Carson will use West Brom to make his mark in the Premier League

West Bromwich Albion keeper Scott Carson insists both he and the Baggies want to stay in the Premiership.

Carson, was part of the Albion side most recently relegated from the top flight in 2008-09.

But they are keen to make their swift stays a thing of the past and Carson hopes he can play his part in the club's steady rise, rebuilding his stock in the process.

The 24 year old is back in the big time and asked whether he has unfinished business, the keeper said: "Yes, definitely. Most of the football that I've played in my career has been in the Premier League and everyone wants to play there.

"I want to try and cement this club as a Premier League side and cement myself as a Premier League goalkeeper for the next six to 10 years.

"We're one of the clubs that have this yo-yo tag and, as a group of players, we want to play at the highest level and that's the Premier League.

"So we want to try to end this tag."

Carson is now a more assured stopper and he sees an opportunity to force his way into the England reckoning, especially considering events at the World Cup in South Africa.

"I'm pretty confident this season if I can play well and consistently then hopefully I've got a chance of getting back in the England set-up, which is what I want to do," he added.
