Brentford ended their long losing run in the Premier League on the day new signing Christian Eriksen was introduced to the fans but a 0-0 draw at home to Crystal Palace on Saturday did little to soothe the club's relegation jitters.

A dreadfully dull game was crying out for the watching Dane's flair as defences ruled the day and the two teams cancelled each other out.

There was an anxious moment for Brentford in stoppage time when Wilfried Zaha went down in the penalty area but referee Simon Hooper saw nothing wrong. The draw kept Brentford in 14th place with 24 points from 25 games, seven points clear of the relegation places."We needed to create more to get one goal -- that's maybe down to the quality on the day. There are a lot of positives to take from this game," Brentford manager Thomas Frank said.

"It'll be a big moment in world football when he steps out on to the pitch to play. We're pleased he's with us, but we'd have supported him whichever club he was with," Frank said.Eriksen, who joined Brentford last month and is now fitted with a special heart-starting device known as an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator will play in a friendly match on Monday but his debut for the west London club cannot come soon enough if they are to rediscover their form.
