Fulham v Everton. 30th Mar @ 13.30.

[cadex]

Why are our attacks so lob-sided? Should be attacking these from all angles. Typical Osman, cracking game last week, crap the next. Change it RM!

 

[tadpole]

Sloppiness in possession and lack of desire all over the pitch. Big test for Martinez now. McGeady has to come on soon because we're offering absolutely nothing down the left hand side. Lukaku's been poor, maybe replace him with Miralles and give their defenders something different to think about.

 

[mrb85]

Good tactics by the Fulham coach.....laying up on Distin and our back four not giving them time to settle, so we haven't been able to get into a rythmn. Martinez will sort it at HT...we need to be passing quicker and remember that Riise will tire. Mirallas, if he isn't sulking, could do well second half. Kukaku is being bossed by the 8 ft tall centre back, so get Naismith on, who will beat him on the ground, and draw free kicks. Still have us as favourites if we adapt.

Why wait til half time? Some of the changes needed should have been made already, especially the need for the players to get closer to each other, when on or off the ball.

Please.... please.... not today everton, not fkn today eh

Ffs

 

[lungissimo]

At least we won the passing...

Not the passing Half of our possesion is Distin having the ball

Fulham have been drawing a lot of games at half time ( or 1-0 down ) recently, can see us going onto win 2-0. Nice early deulofeu goal please lids

 

[angrysoba]

Osman definitely should be off, but who else would you take off if you want McGeady AND Mirallas on?

I would think one or the other. I would go for McGeady right now, and maybe bring Mirallas on later IF Barkley doesn't improve.

 

[Joey66]

Fulham just playing down the right Coleman is exposed also the pitch is smaller than most we have not controlled possession ! Our record on this ground is very poor 2nd half needs to be far better

 

[maccavennie]

Massive 2nd half coming up. We will see how much the lads have got the belief needed to grab that 4th spot. Dreadful first half, only Stones, Howard and McCarthy played to anywhere near the level expected. Gerry dangerous in patches but reverted to head down syndrome too many times. The only positive is that was Fulham at their best IMO so we just need to go up a couple of gears.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Lads, we have won one away since December, that simply is not good enough.

 

[davek]

Think Seamus looks a bit tired as well like, but then again can't remember the exact game but he had a game like this recently and had a great second half

There's something not right about this defence when Jagielka isn't there. WTF the explanation is for him being left out today I dont know.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

I love Mirallas but he is not who we need on, we need Mcgeady on. Only winger who actually cares more about the team than he does himself. He will cross the ball for us to SCORE instead of trying to win it on his own like Deulofeu or Mirallas do.

 

[bluestevon]

On a side note think Stones has shown today that he's totally ready right now, can't see him losing that starting cb spot now, think Jags comes in along side him when fully fit

 

[dholliday]

gods, i can't stand these ads with ernest fans (actors) in slow-motion celebration/despair...almost puts me off football altogether

 

[steken1]

Credit to fulham, they've worked hard and they're well organised. They'll tire and we'll get our better players on the ball more.
