    Clearly disappointed...but

    Possibly the best 90 minutes of footballing effort, spirit and commitment this season?
    The quality ( moreso lack of) of our strike force was evident, but to be fair not surprising.
    We have 3 ‘Championship standard’ forwards in Rondon, Rodriguez and Robson-Kanu. To be fair, I believe they give their best, so maybe unfair to direct criticism at them?
    The issue therefore is their replacements next month...we will have to take a flyer on a Premier League wannabe / failure. Probably on loan as we are not an exciting job opportunity given our league position.
    No complaints on commitment as above. No complaints on the footballing endeavours and clearly the team were as disappointed as all of us at final whistle.
    Some positives therefore...maybe too late...let’s hope not!

    At least Pardew is trying to get us playing football again. Id rather see a 0-0 draw like yesterday’s rather than the boring 0-0 that Pulis used to serve up.

    Hear hear. At least fans weren't going home saying "Never again" yesterday.

    The last few games have proved we are capable of creating chances they have also proved we need someone to finish them I would try and get Slimani from Leicester, I think he would suite our system far better than Leicester`s.

    With JP in charge I'm not sure we would have bid anywhere close to the fee Leicester paid.

    I thought that we had shown some serious interest. But when Leicester came in as Premier League champions and with the promise of Champions Leeague football Albion had no chance.
