da gbg bet: Sky Sports commentator Gary Taphouse has called West Brom’s move for former Celtic midfielder Tom Rogic a ‘really good signing’.
The Lowdown: Rogic signs
da bet7: The Baggies have taken advantage of the free agent market all summer and officially brought in Rogic on Monday before also adding defender Erik Pieters 24 hours later.
The 29-year-old left the Scottish giants over the summer and has now penned a one-year deal at The Hawthorns. Rogic is primarily an attacking midfielder but can also play on the right or as a second striker.
The Latest: Taphouse reacts
Taking to Twitter, Sky Sports man Taphouse reacted to the news of Rogic joining West Brom.
The commentator described the move as a ‘really good signing for the Baggies’ and hinted at a first chance to see the Aussie in action against Birmingham on Wednesday.
The Verdict: On the bench tonight?
Reports have suggested that Rogic is unlikely to feature this evening against Birmingham due to a lack of match fitness. However, it could make sense for Steve Bruce to include the Australia international on the bench at The Hawthorns.
The Baggies have only scored twice in a game on two occasions this season, so Rogic’s creativity could prove handy as the game goes on if the home side need a breakthrough.
