Roberto De Zerbi has some big decisions – as Albion aim for another club first.
And they do not all involve Leandro Trossard, who has not appeared since the hour-mark against Arsenal.

De Zerbi will speak to the media today and is sure to be asked about Trossard’s form and fitness.
The Seagulls host Liverpool tomorrow aiming for their first-ever top-flight win at home to the Anfield outfit at the tenth attempt.
Adam Webster’s return to fitness has put him in the running for a return to the XI at the back, although Levi Colwill has impressed.
Meanwhile Danny Welbeck looks to be pushing Evan Ferguson to start up front.
Webster has not started in the league since the 3-2 win at Wolves on November 5.
He came back from a calf muscle problem late in the cup win over Middlesbrough and said: “You can see the squad - everyone is so hungry and everyone wants to be playing.
“That drives you every day. The way the gaffer has got us working each day at training, we are all going to improve.”
Colwill has a strong case to keep his place while Ferguson has scored in the last two league games.
Joel Veltman could return at right-back and Alexis Mac Allister appears a strong contender to start after his two goals as a half-time substitute at the Riverside.
