sdb Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 Hope Kelichi starts. He gets in better positions than Perez who I think is a far more useful 10. Just pray KI has his weetabix this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighPeakFox Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 Will not be even vaguely surprised if Perez starts tonight - so I wouldn't bother winding yourselves up over the prospect. After all, regardless of who was picked, if we were at the ground, we'd all get behind every single player, right? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwiturk Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 (edited) Before the Fofana's injury, I would seriously suggest that the Soyuncu as a striker for the Fulham game. Why the bloody not? He can shoot the ball like a bazooka. He is Ok in air. And the most importantly, he's got the Cruyff moves. But now Fofana's out for 5-6 weeks, we need him at the back. I reckon he should be considered when the future striker crisis appears next time. Edited 3 February 2021 by kiwiturk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotch Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 Fulham remind me slightly of us in our great escape year. They rarely get beat by a lot. It always seems to be 2-1 or 1-0, with a fair few draws in there and there performance always seems to deserve more. This won't be as straight forward as some folk are predicting. Especially with the injuries we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call him a floor mat, throw himself down easily and usually stay down a bit longer than usual.😂😂😂 Richarlison and him are the top offender on this department in EPL Not a good quality to have as a defender really!!!! So bloody bad idea. Edited 3 February 2021 by kiwiturk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall Cockney Fox Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 22 minutes ago, pmcla26 said: Don’t see how that’s such a terrible suggestion. He’s got all the skill set to play holding midfield, it’s not like you’d be asking him to play number 10 or thread balls through. Would only be to counter act the physicality Fulham possess and the lack of Wilf, ain’t gonna happen anyway with Fofana out. Your right in respect of him having the physical attributes & passing skills. But you have to read again in there. Which takes time to adapt to. Remember how Big Dan looked all at sea after a few games? It's not as easy to do it without regular practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Flair Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 11 hours ago, Deeg67 said: If Under doesn’t start this game it’s pretty much a confirmation that he has no path into the side. He’s effectively done here. It would raise some serious questions on how on earth he ever gets an opportunity. I suppose we have to keep picking up poor results which isn't ideal.

Seven and three losses (Chelsea and both Manchester clubs) their GD in those ten games is -4 can people stop with the over confidence - it peed me off pre Leeds When we have our best eleven out we can have confidence - when we have our current eleven playing we need to put it all in to get a win. and which of the teams out there tonight will want it more ? I think I know that ...... Sorry to think Fulham are shite, I was only looking at the table and seeing them in the bottom 3. If we can't get by these given our away record shouldn't we be asking ourselves where we are going this season? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never sure what you'll get with Kelechi but he can't be much less of a goal threat than Perez so I'd start him too I really like the look of the partnerships in the middle and down the wings.

casablancas Posted 3 February 2021 Share Posted 3 February 2021 I can’t understand all the doom and gloom following the Leeds result. We have been in rich form and some of the football has been excellent. I know the result hurts and we really were off it. But we have more than enough to put Fulham to the sword and I do not see a reaper of the home game. I think we will get a big response from the boys (at least that’s my hope) I do see a change up top, Ünder to start and Keli coming in playing a hold up role with hopefully Maddison, Barnes and Ünder playing off him. Anyway just my thoughts but COYF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
