Sky Sports<\/em>.<\/p>\nVela\u2019s goal was subject to cries of offside from the Stoke players, but they were waved away by the referee\u2019s assistant. <\/p>\n
Asked whether he thought the contentious goal should have stood Reid said: \u201cFrom where I was it looked like he made a little run into the box [from an onside position].\u201d<\/p>\n
The midfielder puts the result down to the team\u2019s new found organisation under new manager Roy Hodgson\u2019s stewardship.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cI think we\u2019re organised a lot more difficult to break down we\u2019re a lot more solid at the back. A couple of additions have helped – when Carlos gets half a chance more often than not he will put it away.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s got to that stage of the season now where no matter what happens we can\u2019t give up.\u201d<\/p>\n
West Brom goalkeeper Scott Carson agreed with his teammate, adding: \u201cObviously we\u2019ve worked on [defending set pieces] and it was a real advantage to Stoke with [Rory] Delap\u2019s long throws.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think after the first 20 minutes we started to get the ball down, the [long] game didn\u2019t really suit us and in the last few minutes we showed a great attitude and it\u2019s disappointed us we haven\u2019t come away with it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Carson put Stoke\u2019s opening goal down to a failure in defending, with several players not carrying out the instructions they were given.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201c[Delap] was on me for the corner but I think we had a couple of people out of position and it caught us off guard a bit.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was the goalkeeper at the other end, Stoke\u2019s Asmir Begovic, that stood in the way of a West Brom win \u2013 the Bosnian pulling off a string of heroic saves at the death to deny Vela, among others, the chance to take the Baggies\u2019 tally to two.<\/p>\n
He spoke of his frustration at not finishing the game with a win and thanked the Stoke fans for their support on the night.<\/p>\n
Begovic said through his official Twitter<\/em> account: \u201cGutted not to win tonight! We will take the point and move on to Saturday. Thanks for support. Come on Stoke!\u201d<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n
