Available Sunday evening.
How much better we look. Optimism continues to grow.
better team . should have got 3 pts . thank f**k we didnt lose.
Need to tighten up at the back....BIG TME! Bent I guess has to start, deserved point if not 3....Holman put your feet up son.
Deserved all three. Benteke should make way for Bent.
Benteke's lack of confidence a concern, but overall good to see some fighting spirit.
Spurs theoretically should put 6 past us, but this is football we're talking about.
Mostly good first half, mostly poor second. Deserved the draw.
We show some signs of quality but seem to run out of steam / ideas in the second half of games. Need to shore up the defence or we;re going to struggle more than necessary this season.
First half, we had all the game after a wobbly 10 mins but just could not score. Second half, we forgot to come out of the dressing room and players started to tire like Marc, Gabby and Holman. Goal put us back and if Baggies had left Long on we might have lost it. But luckily Bent came on to score after another lucky block from the Baggies. Feel disappointed but we did not win but it is not going to be dull this season.
Leaving Bent on bench was a mistake but at least we didn't lose. Benteke looks like he has some learning to do but didn't play badly on overall. Holman probably MOTM for me.
Hmm...worst league start since tv invented football apparently. All well and good saying we looked ok but November is a bitch of a month so we're going to have to get a win or two on the board over the next few weeks.
didnt think we did to bad. dunno what elsed to saY, holman was good. got 12 cans left, ryder cp n curry. . .
Heart in mouth stuff all game. Great derby.
Bit of a curate's egg that. Overall I'm pretty pleased though. The big concern is the defence which looks ropey against movement up front. More games together should help improve things.
I thought holman, kea were our best players. Nice to have attacking options on the bench. I thought all 3 did well in the end, though for a while it looked like we'd lost hope
I hope that Kneejerk 'shower of shit comments' like we had on the match thread don't become too prevalent. We've a very young team that's going to be up and down between and within games. On another day we'd have been one or two up earlier
Overall, I thought there was much to be pleased about and quite a bit to work on
And I love that we tried to win the game after we scored
