For the majority of the West Brom squad, it is fair to say that they have had a season to forget in 2017/18. However, in the case of Jay Rodriguez one could say that despite his team's relegation he is well on the road to becoming the player he threatened to be before his horrific injury in 2014.
Of Spanish descent, Rodriguez's father trialled for Deportivo La Coruña before moving to Burnley in the early 1980s and Jay Rodriguez began his career with the Clarets. The young forward burst onto the scene in 2009, earning the goal of the season for his wonderstrike against Nottingham Forest in the same year.
