Kevin Keen feels West Bromwich Albion are capable of winning silverware.

Albion's new joint-No.2 revealed he was a new-born baby when his dad, Mike Keen, lifted the League Cup at Wembley in 1967 following QPR's dramatic 3-2 victory over Albion.

"My cup pedigree goes back a long way, as my dad was captain of QPR back in 1967 when they beat Albion," he told the WBA website.

"That's another connection I have with West Brom because I was born a couple of weeks before that game.

"I've just met Bobby Hope, who obviously played in that game and is still involved with the club as its chief scout.

"I think the FA Cup and the League Cup are really important.

"For the supporters they are really important and they can excite people.

"Liverpool had not won a trophy for six years before last season and the cup victory, along with the FA Cup final appearance, for the city was fantastic.

"Steve's got a great cup record, but there are no guarantees in football and hopefully we can bring some of that excitement, at least in the football we produce.

"Those trophies are certainly targets that we can go for."
