    Disappointed .... but a performance to give us hope we can compete.... Chelsea are a top six side.... and given the money they spent they should have beaten us out of sight...... but they didn’t .... and credit to the team and Bilic tonight

    The key works are in your sentence ‘ they should have beaten us out of sight ‘. Perhaps had Bilic not made two stupid subs we would have won!!

    I am not sure the subs made much difference to be honest Al..... we were under the kosh for 80% of that match...... I actually thought HRK did OK as a nuisance factor.... but when you are playing a side that has invested £200m ____ on top of an already decent side.... then you need to ride your luck and ours ran out in the 93 minute.....

    I am actually quite proud of the lads today... they all showed grit, determination and commitment..... what you can’t compensate for is that they were up against superior quality opposition....

    I am with Barrera on this. Of course I am gutted at the result and that Chelsea weren't pulled up for fouls before two of their goals. But I certainly never expected this result. I don't think that anybody could honestly disagree. Chelsea really should have scored in the first half and we got a touch of fortune in that regard. Nevertheless our first half display was really good and the finishing excellent. Disappointed yes, but all the same I think this bodes well for the rest of the season. Albion have shown that they can compete here.

    Fully agree. If you read my opening post on this thread I stated that 'I feared the worst'. This did not materialise and let's all be honest if we'd have been told that we would get a draw out of the game we'd have snapped their hands off.

    Yes, but a draw after being 3 up is disappointing.
