Tammer Bany

Bany plays with an intensity that stands out even among energetic Championship midfielders, sprinting to close down defenders and win the ball back high up the pitch rather than waiting in a settled shape. That work off the ball is paired with genuine technical ability, a player who wants to keep possession and create rather than simply hand it off to a teammate. He looks to make something happen himself once he has won the ball back.

His debut assist within his first appearance hinted at exactly that blend of running and craft that persuaded West Brom to spend so heavily on him. Injury disrupted his early months in England, which is always a difficult way for a big signing to introduce himself. Whether his pressing and creativity return once he strings together a proper run of fitness remains the open question.
