(Reuters) - West Bromwich Albion manager Alan Pardew will decide his transfer strategy by the end of the week and has confirmed that the club were interested in signing striker Danny Ings from Premier League rivals Liverpool in January. "I'd be foolish not to say I don't like Danny Ings because I quite like him," Pardew told a news conference on Tuesday. West Brom, who have not won a league match since August, have slipped to 18th in the standings and Pardew says he is acting as a psychologist to help his players deal with the pressure. I'm the psychologist," Pardew said when asked if the club had employed one. All three relegation-threatened teams face top-six sides on Wednesday, with West Brom travelling to fifth-placed Liverpool and needing a reversal of form to end a 14-game winless run.
