Coulibaly available?

“Today he wasn’t able to train with the team yet because we are finalising the paperwork. If he can train tomorrow, we will see. We’ll see if we can get him involved in the game on Saturday.”

This is a bit weird right?

No. He’s moving to a different country. Presume lots of stuff to sort out.

Win this and we will be out of the bottom 3

Be nice to put the pressure on other teams for once should we win. As opposed to thinking what could have been for this game week. 

 

Southampton surely don't beat Forest away?! 

I worry Ipswich could nick something at home to Man City. And who knows which Chelsea turn up against Wolves... 

And for that last point the same goes for Spurs at Everton...

Soumare is dogshit but you cannot play Skipp & Winks together and given the lack of options (please dont say shit about trying Faes or Vesty at DM), it’ll be Soumare and one of Skipp or Winks in midfield.

I imagine Ayew will come back in for Buonanotte and I can see Kasey coming in for Mavididi.

 

It’ll be absolutely awful and we’ll lose again.

 

Soumare isn't dogshit. He is one of a few that can progress the ball but (like many players in the bottom tier of this league) there are frailties to his game. Winks isn't a Wilf so doesn't offer the same protection.  When Wilf is back the 2 first choices will be Soumare and Ndidi (presuming Wilf hasn't gone straight back to being rubbish again).

 

I think Skipp currently offers less protection than Winks!

In the words of King Theoden, It’s over.

The title to this game say's it all to me.

 

Just sums up how I feel.

 

Fulham. Why do we give a fvck. The owners don't.

 

Because we care it's in our blood, so fight tell them how we feel.

 

Stop treating us like idiots.

 

The only way they realise is when the money stops.

 

Stop going.

Amazing that Fulham are just one of a number of current Premier League clubs that have never won even one of the major domestic trophies in their history, ever. Palace, Brighton, Bournemouth, Brentford, just off the top of my head. Many not won anything for decades.

It's currently very bloody helpful to me 

[cruzFOX]

We have the opportunity to win this and win this good and make a statement IF the players really want it. They have to do everything right and with a bit of luck Fulham drop their pants and so do our rivals. Time is running out!

Well we can't score goals and we can't defend. My calculations tell me that this is, in fact, another loss.

Nobody "looks Belgian" but Castagne looks so Belgian

Charles de Ketelaere even more so.

Surely we got 1 win in us, unlucky not to score first midweek, same team, I'd prefer okoki for vest but not going to happen, new signing for me could even challenge mavidid for a place on the wing and help out Justin at the same time, with el shifting over the the left side, wouldn't mind daka starting either and vardy off bench 2nd half (again wouldn't mind if this was cannon, but seems he will be sold). Must win game #3 (3rd time lucky) red card for fulham would be perfect as it's been a while since one against us, Castagne you know it makes sense 😉. 

[Sunbury Fox]

Surprised to see some of the negativity about Soumaré. Thought he was one of our better players again the other night, especially in the first half. He is very good on the ball, is able to drive forward with it (he should do this more as he's hard to stop once he builds a head of steam) and he tracked back well to bail out the defence on a few occasions.

 

I think the Ndidi/ Soumaré combo in CM was looking really good as it gave us more physicality and legs in there, and the two of them have complimentary strengths - Ndidi with his tackling, interceptions and pressing, and Soumaré with his ability on the ball. I like Winks a lot on the ball, too, but he lacks the physicality which is seemingly a pre-requirement for CM in the PL these days.

Please how your workings!!! 
 

  After yesterday’s results we are no worse off. Win gets us (temporarily) out of relegation zone. Got to go for it.

If we win this I'm changing my username to fudgepackER

All I care about, is elll see eff seeeee

[ealingfox]

Stupidly left two tickets for this on the dashboard of the car whilst I popped into the shops earlier. When I got back some bastard had smashed the side window and left two more.

Can see this being a high-scoring game. Surely Vardy or Daka can get the better of Bassey, and for them Jimenez is a top finisher on his day.

 

Just can't see us keeping a clean sheet again in my lifetime.

The problem is Soumare offers no protection in midfield and has zero urgency or awareness .  

 

The first goal could’ve be stopped in midfield if he hadn’t stood around watching the player run forwards and helped BEK out.  His negatives have more impact on our results than the positives. 

[Nick]

I'm strangely optimistic about this one - Fulham are on a steady run of mainly draws and maybe we can just get something out of this one if we can tighten up at the back.

[whoareyaaa]

Must win

Sorry guys, can’t make this one. Leg day at gym 😉

Soumare has been one of our best players in the last six games, but didn’t have a good game against Palace. Some very sloppy passes.

[Ric Flair]

To think we'd got a major boost of not breaching PSR and we lost at home to yet another relegation rival and once again didn't score. All hope is now lost which is where we'll probably end up getting a win and the torment starts again.
