West Ham’s Pedro Obiang gave the only genuine minute of high quality, capturing Ben Foster off his line as well as hitting the bar from simply outside the centre circle.
After the break, Foster was perhaps lucky to run away with just a reservation as he raced from his box and aggressed the onrushing Javier Hernandez.
The outcome removals West Brom right into the leading half of the table, while the Hammers stay in the bottom three on objective difference.
Both teams were lacking in front of goal, with only a tame Michail Antonio shot and also a Hal Robson-Kanu header forcing a save from either caretaker.
Javier Hernandez was nearly confidential till he was involved in the case with Foster in the 66th minute. He was replacemented for the 2nd game in a row.
The previous Manchester United demonstrator, that has actually racked up two objectives this season, touched the sphere just when in the Baggies box and did not seem to gel with Andy Carroll, that was the centerpiece of the Hammers’ assault.
Another concern for the Londoners will be the physical fitness of defender James Collins, that limped off in the 58th minute.
