PICK A NUMBER: Michal Danek
HAVE you got a head for figures?
Well, in our weekly feature for the 2007/08 season, we find out whether the Albion players and coaching staff have.
Every Tuesday, a member of the Baggies camp will randomly pick 15 questions to answer from a colourful selection of 40 puzzlers.
We will then put them under the spotlight.
Today, we quiz new goalkeeper Michal Danek.
Q2: What is your favourite ice-cream?
MD: Chocolate ice-cream is my favourite!
Q7: What was the last album you downloaded to your ipod?
MD: It was an album by a Czech band called 'Wanastovy Veci' I don't think many people over here would know them. They are a rock band.
Q5: If you were Prime Minister, what one change to the country would you make?
MD: There is too much to mention. I would want to change all politics!
Q15: What was your best and worst subject at school?
MD: My best was sports, of course, and my worst was economics. I was rubbish at that and I didn't like it very much at all.
Q17: Which team did you support as a boy?
MD: FC Baník Ostrava. I still support them now.
Q23: What keeps you awake at night?
MD: Not much really, although my girlfriend is expecting our first child soon so she is keeping me awake a bit at the moment.
Q25: Property aside, what is the most expensive thing you have bought?
MD: Other than my car, it would have to be a watch. I'm not telling how much though!

Q10: Who did you have a schoolboy crush on?
MD: It was a girl at school when I was about 16. I had a crush on her for a few years!
Q26: What was the first record you ever bought?
MD: It was by a Czech band called 'Kabát'. I can't remember how old I was. Their name is tabak spelt backwards which means tobacco. They called the band that because they smoked!
Q32: What is your greatest achievement in football?
MD: The best moment is being here at Albion. My greatest achievement was playing in a semi-final against Holland in the Under-16s national final when we won 2-0 and went onto the final.
Q37: Who is your favourite cartoon character?
MD: I really liked the Smurfs when I was younger. It was always on telly, I didn't have the toys or anything like that though.
Q14: What is your favourite other sport?
MD: I like tennis and ice hockey. I play both of them when I can.
Q40: If you were cooking to impress, what dish would you select?
MD: I went to a chefs' college so I know how to cook quite well. Hopefully any dish I chose would impress!
Q38: Would you like to be a manager one day?
MD: Yes, I definitely would. I want to be involved in football for as long as possible after I've finished playing.
Q18: What song would you choose if ordered to take part in karaoke?
MD: It would be by a Czech band 'Nohavica' and the song 'Udou po me udou' which means 'they go for me'. It's a good song to sing on the karaoke.
