Crystal Palace manager Sam Allardyce bemoaned a lack of cutting edge as they were held to a goalless draw at his former club Bolton in the third round of the FA Cup.
On-loan Chelsea striker Loic Remy, making an injury-delayed debut, hit a post and looked the Eagles' biggest threat but he played only 45 minutes, and the home side did even better in the attacking third with Joshua Vela coming closest when he headed against a post.
Allardyce is still looking for his first win since taking over last month, and with just two goals in four matches he knows where the issue lies.
