It was a push but that’s never going to get given. See every Arsenal attacking corner.

3 with 5 shots off target and 5 blocked. Our XG was only 1.1 but Fulham’s XG was only 0.67, so not good to have conceded 3.

In order we are: complacent, arrogant, weak, comfortable, fragile.
We have the investment and players to 'challenge the establishment'; we don't have the mentality.

Ah well, we'll turn it around at some point in the next 3 games, get in a good position then flatter to deceive again. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat.

They can have him for £50 million , then hopefully get a keeper who can actually pass to our players

Yes. I thought, for the most part, Albion played well for an away match tonight. Two of the goals were just unfortunate. The third, class.
I wondered that we might struggle to put the game away when on top. But felt that is the difference between the top sides in the league and those who try to challenge them.
Frustrating, but Albion now being an established team rather than one that makes up the numbers is apparent, even in poorer performances. And I suppose, in reality, the Premier League probably doesn't have many teams who who are safe in there outside of the always top enders. But Albion look like one.

Maybe but drawing 2-2 with Wolves after being 2-0 up on 89 minutes, failing to beat a dog shit Southampton side when 1-0 up with 30 minutes left and not beating Forst when a goal up with 15 minutes DOES suggest we have a weak mentality.
It's easier to chase a game and be brave V big opposition (Spursy and an exhausted City team it also must be said) is easier than digging in versus more dogged opposition fighting for a point.
We are weak, fragile, comfortable and complacent. We will never 'challenge the establishment' with our current mentality. We aren't strong enough.

this. They did press well and they have some big units to contend with. f*** it. Another day it’s not raining (which just didn’t help our wide outlet passes), we don’t gift them a goal and we win.

I’m hardly scapegoating Wieffer he had an average, non-event 6 out of 10 game - but it’s just funny that has people putting out the bunting
They failed to shoot when Dunk and JPVH gave them golden opportunities to make it a big score.

There were some 2 out of 10 performances from an horrific defence (except Igor) and Iwobi played as if Baleba didn’t exist all game.

Not at our best. We dust ourselves off and we go again for the next game. Some strange selections tonight nevertheless.

From the Putney End.... We looked very disjointed. Wingers who didn't use the wing or cross. A forward line which didn't know where the opposition goal was. A 2 man midfield sadly lacking the energy that Ayari brings. A back 4 that did little, clearly in a messwith 3 centre backs. All not helped by giving away a goal in first 2 mins. We play slow football. A bad day at the office maybe but something was off tonight. Let's see what Leicester brings.

Yep. Line under that one and we move on.

Indeed and that’s the story, not players having run of the mill efforts

I’m counting down the days until someone describes Fab’s subs as “woke”. Feel it in my bones it’s coming soon
and himself.
Second half versus Stains was a car crash. They took the p on the counter, ghosting past an under manned and weak as dishwater midfield.

Indeed, incontestable.
