Romelu Lukaku scored one and set up two in West Brom's fiery 3-0 victory at Southampton, in a game which saw three men given their marching orders.

West Brom boss Steve Clarke was impressed with the improvement in his side. "It was important that we got the first goal," he said. "We talked about it beforehand and made sure that we started well. "It was almost the perfect away performance." Southampton boss Mauricio Pochettino was critical of his side's woeful display. "From my point of view we just didn't start in the game," Pochettino told Sky Sports. "We didn't feel comfortable, especially when we conceded the first goal in the sixth minute. "Then we became a bit fearful of their attacking strikers, who were quite fast, strong and physically fit."
