Brunt: Ideye, Berahino form key to West Brom survival

Chris Brunt says West Bromwich Albion's survival chances depend on Saido Berahino and Brown Ideye.

The strike-pair have rediscovered their best form under manager Tony Pulis.

"With the threats we've got from set-pieces and with Saido and Brown looking dangerous over the last few weeks we are always in with a chance of winning games," said Brunt.

"That's how it's panned out in the last few games and hopefully that will continue.

"The gaffer came in and we've all seen that with a change in manager things happen.

"Things have just clicked for Brown over the last couple of weeks and, fair-play to him, he has taken his chances well.

"He is working hard for the team and that's the main thing and he will get his benefits from that.

"Saido is Saido - he's a fantastic finisher and the gaffer gets on his case and gets him working hard for the team.

"He's a fantastic talent and we've seen that over the last couple of weeks."
