Steve Clarke: 'We weren't at our best'

West Brom boss Steve Clarke admits that his side were not at their best this afternoon, despite beating Norwich 2-1.

West Bromwich Albion boss Steve Clarke has admitted that his side still haven't recaptured their early season form.

The Baggies ended a four-match winless streak with a 2-1 victory over Norwich City this afternoon, coming from 1-0 down to net the winner in the 82nd minute.

However, Clarke acknowledged that although he was happy to have recorded a win, there is still room for improvement for his side.

"It was another performance where we were a bit scratchy. We are not quite flowing as we were early in the season," said Clarke.

"When you are coming in after four games without a win, there comes a bit more pressure on it.

"We spoke about it before the game. It was a big game for us today and it was important we got the three points."

The result leaves West Brom sixth in the Premier League table, level on points with Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham Hotspur.
