West Bromwich Albion manager Tony Pulis has slammed his players for wasting too many opportunities in Saturday's Premier League 1-0 home defeat to Southampton.
The Baggies struggled to convert their chances at The Hawthorns and were punished when Jordy Clasie struck what turned out to be the winner for the Saints.
Pulis told Sky Sports News: "We've had good opportunities and good chances to score goals again. I think in the last two games we've had 38 efforts on goal but we're just not getting enough on target.
"That was certainly the case today. We were in good positions and we're not hitting the target. But you can't fault the effort of the players, especially in the second half.
"We really, really put them under pressure and we needed a break. We haven't had it that last two games."
West Brom remain eighth in the Premier League table, four points ahead of ninth-placed Southampton.
