Just need to open that door?

 

[El Turi]

It’s obviously frustrating we didn’t take our chances but it was an excellent performance and a draw isn’t a disaster.

 

[hoof hearted]

Défense solid despite being without Webster. Biss and Mac good. Gross looked very tired 2nd half and I thought Lallana might come on for him. Maupay frustrating. Tross inventive. We are missing March, balance looks a bit one sided

I would have liked to see Moder come on for Gross.

Said it before but we’re going to draw our way to safety this season. Great at denying the other team but not so great at scoring.

why not throw in grealish as well?

if you are going to put Maupay anywhere near Trossard on todays performance then you have zero credibility......Trossard had an above average game , Maupay is just painful to watch recently.

 

[Seagull58]

Was Grealish playing?

 

[London Irish]

u watching the same match - their goalie stopped at least 3 certain goals

Well I just watched the sky showreel of the 9 saves and I’m going to say no, except for Burn they fall into the category of good efficient work, which if he’d have let in, the commentators would have been asking if he should have done better

 

[neilbard]

Frustrating, but we have a VERY good football team. I'm still struggling to come to terms with that

No we don't, in football you need to score goals, we are bereft of this attribute.

 

[DJ NOBO]

Eh? Potency? Since Wolves: 0-1, 1-0, 0-0, 1-0, 1-0, 1-1!

You’re Albion, don’t get greedy.
1 goal = potent.

 

[Icy Gull]

Frustrating but we are a very well coached side who refuse to pay the going rate for a quality striker. TB’s call but we seem to be doing enough to avoid going down. I just hope the academy forward who is going to be “the one” is not only 12 years old at the moment. I want to be alive when we take this division by storm

 

[Seagull]

We play nice football, need a tad more killer instinct in front of goal, probably will all click at some point and we'll stuff someone 4 or 5, hopefully next Monday

 

[BN41Albion]

Martinez Sky MoM.

‘We came here to win.’ Says he.

Utter utter bollox I’m afraid.

They couldn’t have been more set-up for a draw if they tried.

I'm not sure. Considering their position and ours, why would they come for a draw? I think we just set up and played so well that we made it look such a backs to the wall performance from them

 

[TWOCHOICEStom]

Welbeck looked like exactly the player we need. Maupay is shot to bits and making dreadful decisions in every game.

 

[Shirley Seagull]

We did teach them a footballing lesson tonight. But for Martinez, we would of won 3 or 4 nil.

I think someone's gonna get a hiding from us soon...I can sense it!

Palace

 

[Pintos]

Should help propel us up the xG table, which is where it’s really at

 

[BN41Albion]

It really isn't.

Put Kane/Vardy/Salah in our team and problem solved.

This 100%

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Veltman MOTM for me, keeping Villa quiet was key. 0.13 xg for villa. What a defence wehave now

 

[neilbard]

It really isn't.

Put Kane/Vardy/Salah in our team and problem solved.

Bloom wouldn't pay their wages, so pointless comment.

 

[maltaseagull]

People can criticise the finishing, perhaps with some justification, but their keeper was and is class - and the FOOTBALL is remarkable. 1 goal conceded against Liverpool / Spurs / Villa amongst other big tests - in six games! I’m sorry, I’m not gonna put up with negativity tonight - we should be bloody proud lads and lasses!!!!

Totally agreed.
