I wish I could give them credit for playing like this against Arsenal too…

I have no issue losing to a side that has come out to play football. What boils my piss is teams that sit back and shithouse a spawny goal to beat us.

No, they don’t.

If Bradley is fit to play 45 minutes I’d put him on, move Jones into midfield and hook Szobo.
Nunez to come on for Jota as well

It’s not as though we’ve had an easy time against them in the past couple of season now, have we? 3-4 wasn’t that much of a joke on my part. I was actually rather serious.

This is right. The defence has been un-nerved but I think playing Curtis out of position at RB is a big error. Needs to rectify at HT and perhaps also hook Mo and play Cody or Luis there where either will at least help out the RB

It was always gonna be a tough game, especially if you don’t turn up.

Yes. Please don’t do that, GR

Get Nunez Chiesa and Endo on for 2nd half.

Arsenal play much different to us, they turtle and just wait for mistakes, rather than play on the front foot.

I find him a very odd choice for an ersatz right back. Jones’ one real notable flaw is he holds on to the ball too long. The one thing you absolutely don’t want in a fullback is not knowing when it is not time to hold on to the ball.

Quality first half lads.

Now this is the part where you stop pissing around and make us all look like cunts by winning this 4-3.

Love Chiesa and Endo but cannot see them coming on

I don’t want to sound reactionary but… that half was not very good.

Yeah. Maybe its Arne making a point to the top brass that we need(ed) reinforcements beyond a signed for the future GK.

Started well, then everything went to shite.

HT 3-1

The warning signs were all there in the first few minutes. Fulham set up to prevent our play from the back, but we made mistakes, with Konate and Curtis dawdling.

Then an outside of the box screamer from Alexis calmed all nerves of the fans early on, making the away fans sing we’re gonna win the league.

We continued with the same play patterns, and the mistakes kept coming. The equalizer, Curtis not used the right back position with the ball coming in fell nicely for Fulham. The second was a couple of mistakes by Andy, though the deflection was unfortunate. The third, VVD needed to be stronger.

We’ve set up with our usual midfield, and the opposition managers now have a solid idea how to press the traps. Having Endo/Harvey playing more minutes would introduce some other play.

But there is still another 45 minutes left. Go all out attack and salvage something. Need to get the front three into the game.

Disgraceful.

Szoboslai, Salah, Robbo, Konate all need pulling straight away.
