    West Brom manager Alan Irvine: "It's bitterly disappointing as we started the game pretty well and got ahead.

    "We made a couple of mistakes and people started getting nervous. When the equaliser came, I felt we could deal with that at half time.

    "But, the second goal then made our job even harder.

    "I thought the second half was very, very good and we deserved to get something out of that game."

    Leicester City manager Nigel Pearson: "It's frustrating as I think we played pretty well tonight.

    "I've got no complaints with the way the players conducted themselves, even with 10 men.

    "It becomes increasingly difficult to stay positive, but my job as manager is to continue working at what is a 'work in progress'.

    "Our run has been difficult and we haven't perhaps had the results our performances have merited."

    How much would Christian Benteke be to buy in January? Not that he is for sale, but if Neil Warnock wanted to by a striker of that class, how much would he need?

  6. Manager reactionpublished at 22:27 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2014

    Crystal Palace manager Neil Warnock speaking to BBC Sport: "I think if we had Christian Benteke we would have won comfortably and that is what we are looking for in January. We are just missing that quality at the front.

    "We do need that Benteke and they are hard to come by. Hopefully we can get one sooner rather than later.

    "I can't fault the lads and now we have to do it the difficult way and get points at some tough places. We didn't create enough in the box.

    "Sometimes you have to make your own luck and we didn't do that, although we huffed and puffed. We are shooting ourselves in the foot."

  7. No keeper? No worriespublished at 22:27 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2014

    It was an interesting night at Wrexham, where visiting Bristol Rovers played 50 minutes without a recognised goalkeeper in an eventful goalless draw.

    The visitors had five subs on the bench, but none of them were goalies. Therefore, defender Mark McChrystal moved into the visitors' goal after Steve Mildenhall's 42nd-minute exit with a knee injury.

    Burnley manager Sean Dyche: "I think the positives are the performance again, particularly in the first half.

    "Other than a really poor goal that we gave them, another good performance from us.

    "There's some really good signs in what we're doing and how we're moving forward."

    QPR goalkeeper Rob Green: "It's pleasing to make saves but the over-riding disappointment of defeat is greater than any personal achievements.

    "It's difficult now we are in December (having lost every away game) but every team we have played away from home is in the top half of the table, which shows the size of the task we've had."

    On recent criticism levelled at Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet: "If Mignolet is making mistake after mistake, it's going to be very difficult for him to get out of this rut.

    "Sometimes mud sticks and if people are criticising you, it can be hard to shake off.

    "We know he's a great keeper and it's really about his strength of character if he can pull himself through this."

    QPR manager Harry Redknapp speaking to Andy Gilles: "This is the third game running where we've conceded late away from home and it's taken it out of us.

    "Rob Green made a series of great saves and I thought our luck might be in to come away with a point the longer it went on at 0-0.

    "We wanted to keep some momentum after a home win on Saturday. You look at some of the results down the bottom tonight and it's hard.

    "We've got some home games coming up now which are vital to us."

    Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera on the identity of the winning goalscorer: "I don't know! I have to see the replay again. Marcos Rojo says he scored but I have to look again.

    "But it doesn't matter who scored. What's most important is that we got our fourth consecutive victory. The team is close to it's best."
