Pulis pots West Brom keeper Foster for cavalier Liverpool approach

West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Pulis has reprimanded goalkeeper Ben Foster for his cavalier approach against Liverpool.

Albion suffered a 1-0 defeat to Liverpool at The Hawthorns on Sunday and the Baggies could have easily lost by twice the margin if Alberto Moreno had not squandered a wonderful chance to score with an open net at his mercy during the final minutes of the game.

The reason why Moreno was handed the opportunity to score in an unguarded goal was due to West Brom's Foster going up to the other end during a corner in search for an equaliser and Pulis has now revealed that he has spoken to the 34-year-old for his gung-ho actions.

Pulis said: "I've just had a chat with Ben.

"I don't like keepers going up for corners personally but I've never said it to Ben so he didn't know. He does now!"
