REGIS Le Bris said the overriding emotion was frustration in the Sunderland dressing room after the 0-0 draw with West Brom.

The Black Cats dominated against the Baggies and had 17 shots on goal but couldn't force a breakthrough and had to settle for their fifth successive Championship draw.

Wilson Isidor thought he'd broken the deadlock in the second half but his goal was ruled out for offside, with Chris Rigg and Patrick Roberts both going close in the late stages.

Substitute Lewis Dobbin had a late chance for Albion but the visitors didn't have a single shot on target all night and were content to stifle Sunderland.

Le Bris said: "We are frustrated and disappointed, this is the main feeling in the dressing room for sure at the end of the game.

"In the positive part, against a good, well-organised team with good players - it shows that we are getting better in many areas.

"I think we pressed very well man-for-man and with our zonal defence, and we solved a lot of problems in the game. There were maybe some trials and errors for 10/15 minutes, then it was solved and they decided to play long balls - this was a good sign for us.

"In possession we were dominant, we had three or four chances to score but we didn't. In that scenario, the experience and the quality in the final third are very important and probably because we are still young, we didn't manage too well the frustration we experienced in this situation.

"There was a lack of accuracy and sometimes discipline, sometimes just a matter of centimetres can make the difference. Set pieces as well, these were the small details that can make the difference and today it wasn't enough.

"I want to keep the positive part of the game and the experience, we are getting better."

Le Bris says Sunderland can take West Brom's approach to the game as a compliment.

"It shows that they are respecting our level at the minute," he said.

"It's clear if we are becoming dominant like that we'll face this problem. It's a big problem not just for us but for all teams in the world when you are working against a back five, low block, well organised, aggressive, it's difficult to find solutions."
