2 Fulham penalties and rhodri sending off coming up in the second half

In fairness, its the only way Rodri will ever get a rest

There's no way Akanji being there didn't affect the keeper's decision making. He stuttered his dive because of him.

Still, I'll take it.

Agree. But the modern interpretation of the rules allows that goal every time. It seems to imply the goalie should be aware he would be offside and not let it affect him.

Surprise surprise, Richard Keys calling it “scandalous”.

Not as scandalous as cheating on your cancer-stricken wife with your daughter’s mate, you fucking abhorrent ****.

Agreed, and pretty similar to Sheffields goal last weekend imo .

I think we got a bit of luck there for once. Although I don't know what the fucking rules of football are anymore and I could be wrong.

Tough 45. Fulham well organised and pressing effectively. Needed patience and now we have to put them away.

 

[Nour]

Anyone who have seen kovavic he is quite needs to link up with Rodri

 

[Blu1]

Asking akanji to come in the middle will cost us in this. He can’t do it. Trying to be clever for no reason. Drop Phil in the middle & leave akanji back. Kills their midfield. Our system is helping them right now

Fulham are playing well credit to them
