West Brom boss Clarke delighted seeing Lukaku on scoresheet

West Bromwich Albion boss Steve Clarke was delighted seeing Romelu Lukaku on the scoresheet in victory over Liverpool.

Lukaku is on-loan from Chelsea.

"It was pleasing for Romelu to score," said Clarke. "He probably thought he should start, but I have fantastic options on the bench.

"For any striker, scoring their first goal in the Premier League will give them confidence. He's a handful, that's for certain. If he keeps performing like that, then he is pushing me to start him and I want that competition."
