Adam Webster has acknowledged his mistake which cost Albion a goal at Chelsea.

But he said the game ca look easy from the stand – and thanked fans for their backing.

Webster’s short back pass let in the home side for the first goal in their 4-2 win at Stamford Bridge.

He was brought into the side due to injury to Jan Paul van Hecke.

Webster pulled off a brilliant clearance to prevent Nicolas Jackson adding to the tally.

He posted on Instagram on Saturday evening, telling followers: “Hold my hands up my mistake for the first goal which let them back in the game. Mistakes happen. Always looks easy from the stands or tv.

“Great away support as per thanks for sticking with us, big week ahead to work even harder and bounce back.”

Albion goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen quickly liked the post.
