West Brom fitness coach Garner hails Berahino work ethic

West Brom fitness coach Ben Garner says Saido Berahino is working overtime to reach top shape.

After a flurry of three goals in four games, the 22-year-old has failed to find the net in his last three.

"Tuesday's session, that's the best I've seen Saido in training since I've come to the club," Garner told the Birmingham Mail.

"He looked really sharp, he looked hungry and he was excellent, which is great.

"He was in all of last week, he didn't have any days off so he trained every day, worked really hard and showed a good attitude towards it.

"Because it's competition for places, I think it's every player's responsibility to be as fit as they possibly can be to make the best of their ability.

"Saido has got wonderful talent, but it's up to him to be in peak physical condition to make the most of that talent."
