Former West Bromwich Albion striker Garry Thompson believes Adam Armstrong needs more support up front to unlock his full potential.

Armstrong has scored just twice for the Baggies since joining on loan from Premier League side Southampton in January.

"He needs people around him at times," Thompson told BBC Radio WM.

"He's a poacher, he's a finisher so I think you need to get someone around him, then he can play off them and he will score goals.

"The kid scores goals anyway but if he doesn't get the opportunities in the area, he's not going to score.
