SAMUEL Iling-Junior says there are no complaints about the long trips to Norwich tonight and Millwall on Saturday as Albion go in search of six Championship points.

- By DAN NEWBOULD

Ryan Mason's men have a busy few days ahead as they prepare to travel around 600 miles for the pair of encounters, but Iling-Junior insists he is excited for the challenge, especially having scored a special solo goal in the 1-1 draw with Leicester at The Hawthorns on Friday.

The Villa loanee admitted: “We know we've got a big week coming up with the two long trips to Norwich and Millwall. There are two ways you can look at the week. You can complain about it, or you can just get on with it. I like to get on with things.

“Three points in both games would be perfect and that’s what's on our mind, not the distance or the fact we're away. We've got a job to do and we'll be doing our best to make sure we head home with two victories.
