West Brom manager Steve Clarke says wantaway stricker Peter Odemwingie still has a future at the club, and insists his omission against Liverpool 'wasn't an additional punishment'.

The Nigerian found himself in hot water with the Baggies after trying to seal a January transfer deadline day move to QPR after driving to london to speak to R's.

.
The 31-year-old was in the squad that surprised the Reds with a 2-0 scalp at Anfield on Monday, although he watched the game from the stands, but Clarke said that decision was merely tactical and was not further punishment for the player.
.
