Clarke high-spirited after West Brom force Arsenal draw

West Bromwich Albion boss Steve Clarke was in a jubilant mood after his side took Arsenal to a 1-1 draw at The Hawthorns on Sunday.

The Baggies followed on from last weekend's 2-1 victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford by grabbing a point against the league leaders to move up to 12th on the table, which has delighted the manager.

"I'm pleased with the players for another good game against another top team," said Clarke.

"On the back of what we did at Old Trafford four points from these two games is a good return for us.

"But it's not just the fact we're getting results against top teams it's that we're in the game. We look a good team.

"It was a good game between two good teams. I thought we more than deserved the point."
