Olsson convinced of big things from West Brom striker Berahino

West Bromwich Albion captain Jonas Olsson says Saido Berahino is sure to have a huge year next season.

Berahino has been through a turbulent few weeks, punched in a dressing room row and caught on film inhaling laughing gas.

But Olsson insists: "It is normal to have ups and downs at that age, but I think he has a really bright future.

"This is his first season of being with the first team and he is the top scorer, so that is some achievement.

"Like any young player he needs guidance, but I think he is very good. The problems in the dressing room that happened after the Cardiff game, well we were naive as a team that day. We had four or five players too far forward.

"The most important thing as a pro is to realise when you've made a mistake and learn. When you are 20 you make lots of mistakes.

"He is improving every week."
