West Bromwich Albion's resurgence under manager James Morrison continued with a commanding 2-0 victory at Preston North End, but the boss is keeping his feet firmly on the ground. The win, powered by goals from strikers Josh Maja and Daryl Dike, extends the Baggies' unbeaten streak to eight games and provides a crucial five-point cushion above the Championship's relegation scrap.

Despite the positive momentum, Morrison is refusing to declare his team safe. In a post-match interview with BBC Radio WM, he emphasized the unpredictable nature of the league, stating, "You never know with this league, what it can come up with, what it can give you because it's full of surprises." His focus remains on the daily grind, adding, "We'll enjoy the moment and then we're back in tomorrow. The players have got to work, we can't get away from the end goal."

Morrison was full of praise for his team's professional display at Deepdale, describing the performance as "magical." He highlighted the collective effort, a clean sheet, and the strikers finding the net as the perfect recipe for an away win. "It was a performance where we were under pressure, but I didn't feel we played with that pressure," he said, commending the players' hard work and the electric connection with the traveling fans at the final whistle.

This disciplined and resilient approach is exactly what's needed in the grueling Championship season. As the Baggies build confidence with each positive result, the focus shifts to maintaining this standard and securing their status in the division, one game at a time.
