Fulham (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

[RobinHood]

Great outcome last two matches. Instead of two points we have six.

 

[Tim of the Oak]

Actually thought we did really well to stem the tide of insanity in the last 15 minutes.

Arguably, our most important 15 mins of the season, so far. Would have been hard to bounce back if the game ended 5-5.

 

[birch villa]

I think I will send City the bill for my heart being in my arse right now.

Cant put a price on that

 

[Phoenix900000]

Run that by me again in english please :)
Happy chapper hahaha

We won, mate!
We are 2nd in the league, the highest goalscorers.
What more do you want?

A better performance

That was awful

Again you are not seeing the game as a whole

Same with the Leverkusen and Leeds

And yes you are a happy chapter and no you are not my mate

 

[TueartsCossackSpray]

Great entertainment, that. We switched off at 5–1 and they nicked a couple from the deflection lottery. No more, no less. In the end, a big away win — only Arsenal had won at the Cottage this season, and Fulham had conceded just three at home before tonight.

You switched off at 5-1. On a promise?

 

[NorCalBlue]

Only team in the league that would give up a 5.1 lead.

Which team is that? - not us tonight! :-)

 

[Gaz76]

Some want wins with the perfect performance, and absolutely no jeopardy.

I think maybe perhaps they may not have been city fans for long if they do

 

[i kne albert davy]

They had 5 shots on target and scored 4.

To be fair 4 great goals

 

[Platt Lane 59]

Awful performance

Spineless again from so many players...but the main issues persist.

Reijnders....besides the 30secs around his goal he did fuck all....go watch the game again...it just passes him by..he is walking most of the time while players like Bernardo and foden sprint around trying to win the ball back...he offers literally nothing

Donarumma - who were the people telling me over the summer that he is fine under the high ball when I said he was weak with crosses.....its literally every game he is costing us a goal or nearly costing us...he is an amzaing shot stopper but for someone who is 6,5 he is the biggest soft arse ever...if he had an ounce of Edersons bravery he would be world number 1

Fullbacks - both are an issue...NOR tries but he is getting done time and time again...Nunes we know the issues....

Stones came on (and I understand why Pep tried it - Nico G was on his last legs) but he can barely run.....again I said he should have been replaced over the summer

Savihno - sorry but Im done with him....he was through on goal and he bottled it and then tried to buy a foul....he should be in the reserves and nothing more

Pep cannot change this as he doesnt have the players to do so....rodri getting fit gives us more options but that aint happening quickly.....

If Arsenal dont win the title it will be the biggest bottle job in the history of football as we simply are bang average and should be nowhere near them

What would you do to put it right ?
Pick a team, formation & tactics

Some want wins with the perfect performance, and absolutely no jeopardy.

I think you are right but that was an unnecessarily stressful second half which is a bit of a pattern. We look unfit and panicky

 

[Ezy]

Club ain't going spending 100m on Anderson anytime soon. We've Rodri Gonzalez & Kovacic already here. Just our luck 2 have hardly kicked a ball.

Kovacic out until March and who knows when Rodri is back. Not sustainable

 

[Mike S]

WTF......

And breathe....

 

[kupest]

in 10 second half minutes?

No in the whole game. You can be sarcastic or just go check the stats or actually watch the highlights to see that Donnarumma did not make 4 or 5 saves as you claim. Anyways let's let this go.

 

[oakiecokie]

He would be dancing round behind the bar with his hands behind his back

He`s been watching Liam Gallagher too much

 

[elbearos]

Fulham were so lucky it wasn't seven

 

[No1 was Colin bell]

Jesus. What was that final 25 mins all about. Absolutely cruising.Then just bullied out of it. In the end a great three points.

I get resting Nico but wow what a gap he left. Questions need to asked as to why we fell off it again like the Leeds game.

But let’s be positive. A massive three points, a brilliant first 43 minutes, five away goals, Erling gets the millstone off his back and is already a centurion (“nice one centurion, like it”), Phil top class.

 

[willipp]

He didn`t score a goal.

I think it’s a bit of both. He assisted and scored / own goal which clearly had a big impact on the game. However for large parts of the game he was fucking shite. Gave the ball away over and over again and has no interest when we don’t have the ball. He needs to sort that out quickly.

 

[1961_vintage]

That's more like it. It's all been way too calm and comfortable around here recently.

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

We're missing the midfield general who can put his foot on the ball and marshall the team. We don't have one.

We needed o reilly to step into midfield to do that. He dragged us out the shit that last 15. We're too flimsy and we lose our grip on games too easily. You wonder if we need him in midfield, but then we'd lose control at left back...

 

[heslops barnet]

Bit like us in the Full Members Cup Final v Chavs back in the day albeit think we went 1-0 up before going 5-1 down then 5-4
Great day out plenty of action all day and night

I was there sat with the chavs, entertaining game
