Has anyone got a definition of the word ‘tackle’?

Dias couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery.

He runs like Maya Jama owns a big strapon

They didn't deserve a point, a couple of there's were hit and hope. The header for their first, just dived at it and it could have gone anywhere, same with a couple of their shots, 9 times out of 10 they don't go in. We also hit the woodwork twice. Admire them for having a go but that's all.

True. Scored 4 and their xG was less than 1. Ours was 2.21

8 goals conceded and 1 off the line from the last 15 shots on target v us. We seemed to have lost that calmness Donna brought with him when he played his first games.

Same old storey, good first half, 10 mins into second, we sit back, no press, inviting other team on

But how do we build on this

 

[Brendan110_0]

Well I hope I never have to go through owt like that again !

I got so annoyed with our defending in the 2nd half as the Fulham whirlwind swept straight through us that I trod on the dogs tail, and he's run off upstairs sulking .. and then i spilt my coffee on my new white rug, grrrr !!!

F'kin City, I had half a dozen heart attacks in that last twenty minutes !!

Dog and white rug, you OK?

 

[lefty goldblatt]

Martin Phillips was better than Savio

So was Leslie Phillips.....hello

 

[ArniArason]

Yes, but that goal difference could have been so much better….

and, if my grandmother had wheels, she would be a bike! :-)

The fact that we had to fight for our lives when we were 5-1 up is pathetic.
Our fit midfielders bar Nico and Foden are a joke.
Despite scoring, Reijnders was anonymous for majority of the game.
Silva was absolutely lost out there, awful performance from the Captain.
Dias, Gvardiol and NOR were in no man’s land every time there was a ball into our box.
Foden, Doku and Haaland were brilliant.
Savio and Stones had hall of shame cameos. Weak from the pair of them.

Don't mince your words:)

 

[Eaststander1]

Three of Fulhams goals (the last three) came from where you would expect a sitting midfielder to be……Nico needed help there while still on the pitch and when substituted Phil and Savinho were both poor on closing down the shots.

Thought we looked OK again once Nico O’Reilly moved into the middle and Cherki came on and controlled the tempo.

Without Rodri, surely give Nico a run in midfield, paired with Nico probably at the expense of Bernardo.

Stones doesn’t work in midfield ( unless it’s the hybrid role )

I said at the start of the 2nd half that we could be facing a different game after Fulham made subsitutions, but i sure as hell didnt expect that !

 

[Ithryn Luin]

5-1 up and to end 5-4 and nearly draw? .....Leeds last week 2-0 up....This team however talented has an defensive mental issue.! Their first goal was unlucky on our part, the second it can be said there was no tracking back from our midfield and he was free to place it. Last two were comical and by then we had lost it mentally for a period. TBH I thought we did well to hang on!..... but this young team needs to learn how to track back and cover!!!!

 

[Tim of the Oak]

Needs a break???? Lol

He only plays 20 minutes here and there and fucks that up.

Did you see him tackle himself again tonight on the edge of Fulham’s box

And carry the ball from our 18 yard line with the whole of Fulham’s half to run in to. But yet he runs into the only defenders in between him and Fulham’s half??

He’s a fraud.

Keep willing him all you want but it’s the hope that will get you in the end!!

lol. Steady on

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Has anyone got a definition of the word ‘tackle’?

Savinho has nailed the art of tackling himself.

Maybe he should get the others in for coaching sessions.

 

[deano ou812]

Just never play savinho again I don’t care get him out on loan or let spurs have him for free..As for that game fantastic for the neutral,but how do you fall apart being 5-1 up and then end up hanging on,fair play to Fulham they deserve the plaudits does anyone think if we were 5-1 down we’d of had Fulham holding on,I doubt it very much..

 

[citytill1die84]

Get ANDERSON now.

Fuck Anderson we need fucking Rodri back. Wouldn't be out long Pep said over 2 months ago.

 

[Brendan110_0]

But how do we build on this

Start inviting other teams on at 30 mins?

 

[malg]

Yes. Rags surely? Loads of our players were called useless or a c*nt.

I think that was Savinho. I think Gvardiol got some as well. Pep got questioned as well.

Not sure about them being Rags, just the emotion of the game and the internet.

 

[dublinblue12]

At least it wasnt boring I suppose!

Once we attempt to do that whole go down into second gear thing and see out the game we are in trouble these days.

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Need proper recognised fullbacks

No point in this system.

 

[argyle]

Reminds me of when we scored 6 against the rags but then let them score a 3rd and people on here were furious with the 6-3 win.
