Fulham (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

[melrose40yarder]

Fulham totally outplayed us in the second half. Score 5 and get a win and you fell like things are not good at all. Can´t keep playing like this ,won´t score these goals every game to bail us out. Defence wins titles and currently we are a mess. PS! Hopefully Savio gets sold as soon as possible...

Who the fuck is going to pay money for savinho??

 

[Robanompivenov]

It shows how bad our defendin was tonight, we conceded 4 their xG was 0.9.

Or how good their finishes were. For both teams. 2.5 xG for the entire game and nine goals says it was an abnormal/freakish game.

 

[Don Karleone]

There was a point late on in the game where we were coming under a lot of pressure but Savinho ran up the pitch with the ball from our penalty box instead of just punting it out in panic like most of our actual defenders were doing, but nobody seems to have noticed that.

If it's the same one I'm thinking of, didn't he lose the ball?

 

[ancoats]

This is how it feels to be City
This is how it feel to be in control

We scored 5 goals
Fulham fucking score 4

Can kalvin phillips be any worse than a midfield of bernardo and stones ... ffs

Have a look at the scoreline when we made the subs on 64 mins. Why were they made?

Yes we did lose control but I think the subs. were the cause. Pep made them for the right reasons.

You could still keep Nico G on at least a little longer

Do you agree?

Maybe that's the reason we nearly drew or lost the game there

Very poor subs and game management from the entire team

Sick to death for not having a proper ball winner on the field and one that that can win and put their foot on the ball and calm things down

 

[borassic]

On the train home, wow, unreal game! How much do we miss Rodri? That game totally demonstrates it for me

 

[argyle]

It's the post-match thread not the results page ffs.

Right, and the score post match was.... a win.

You wouldn't know it given how pissed off a lot of people are though.

[chesterbells]

Poor but he was often 2v1 because Silva was never there

Maybe but Silva has a lot of control and clear-headed intelligence on the pitch sadly lacking in many others.

 

[Kinkybyname]

transitional team, close second to a very good arse side, Erl's smashed Shearer's "unbreakable" record to smithereens etc, so let's all have a fkn good whingefest #entitled

 

[noseve]

Just realised - 9 goals from just 9 shots on target! Don't see that very often

 

[Ken92]

Who the fuck is going to pay money for savinho??

Yeah , you are right. Just keep him away from field and thats okey.

Pep Guardiola: "Rodri will be back soon, but [Mateo] Kova will be long, and we don't have anyone [aside from Nico]. Today we proved it.

"We have to think about it, maybe Nico O'Reilly can play there, Rayan Ait-Nouri or Nathan [Ake] can play at left-back.

"We don't have [alternatives]; Tijjani [Reijnders] is more attacking positions. His position is the goal he scored, in the pockets and his movements are unstoppable - he's really good! We have to find something..."

Yep he's definitely asking for help.

He makes some good points as well in some of the other stuff I've read also.

 

[Scaring Europe to Death]

Good points

We won
Foden back in the goals
Reijnders finally scored
Even at 1-0 and 3-1 Donnarumma made some crucial saves

Bad points

Everything else

Thanks for this. Disgraceful that all we're getting is the usual derision by the usual pack of melts on here while completely ignoring Haaland's latest record.

What the actual fuck is the point if you melts are not going to celebrate the achievements when we actually achieve them?

 

[dadnlad]

effort nearly won again who'd think it

kick the f'in ball all ive been shouting at tv

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Teams are simply more fearless against us. We used to be a team you’d be lucky to not be 3-0 down after 20 mins. Last season destroyed all of that. Teams know they just have to apply pressure, turn up the heat and we’ll stumble. We also don’t have a Rodri or an Ederson or KDB to steer the ship when things like that happen. You’re looking to Bernardo and Stones …

Different seasons. They now sit back, only until they think it’s time to hit the gas. All part of the game, and tactics we have to overcome.

Yes, unfortunately.
