without reply with Diangana assisting two of them.

His whipped cross was met by right-back Darnell Furlong to level the game on the 70th minute before setting up Matty Phillips’ second of the match just four minutes later. He somehow beat four of the Huddersfield defence to tee up the Scot on the edge of the box.

Diangana’s devastating display only highlights the potential at which Bilic’s attack can play with when everyone is on their game.

The winger also recorded five successful dribbles and two key passes, as well as a 93.3% passing accuracy, per WhoScored. That was the highest in the squad of anyone to play more than a single pass.

The Terriers may have leaked more goals than any other side barring Stoke in the Championship this season, but that shouldn’t play down just how lethal West Brom were.

Just think of how many goals they are going to score when £4m summer signing Charlie Austin starts to find his feet. His record in this league is excellent, scoring 68 goals in 137 appearances, per Transfermarkt.

Diangana can be a big part of that, provided they keep hold of him past the January transfer window as West Ham have a recall clause. He could well stay in the west Midlands considering the Hammers are in such great form, sitting inside the top five in the Premier League.
