Solly March has started all of Albion's Premier League games so far this campaign.

Solly March thinks home form is the key to bettering last season’s records points haul.

Albion have already started well in that vein, winning two of their opening three Amex games this season and will be aiming to extend that run against Tottenham on Saturday.

“The morale is high in the team, we’re really together. Maybe playing away from home suits us better, but if we can get more home wins this season we could do a lot better and that’s the plan,” he said.

“Momentum is key. We’re still early in the season but if we can build on what [head coach] Roberto [De Zerbi] wants, it could be a great season.

Solly March setup Leandro Trossard for his second goal at Anfield last Saturday.

“I think people will have taken note of our performance in the first 20 minutes against Liverpool. If we can play like that for a full 90 minutes on a regular basis we can have a really great season.”

The 28-year-old says everyone is looking to impress the new head coach.

“It’s been good working under Roberto, it’s intense. He has tried to get a lot information in, so as the weeks we go on the better we are going to understand the way he wants us to play. It’s exciting.

“The sessions are shorter and sharper I would say. It’s been a good start. When a new manager comes in it’s a clean slate for everyone, we all want to try and make an impression on him and show him what we can do, especially on the pitch.”
