Steve Clarke blasts "worst performance of the season"

West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke describes his side's display during their 4-0 defeat to Norwich City as their worst of the season.

West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke has described his side's display during their 4-0 defeat to Norwich City as their worst of the season.

The Baggies suffered their fifth defeat in seven games on Saturday and Clarke was far from impressed with his players' effort.

"We were very disappointing," he told BBC Sport. "From the off, Norwich were on top of us. We couldn't get a foothold and were second best for most of the game.

"It was definitely the worst performance of the season by a considerable distance.

"It's not the kind of performance you associate West Brom with and we want better next week. They were sharper, brighter and had more energy from the first minute."

The last time that West Brom conceded four goals in one game was at Manchester City in April last year.
