Making Plans 936 Posted March 30, 2018 Gunn, Pinto, Zimmermann, Klose, Lewis, Reid, Tettey, Vrancic, Maddison, Murphy, Srbeny. Subs: McGovern, Husband, Oliveira, Hoolahan, Raggett, Edwards, Hanley. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted March 30, 2018 I preferred the two winger approach. Perhaps Reed will drop in at right back and Pinto will play on the wing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,140 Posted March 30, 2018 Is Oliveira still recovering a bit from injury or was it a straight choice?If the latter it''s a case of how the mighty have fallen.I hope Srbeny finds a little bit more of his feet. He''s had a few chances now, but needs a goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 30, 2018 Formation all wrong here.Pinto doesn''t know whether to stick or twist. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted March 30, 2018 Little wonder that strikers don''t get any service. Perfect opportunity for Pinto put a ball into the box, as Srbeny was pulling away from his marker and he takes it to the corner flag. WTF! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted March 30, 2018 Reed/Pinto down the right does not seem to be working at all. Onel seems to have become a prominent part of our attack and we are missing him.If Murphy''s final ball could actually find a yellow shirt we''d probably be 2 or 3 up by now...

Guest Posted March 30, 2018 Not going to be much goal mouth action today.Fulham don''t cross and we can''t with any accuracy.I''m afraid this kind of football is going to take some getting used to. Just yearning for some power or strength for a change to get the crowd going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 9,653 Posted March 30, 2018 Decent half actually. Fulham are a decent side and weve created far more than they have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Smith 2,317 Posted March 30, 2018 We’ve played pretty well and got better as the half went on. Were controlling it towards the end of the half as they cannot get past the magnificent Tettey. If they don’t find a bit extra to give him another year they are stupid in my book.The game plan would be working perfectly if we did not have attacking players (and one in particular) who make the wrong decision so often or appear incapable of getting the final ball right. It’s very frustrating, particularly when playing in a way that relies on being clinical.Very much in this though and can win it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted March 30, 2018 Marking was a joke for that goal, who was following Johansen, who just wondered into the centre of the box? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lincoln canary (& Golden Coppel) 0 Posted March 30, 2018 And again?! Awful defending. Tettey and Vrancic not following runners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted March 30, 2018 If you don''t take any of the few chances you create you will pay for it.It was obvious Srbeny wasn''t doing a thing and we needed Oliveira on, despite him being a knob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted March 30, 2018 Cr*p clearance from Klose - should have been in Row Z.Once again, poor decision making at both ends of the pitch. Has been the same all season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Making Plans 936 Posted March 30, 2018 Clinical finishing - some teams have it, we don''t.Another home defeat looming when we could have won it.Fulham use subs when it''s 0-0 and we wait until we''re losing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted March 30, 2018 IMO Srbeny is not the problem. It''s the poor service he is getting from both sides of the pitch. Murphy has made some awful decisions today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kanadyan Kanary 121 Posted March 30, 2018 This has been a poor match. Poor defending from us led to us gifting them two soft goals. They had good possession but didn''t really do anything with it (bit like us in recent matches). I felt we had the better opportunities but our decision making in the final third was woeful and our attacks petered out, simply because we played the wrong ball.

hogesar 9,653 Posted March 30, 2018 Theres the difference between us and the top 6 this season.Fulham have taken 2 chances theyve created. We didnt take any of ours and made some poor decisions in the final third.Lewis had a good game, looks like hes got over that tired phase for a couple of games. Pretty much all our attacks started via a Vrancic interception or ball from him. Think he will be very important for us next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Essjayess 307 Posted March 30, 2018 Result that was always expected today. I said ages ago, towards the start of Fulhams long unbeaten run, they would be the team to scorch up the table, just as they did the last time they got promoted to the Prem, very hard to beat and at times unplayable. They are heading for the top two, while our season peters out with DF still trying to find that formula to get us scoring / winning most weeks.Going to be a pretty disapointing end to the season and a long summer for DF and Webber.

Making Plans 936 Posted March 30, 2018 [quote user="hogesar"]Also notable that *some* posters dont bother posting till we go behind[/quote]Personally, I didn''t want to appear to be overly negative so I waited until they scored. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ron obvious 1,502 Posted March 30, 2018 I thought we were excellent second half - until they scored.The successful teams we''ve played against seem to have that ability to scent a goal, to come alive around the box when it matters. We haven''t got that instinct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
