Pulis hails West Brom match-winner Rondon

Tony Pulis expressed delight at Salomon Rondon's performance after his first Premier League goal led West Brom to 1-0 away win over nine-man Stoke City on Saturday.
The former Potters boss was warmly received by the Stoke fans on his first return to the club and was provided a straightforward victory as first-half red cards for Ibrahim Afellay and Charlie Adam allowed West Brom to take command.
Rondon immediately capitalised on the numerical advantage with a match-winning header from substitute Rickie Lambert's far-post cross in first-half injury time, and Pulis thinks there will be more to come from the club's record signing.
"First half when the players are sent off I thought we did okay and Salomon scored a great goal," the Welsh boss said.
"When it was 11 against 11, they looked the better side, they looked more threatening, although we probably had the best chance with James Morrison's [shot], from which [Stoke goalkeeper Jack] Butland has made an unbelievable save.
