'I don't have an ego about my tactics' - Mowbray

Tony Mowbray saw his side beat Portsmouth 5-1 at the Hawthorns

West Bromwich Albion boss Tony Mowbray spoke to BBC Radio WM after his side convincingly beat relegation threatened Portsmouth 5-1 to move up to fifth in the table.

"The first 20 minutes we were under the cosh and were caught out a bit, they pressed really high and really well.

"When we did get the first goal it unleashed us and probably put some demons in their minds - our two wide players were so good today.

"I have to inspire my team and I don't have an ego about my tactics - I have an understanding that if I give these talented players a licence and space to express themselves then we can win a lot of football matches."
