aside from the first 10 minutes when we started like a bat out of hell we were fairly poor. and after Silva went off we offered virtually nothing going forward and were horribly uninventive...which is a shame because youd think Nasri would step up with Silva off. he didnt and he didnt vs Sunderland either.
but at this point in the season, who cares. 3 points is 3 points.
in the summer we need to shore up the defense...badly.
ive stuck behind Pellegrini all season and I still do but its worrying that he cant seem to get his players to get up for all the games and to play with consistent effort and energy.

I agree with your last point, it's something that's been worrying me too.
On Nasri, he was an excellent block away from adding a fourth and that was an excellent one two he played with Jovetic to set Dzeko up. He's no Silva but who is?

I thought kompany showed real fire in his belly last night and leads by example.
Shame he has that wobbly few mins around 80 mins. His head went awol.

In the second half West Brom seemed more concerned with protecting their goal difference than trying to do anything to affect the game's outcome.
Was a good night for some of our less consistent performers. I was impressed with Dzeko, showed skill, power and pace at times. MDM was excellent.
Nasri played really well and if Silva is injured he's got to be our best chance of unlocking Palace.
Aguero made a huge difference but I wasn't convinced he was fully fit; anyone else think this?
Wonderwall wrote: Agreed, Aguero looked to be hobbling, but he does have a very strange walk, like his thighs are too wide for his body. WBA's approach the game was very strange, they set up to counter attack with pace, which they did on a couple of occasions with one of them paying off. However, they seemed to time waste when losing 3-1? The ball was with Olson on the far side of the penalty area and the ref blew for offside against us, so instead of Olson giving the ball to foster, he just left it on the far side and foster walked over to get it and then brought it back to the centre to the the freekick. I can guarantee that every one of us would be screaming at our players if they did that.
