I have got that in the locker - Johnston
West Bromwich Albion winger Mikey Johnston says that their 2-1 win over Preston North End came as "a relief" as the Baggies re-entered the top six in the Championship.
After West Brom scored twice through Johnston and Isaac Price, North End scored in the 78th minute to apply pressure to the hosts, looking especially dangerous over the 11 minutes of added time, but Albion held out to take all three points and rise up to fifth.
"I feel as if it's happened a couple of times this season where we are hanging on, so it's probably something we need to address just to kill games out," Johnston told BBC Radio WM.
