Eric Ramsay Outlines Clear Plan as New West Brom Head Coach Before Middlesbrough Debut

West Brom remain 18th in the Championship, setting up an immediate test of Ramsay’s clarity-and-organization approach on Friday night.

Overview

  • Ramsay, 34, has replaced Ryan Mason after ten straight losses, with Albion 18th and seven points above the relegation zone.
  • He arrives from MLS side Minnesota United after two seasons that included playoff runs and a club-record points haul in 2025, having previously coached at Chelsea and Manchester United.
  • The new head coach emphasizes clarity, organization and defined expectations, targeting control with and without the ball and day-to-day consistency.
  • He has worked with the squad for only a couple of days and will debut at The Hawthorns against second-placed Middlesbrough in a televised Friday fixture he called a “perfect start.”
  • Owner Shilen Patel said the club does not regret appointing Mason and described Ramsay’s hiring as the result of an extensive process, reiterating promotion as the long-term aim.
