Having the most clean sheets in the PL since January when Pulis took over is impressive, even if it's not as exciting to watch as some of the football under Mel or Clarke. Lest we forget how we threw 2 points away against Villa at home that November 2013. I was entertained by the football that night, but the result still stings even now considering how well we started that game!
It didn't sting as much as losing to them twice in a week having barely tested their defence. I find it bizarre that you would use results against Villa in defence of Pulis. I do however agree with you that the team has not played good football for years, it's just that Pulis has made it even worse.
Totally agree with Salop and 1996. We already have an adequate forward line. We need players to link midfield to forwards, but before that we need a style of play that makes linking midfield to forwards actually possible.

It's not really that bizarre when you think about it mate. We're playing them this Saturday so I thought it'd be a good talking point and I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks that throwing away a 2 goal lead at home is unforgivable, especially when it's against the Vile.
