Tony Pulis regrets team selection after Arsenal thrashing

West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Pulis admits that he should have rested several players against Arsenal.

West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Pulis has criticised his team for their disappointing finish to the season at Arsenal.

The Gunners raced into a 3-0 lead after 17 minutes, and added a fourth before half time on their way to a 4-1 victory.

Pulis told BBC Sport: "We looked like a team who have played against Liverpool, Manchester United and Chelsea in the last few weeks. We've had a tough run-in. I think the performance against Chelsea took a lot out of the players. Maybe I should have rested a couple, because they looked jaded.

"It was a disappointment because we'd done so well. We hadn't reached the standards you need. But we were better in the second half."

West Brom finished 13th in the Premier League table.
