Another Goaless Draw

Given our injuries, the fact that we were mostly outplayed and Swansea could have had a penalty,
I'll take the point
An outstanding display from Collins in defence he made so many last ditch clearances,his blocking is second to none.Another solid performance from Adrian,he really is proving himself a top goalie.
We don't look like scoring at the moment and it is painfully obvious Westham need some pace up front.
Jelavic up front ,try as he did ,was about as effective as playing Carroll or Cole up front,it doesn't work..none of them have good movement to play that role....when will Bilic see this.We might as well be playing with 10 men a lot of the game,they look isolated.Thats no fault of these players ,its the style and set up doesn't suit these players.To me ,it seems Bilic isn't willing to change the system from a 4-2-3-1 /4-3-3.Why doesn't he make the best of what he has and use Valencia and Zarate up front ,not out wide? These guys are strikers for goodness sake,stick them up front .....The board have got to dip into their pockets and splash out on a quality striker with pace,because this long term injury situation is really going to have a negative effect on where we finish up the end of the season,cause Westham don't look like scoring from open play.
I'd like to see some of the young lads given a chance against Villa. Samuelsen(when he gets back from his loan spell)and Cullen might energize our midfield because there is not a lot happening going forward,only the predictable runs of Zarate and Antonio,who both done okay.Yet having said that they all did their jobs well defensively.
The first impressions I got with this game from kick-off was that Swansea were quicker ,their movement and pressing the ball, they were excellent at closing down,gave Westham very little time on the ball,which affected Westham's normal passing game,unsettled their flow.Thankfully Westham did finally wake up and start to take the game to Swansea.But the team is struggling without the likes of Payet,Lanzini,Moses and Sakho .Any thoughts?

We all know it and despite those who harp on about quality and technical ability lacking I say keep it...look at spain you already no the results before they happen rarely and it is very rarely one of the big clubs slip up as in Germany even france etc but over here just look at the results every week you cannot pick them...and long may it continue it makes our league the most watched and talked about around the world its EXCITING and as a supporter its what you want....goals make games and atmosphere between fans not a technical 0-0 so give me a 2-2 a 1-0 3-0 3-2 1-3 1-2 0-4.....if you want boring tic tac footy go watch continental football you want in your face blood and thunder football stay at home its the best league in the world and we all no it......if you don't then I guess your Scottish!! only joking lol

Not football related,but just wanted to mention-the last existing coal mine in great britain-kellingley colliery will close today.I know its a divisive subject but regardless how you feel about the closures,its a final nail in the coffin for one of our historic industries!The mines produced communities that will never be the same again,& for that reason imo its a sad day...Any thoughts?
