West Bromwich Albion midfielder James Morrison says the latest international break is timely, so he can fully recover from an ankle injury.

"It's not right at the moment," the 29-year-old told BBC WM 95.6.

"I'm struggling to get it better - this break's going to be crucial for me to get my body right."

"It's been a funny one - I just planted my foot against Crystal Palace and something happened," Morrison added.

"I'm working hard and I can deal with it at the moment, but this break will be nice for me to get it right and get some fitness and sharpness back and continue my form from the start of the season."
