Fulham (A) - Sat 11th May, 12:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

I wasn't aware that Son had been transferred to Fulham.

I know. Some people are getting ahead of themselves. The Spurs game may not matter if we lose on Saturday. Likewise experience should have thought us that if we win the next two games we still may have to beat West Ham and what possibly go wrong in such a situation?

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

We need the team to do what Pep said, win them all

Absolutely

None of these games can be overlooked. Fulham are a solid enough mid table Premier league side, it's not like we're playing a third division side. They're capable of beating anyone on their day, like any other Premier league team. They turned spurs over not so long ago, yet people seem to be overlooking Fulham and worried about Spurs.

Luckily the players will approach it with the same focus as any other game.

I see Anthony Taylor has been given this game. Hopefully he is not on a mission.

He will lose control of the game before having to dish out a flurry of cards , nailed on rodders will be carded

Taylor is the biggest anti-City cheat out there. Out of interest what’s our all time record with him as ref?

No marginals for us on Saturday with that rag **** - he’ll give them the marginals that Coote won’t overrule, and vice versa he’ll give us nowt and Coote won’t overrule. Saturday just became trickier

We've only had him in 4 games this season so far. Luton in the cup (6-2), Arsenal at home (0-0), Chelsea away (4-4) and Forest home (2-0). Overall a mixed bag under his officiating, but probably because he takes the bigger games generally.

He's overseen 16 away games of ours and we've won 10, drawn 4 and lost 2. Away at Liverpool and Spurs the losses funnily enough!

At home we're not great under him, which is more of a surprise with our home record. Hopefully he doesn't officiate our game against Spurs as we've lost both games he's overseen against them!
