Profile: An Albion legend who could just as easily play at centre-half as centre midfield, Robson had everything.

He could tackle, pass, score goals and should have been an England regular without having to leave for Manchester United to achieve it.

And all this despite breaking his leg three times at the start of his Albion career.

Robson joined Albion for Manchester United for a then-record fee of £1.5million.

At Old Trafford, he won a clean sweep of the domestic honours as well as the European Cup Winners' Cup and captained England on a regular basis. After retiring as a player, he has managed Middlesbrough and Bradford City.
