Tony Pulis eyes further FA Cup progress for West Bromwich Albion

West Brom manager Tony Pulis sets his sights on further progress in the FA Cup having booked his place in the fifth round at the expense of Peterborough United.

West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Pulis has set his sights on a good FA Cup run this season having seen his side qualify for the fifth round this evening.

The Baggies were taken all the way by League One side Peterborough United in their replay at London Road before eventually coming through 4-3 on penalties.

Pulis was keen to give credit to Peterborough following a spirited display in which they more than matched their Premier League visitors for long spells, but admitted that his side had felt the effects of being taken to replays in both of their FA Cup ties this season.

"That's what the FA Cup is all about, the smaller team pushing the bigger team to the limit and they did that," Pulis told BBC Sport.

"Credit to them and British football. It is nerve-wracking but Peterborough should take a lot of credit.

"We want to do well in FA Cup but it has certainly affected us with injuries and pressure on the players. I want to do as well in the cup as I have tremendous respect for it."

The Baggies will take on Reading at the Madejski Stadium in the last 16.
