Howe praised the rest of the squad for standing up to West Bromwich Albion:"I think the belief we have in the team, I believe in the squad we've got, but ultimately that belief needs to be manifested in terms of results, and today we got our reward for really a lot of hard work, a lot of hard work during pre-season, I'm really delighted for the players.
"Anytime you play West Brom, we played them last year, they're incredibly tight, they're a really tough side to break down, they're a tough side to score against, a tough side to create chances against, and we saw that in the game today, they're very well drilled, organised, they're physical.
"Overall we've come out on top in areally tight game with a clean sheet, so it's been a really good afternoon."
The manager brought onJack Wilshere after 61 minutes, which is due to alack of match fitnessNBC reports. Howe said:I've got to make sure I do ride by Jack and the team and I just felt half an hour was his limit today.
"We're building him up in terms of fitness and everything else behind the scenes but we've got to do it in a careful way. We want to protect him and make sure that when he plays he's able to produce his very best."
