West Bromwich Albion 2-2 Fulham: Premier League strugglers draw

West Bromwich Albion boss Sam Allardyce says his side playing "too much complex football" was the reason they were so poor in the first half of the draw against fellow strugglers Fulham.

The Cottagers dominated the first period and looked on course for a first top-flight win since 30 November thanks to Bobby Decordova-Reid's early goal.

However, a change of system and the introduction of new loan striker Mbaye Diagne helped the Baggies engineer a complete turnaround after the break.

"Playing a more simple game of football with better quality made life extremely difficult for Fulham," Allardyce said.
