[Albion] Fulham vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[symyjym]

If we manage to lose both our next PL games then it's panic stations. For now it's a medium-level irritation.

Yep, this is where I am at. I know that I will sleep better than Hughton tonight.

Dunk and Duffy have been very good this season but have never before seen 2 centre backs get so bossed by a centre forward as they were second half.. Dunk may have been pushed but Mitrovic wanted it more and for second goal neither bothered to even jump.

ironically i was commenting earlier in the season that Fulham were proving while all out attack for bottom half teams is a bad idea. I am one of those who have been baying CH to let us have a go at some of the relegation fodder and low and beyhold it backfires massively. Ironically i feel that in the second half we SHOULD have reverted to type and played more defensively because i dont think anyone of NSC would possibly have imagined Fulham would score 2 let alone 4 if we shut up shop.

I don’t think we’d even played that well to be 2:0 up to be honest. Took our chances and they were consistently repelled by an imperious Duffy. Monster in the first half.

Agree. We were too open, and it turned into a game of counter attacks for both teams. Should have parked the bus!!!

Relegation fight now on. One team always drops from a secure looking position. The others will now see us as a weak link

Same at the Amex

Not quite sure he didn’t bother to jump. Mitrovic had both hands on his shoulders which stopped Dunk from jumping.

Sometime as foul is given other times not.

24 minutes Fulham change and sub Ream for Cairney going 352. We never reacted

Who makes that decision at HT the manager or the captain/team?

You obviously never went to West Ham. Or Bournemouth. Or Watford.

So you think hughton is under pressure now then?

 

[worthingseagull123]

Fortunately we have enough winnable games at home to stay up this season

Which we may not win.

Glad I didn’t do £50 on that shite

I think this was key, clever management and totally overwhelmed in midfield from that point on.

Our home form is pretty decent

Yes. And rightly so. Hopefully from himself too. Which teams think they'll lose to us now? There's added pressure.

Winning the midfield is the key to most games of football. Reinforcements of quality will hopefully arrive this summer.

Unfortunately this has been coming for weeks! We really arnt very good but we are in a division with a lot of mediocre teams! We must be the slowest team in the league! The worst part about all this it will be the same individuals in the team next week! Time for change, bring in Bissouma for the woefully out of form Gross. Bin Locardia, put the young lad in (Viktor G), replace Bong with anyone (or just play with 10), bring Bruno back ....
I think there are 3 worst teams than us, but it may well be an interesting run in!!

Yep and our form over last 8 games is awful. I think we are second bottom.

Both Watford and Burnley are on very good runs

Come on mate that’s getting a bit strong now Fulham going forward are very good now ranieri has got them a bit tighter they always had a big win in them just unlucky it was us. There’s still plenty of sides that won’t want to play us especially at home
