How can we expect to bum teams when we're missing literally all of our most creative players?

Pienaar, Deulofeu, Barkley.

Seeing Osman continue to get game time is just saddening. Will he start the derby too? Might as well hand them the points.

We desperately need the injured players to come back in asap. And just when it looks like it may be the last league game the three miss, there goes Coleman's hamstring. Couldn't make it up!
 
I was happy with our performance and more importantly the point. We were too open first half and allowed you to create to many chances. We corrected that at half time and made the game more compact and we were able to get a strong foothold. I thought Anichebe was good for ourselves and offered us a much needed presence. Someone who could retain the ball and bring others into play.

You've had a good season, don't let one mediocre performance get in the way of that. You have a good squad of players who are still being moulded into the way Martinez wants you to play. You're going to have hiccups and tonight was just, a hiccup. You'll still be in and around the top four come the end of the season and the January additions will only strengthen that claim. Don't feel so downhearted.
 

Obviously disappointed we drew (again) but the game is hardly a complete write off.

But, as usual, we'll head into the derby feeling sorry for ourselves.
 
Was quite surprised how our players constantly just allowed Victor to back into them and release the ball. As if it took them by surprise what he was doing, when in fact it's the only trick he's got.
 
any point away from home is seen as good by some on here, its the mentality that the players sadly seem to have which is why we haven't a hells chance of top 4, its okay winning when our rivals win, but when they drop points and we play a ****e team we need to get the win.

Had we turned up and played like we normally do we win, but the same problem that we had last season is still here: any club outside the top 10 or so we play/any chance of taking the initative in the top 4 race we **** up. Had W. Brom come out and played us off the park like Sunderland did under Di Canio at home to roaring fans with new manager syndrome I could understand, but they were ****e, their fans were ****e and we just didn't look arsed, no urgency, no movement, no passion, no desire, sluggish on the ball and a cant be arsed mentality all game. The worst ive seen us play all season.

Pretty much how I feel.

I was more surprised how far back barry and mccarthy sat in that 2nd. Just invited their midfield lads to take their time and weigh up options. Played too deep for me. We seemed absolutely petrified of anelka but for some reason he was free time and time again.
