Dorrans like a new boy - Hodgson

by Setanta Staff , 26 January 2012 football news

Roy Hodgson claims the return of midfielder Graham Dorrans to full fitness this term is like having new player in the West Brom ranks.


The Baggies chief has never really seen the best of the Scotland international since he took charge at the Hawthorns nearly 12 months ago, most notably because of a long-term ankle setback suffered in training.

But Dorrans is now fit and has made the most of opportunities opened up to him by injuries to Youssouf Mulumbu, Chris Brunt and Paul Scharner in recent weeks.

Albion head coach Hodgson said: "It's good to see that Graham Dorrans is getting better match by match. We're beginning to see the best of him because he is getting a run of games and that is benefiting his fitness.

"I've been at the club almost a year now and a large part of that time for Graham has been spoilt by injury. I'm now finding a new player who is a gifted footballer."
