Steve Clark believes that Aston Villa deserve respect for their league position.

West Bromwich Albion manager Steve Clarke has insisted that his side "deserve respect" for their performance so far in the Premier League.

There was controversy surrounding their second goal in the 2-1 win over Queens Park Rangers, but Clarke was keen to focus on how well his team played.

"I want to talk about having 33 points after 19 games," BBC Sport quotes Clarke as saying.

"Up until they scored we had complete control and people should give us respect.

"There was a gulf between the teams. We passed the ball well, created some half-chances, while they looked like a team at the bottom of the table."

The win moved West Brom back up to fifth in the Premier League.
