Fulham H Post Match Thread

Pathetic is the only word for it.

[jmono84]

Defence and selection cost us today... you can’t be too hard on the attacking for me, crowded out against a team defending in numbers and when we finally play with wingers were already 2 down!

 

Be angry at yourself Rodgers, you’re your own worst enemy, bottled it against Liverpool and shocking selection against Fulham. Last 2 games all on him!

[southfox66]

It was like we were back in the championship and is there any point in us getting corners, it's just a waste of time with Maddison, we might as well get someone else to take them 

[TWUKO]

Garbage! One of the worst teams in the league and created very little, didn't get going until the last 5 mins, joke!

 

We never seem to have an unlucky loss, we always fully deserve it!!!

 

Lost 3 out of 5 at home, not even played anyone decent!!!

[foxfanazer]

People keep bringing up the wins against Man City and Arsenal but they're a waste of time if you can't beat the bread and butter sides like Fulham.

Tactically done by Scott Parker for christ sake

[LestaAl]

Did we go top of the league.........

[Guest kristianity77]

Embarrassment. There is nothing more to say.  Only bothered to try in the last 10 minutes.  Too many games now where Rodgers just sets us up all wrong.  The amount of points he's responsible for us chucking is frightening, regardless of where we are in the table. 

 

We lose confidence purely because of the manager for me, he actually coaches confidence out of players by them not knowing whats to be expected of them week by week or how we are going to play.

 

Its almost like he gets a win, and sticks to that style of playing until we lose a few on the bounce and then he scampers around trying to find the next load of tactics to get a win, then rinse and repeat.

 

How we finished that game is how we should have started.  Fulham must have looked at our lineup and tactics and pissed themselves laughing thinking we were there for the taking before a ball was kicked.  That's why we don't beat the smaller teams because we give them a platform before the game starts.

 

Rodgers is mr inconsistent to a tee.

I'm worried about @deanolegend1989. I fear he may have just turned into The Hulk.

Brendan the scapegoat as per. Yawn. 

 

Players were terrible 

 

Lay off - I've said in the match thread that the players should take their portion of the blame - but set up like that and you're bringing it on yourself as the manager.

[TeamRocket]

Why does Madz take corners and free kicks  Why don't we start with Under

Also does this no training make the team less connected?

[Raw Dykes]

Rodgers sort it.

 

Totally unacceptable. Brendan needs to learn from this and sort out the approach to these sorts of games. Should be wiping the floor with relegation fodder at home.

 

I'm still backing him, but this sort of performance won't do.

[Farrington fox]

18 points from 30. Fecking hopeless. 14 goals conceded 🤦🏼‍♂️

[Ian Nacho]

Somehow the second half was worse than the first. Didn’t create anything and we got what we deserved. Fair play to Fulham but we didn’t test them nowhere near enough. 

[Sunbury Fox]

It was like Peter Taylor was guest manager for the day.

Yes and no. We've been that bad at least 8 times in 2020. And mostly against absolute cannon fodder. Brendan needs to pull his finger out.

He can’t it seems. Too many abject nights of Football from this man. He just isn’t the full package. Too nice or too crap- you decide?

[Blue and white]

Attack the best form of defence, don't attack or have any attacking players then the opposition gain confidence to push forward.

Dreadful. Have to blame Rodgers. He’s clueless when sides come and put 10 men behind the ball. 

One thing you don’t do is play narrow with 3 CB’s

[StanSP]

Might be stating the obvious but even if one of Ricardo, Castagne, Soyuncu or Ndidi come back in the next few weeks it'll make a difference against this kind of side. 

 

Too many players in this side looked knackered and it might be out of frustration or moreso several games catching up with us so some fresh legs would be welcome. 

 

Regardless, it was totally abject today. 

Not one player stands out from that. 

[Will1981]

piss poor performance, piss poor team selection how on earth Praet started after his performance in Braga I will never know.

[FerrisBueller]

I’ll say it again, Puel ball with nicer teeth.

Possibly the least consistent manager in the league, it’s either 10/10 spot on or an absolute embarrassment, nothing in between.

[wardyfox86]

LMAO. Stunk of a loss from 4:30 onwards.

 

It boils my blood how inevitable it felt. 

[Le Renard]

I know as supporters we have a tendancy to overreact, but that was just depressing to watch, I've gone past the stage of anger and now I'm in the moarning phase. Thank god (we needed divine intervention) it wasn't on Saturday, so my weekend hasn't been ruined...that is the only positive!

[Ian Nacho]

Say what you want about Slimani but I’m pretty sure he would have put himself about more than Iheanacho did.

Wrong team selection, injuries finally catching up with us and ultimately just one of those days. We learn from this and move on. 

Sadly we didn't learn from Villa and West Ham though.

Had a bad feeling about this game since the Braga game,the penalty was soft but we didn't really deserve anything from the game. 

 

The formation makes no difference when you can't string 3 passes together. are the 2 games a week taking it's toll? Who knows?
