    Reporter Ian Brown at Old Trafford: "United are struggling to find any consistency in this game. There have been short spells where they have put West Brom under pressure, Ashley Young shot over the bar and Boaz Myhill has saved twice from van Persie. Van Persie had the best chance in his first start since February. West Brom had one big moment where JOleon Lescott had a free header from a corner but it went straight at De Gea."

    QPR

    A surprising - perhaps - stat from Anfield is that QPR have found the back of the net in each of their last 10 Premier League away games; their longest streak in PL history.

    They just can't keep clean sheets.

    Tom Wilkinson: Mourinho is just Pulis with a platinum card

    Steve Bower
    BBC Match of the Day commentator at Old Trafford

    "The referee brings to an end a goalless, tame and timid opening 45 minutes but that will suit Tony Pulis. So far so good for West Brom. Robin van Persie with Manchester United's best opening."

  9. 'It's in our hands'published at 18:24 British Summer Time 2 May 2015

    Sunderland

    Sunderland manager Dick Advocaat speaking to Sky Sports about his side's 2-1 win over Southampton: "It was a very important win. Everything is still in our own hands with four games to go.

    "Today we have seen what can be achieved if everyone works their socks off. It was great team performance and I am really proud of the way we got the three points."

    On Sunderland's two penalties: "In my opinion they were both penalties, good decisions by the referee by the way."

    On the red card shown to Southampton's James Ward-Prowse (laughing): "I am not allowed to say but I was happy they sent him off because it makes it a little bit easier."

    A few of you agree with Sam there on social media and find West Brom's tactical approach boring. What do you mean?

    This is there current average position map. Disciplined.

    Sam Hartles: WBA using the age old Tony Pulis special today.... 4-6-0 formation. Boring Boring Baggies!

    Paul Collins: If titles and trophies were won by passes backwards and sideways, Man Utd would walk the title.

    ruach: Does Manchester United know that possession will not actually win them the game?

    Wayne Andrews: Can't see Sunderland surviving, with Everton, Arsenal and Chelsea to come - all away

    Dan Baldwin: You having a laugh? Villa wont go down the way they're playing. Newcastle will

    Robin Peckitt: Can't remember hearing the crowd at Old Trafford being this quiet. Aimlessly passing won't win the game nor the crowd.

    Pass it around, pass it around, pass it around, and Chris Smalling gives it away.

    That's this half in a nutshell. It's dull.

    It's looking more and more like one of Aston Villa, Newcastle, Hull, Leicester or Sunderland will be relegated to the Championship.
