Leandro Trossard has been told he can add something extra for Albion on his return to action.
But the Belgium international should still be targeting more goals and assists, according to his head coach.
Trossard is available to face Watford tomorrow after a positive Covid test ruled him out of the FA Cup exit at Tottenham.
He was left on the bench last time Albion went to Vicarage Road, for a 3-0 win in Potter’s first game in charge at the start of the 2019-20 season.
But he has become a firm favourite since then.
Potter said: “He has grown over his time at the club.
“I always say players are unique but he is because we don’t have a player with the same attributes as he does.
“He can play as an extra midfielder who links up with the attack, to get in behind and score goals.
“His goal against Brentford for example, that’s a really good example of him attacking the backline and finishing.
“That’s what he has done and he has improved.
“But I think there’s more to come from him in terms of adding goals and assists.
“At the same time, he can play the game that helps the team build attacks and get into the final third, to create chances as a collective.”
Alexis Mac Allister was also sidelined by positive Covid tests but he too is now available.
