There is no denying the importance of West Bromwich Albion’s next two matches in their quest to avoid relegation to League One.

The Baggies have lost all eight games under new head coach Eric Ramsay and are one point ahead of Leicester City in the final relegation zone.

Without the six-point deduction for the Foxes, West Brom would be four points away of safety with 13 games remaining, facing Charlton and Oxford United in their next two.

Charlton is six points ahead of the Baggies, and Oxford is one of just three teams below them, so both are excellent possibilities to stop their winless streak.

However, it is unclear whether England-born tactician Ramsay will still be in the club’s dugout when they meet the Addicks this weekend.

The latest on Eric Ramsay’s future at West Brom.

According to TalkSPORT, the Baggies are pondering the former Minnesota head coach’s future at The Hawthorns following last weekend’s 2-0 Championship loss to Coventry City.

West Brom are already considering a change in the dugout after six weeks with the former Manchester United coach, who has failed to win any of his first eight games.

In addition to conjecture about Ramsay’s future with the club, there has been discussion about who could replace him if the Baggies decide to make a change.

Will Still, the former Southampton head coach, has been named as a possible external replacement, while club legend James Morrison has also been mentioned as an interim till the conclusion of the season.

Still, he only won 0.92 points per game in his first experience managing a team in English football with the Saints earlier this season, indicating that he is not the best man to lead the club out of trouble in the coming months.

However, another former Championship manager is on the market and might join at The Hawthorns as a dream replacement for Ramsay in order to lift the Baggies out of the relegation zone.

The Championship Promotion Winner Who West Brom Should Appoint

West Brom have already tried pragmatists who do not play especially exciting or innovative football with Ryan Mason and Ramsay, and it is evident that it has not worked this season.

So, rather than appointing another similar manager who would use similar strategies and probably produce similar results, the Baggies might take a chance by hiring a head coach like Russell Martin.

The former Scotland international was connected with the post at The Hawthorns before to Ramsay’s appointment, indicating that there is some interest, and he is still available, having been let go by Rangers earlier this season.
