[Albion] Perspective?

So if we are shite, no strikers, toothless, sign Messi or we're down, Houghton's out of his depth, Jose is a one trick pony and Knocky is finished etc etc etc etc, how can we possibly dominate a game against a side 5th in the hallowed PL?
In fact, we are playing shite, and yes, we don't have a front man/men whos effective ATM, and yet we are still holding it together. Loads to play for and plenty of room for improvement in the squad. I'm not worried, and thought we played much better today, chasing everywhere, and lovely to sea the bus in the car park and not on the field. Man up, stand up and stop crying about a tough run. It's a point that could keep us up.

A more realistic sense of perspective is that both Palace and West Ham won 3-0 away from home today.

All these pissy home draws aren't really going to be enough without us scoring the occasional winner. And that means investing in proper PL level strikers.

1. Any side can beat any other side on their day. It's why Huddersfield beat Manchester United and how goalless and pointless Crystal Palace beat last season's champions Chelsea. If football was simply a matter of Team A > Team B and that dictated results, it would be pretty boring.

2. This division is made up of one outstanding side, five very decent sides and fourteen sides who are relatively closely grouped. Burnley and us are part of that third group.
