Quique Sanchez Flores praised Watford's efforts against West Brom after the Hornets picked up their second point of the Premier League season.
Flores' side enjoyed large swathes of possession in their first home Premier League game since 2007, but could not find their way through a resolute West Brom defence.
"I am happy with the performance of the team," the Spaniard told BBC Sport. "We planned for the match and it was difficult to play against West Brom.
"We tried to find space to attack and created chances. West Brom are solid at the back. We were close to getting a good result."
Strike duo Odion Ighalo and Troy Deeney were both guilty of wasting a number of chances, and were unable to stretch Boaz Myhill in the Albion goal.
In the end Watford were grateful to hang onto a point after Saido Berahino's late miss, but Flores was happy to see his team - who held Everton to a 2-2 draw on the opening day - once again show they can compete in the top flight.
"The players feel good and are full of confidence," Flores admitted. "They are competitive in the matches."
