Ridgewell: Berahino has "knack for goals"

Former West Bromwich Albion defender Liam Ridgewell has said that striker Saido Berahino has a "knack for goals".

The forward is the top-scoring Englishman in the Premier League so far this season, earning him his first call-up to the senior England squad.

Ridgewell, who joined MLS side Portland Timbers earlier this year, told talkSPORT: "He's a very good player. The good thing about him is that his finishing is huge. He can turn and finish straight off and he has a knack for goals.

"Last year he did very well but had a little dip in form because he is young. But I think this year he has got his head down and screwed on the right way. If he carries on the way he is going, it's only a good thing for West Brom."

Berahino has scored 10 goals in 13 appearances for the England Under-21s.
