  20. 'How we never scored more, I just don't know'published at 17:34 British Summer Time 12 August 2017

    West Brom 1-0 Bournemouth

    West Bromwich Albion

    West Brom manager Tony Pulis said: "We want everyone to chip in and the quality we got from set plays today was absolutely fantastic.

    "How we never scored more than one I just don't know. We had the most shots on goal and the most corners. We had really good opportunities and chances, we are not a possession team.

    "Jay Rodriguez has been fantastic during pre-season. He has brought a lot of energy to the football club. He looks as though he is going to score every time he gets the ball. Ahmed Hegazi looks like a really, really good buy. And you have got to give credit to Matt Phillips and Chris Brunt; the quality coming into the box was fantastic."
