West Bromwich Albion boss Steve Clarke feels that his side's 2-1 win over Swansea City proves tgat they are a match for any team in the Premier League.

A strike from Romelu Lukaku and a Jonathan de Guzman own goal were enough to secure three points for the Baggies despite the Belgian's miss from the penalty spot.

Clarke told the club's official website: "We showed today that, on our day, we can match anyone in the Barclays Premier League.

"Our defeat at Swansea was in our minds and they are a really good team. But we played good football and were aggressive.

"I'm absolutely delighted. It was a really good game between two good teams. We both went for it and I thought we deserved to win it."

West Brom are now seventh in the Premier League.
