Slaven Bilic struggled to absolve Adrian for two lost points against Stoke City today admitting it was “a cheap goal” to give away.
Giving his thoughts on the result he said: “It is frustrating and not what we were looking fo. We got a point at the end but we were looking for all three.“It was not a very good game from both sides. It was a very physical game and in the first half we didn’t do well and were simply not good enough. We started flat and without a tempo.

“In the second half, after ten minutes, we made some changes and put two players up front and then scored the goal and had our best part of the game from when we scored until when they scored.

“Then we conceded a very cheap one, to be fair. It was a fair result at the end of the day, because neither team deserved to win. It’s a point, we are frustrated, but it’s a point.”

He added: “It’s a mistake. Adrian misjudged the ball. It looked like he would never get the ball and we gave away a very cheap goal, but you can’t say that is the reason why we didn’t win the game.“OK, we were one goal up with 15 minutes to go, and it was a very cheap goal to give away and it’s cost us a win.”
