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

[Littlemo]

Moder? Gross? Buonanotte? All are available. All are more natural in that position. You could even rotate them throughout the game. The argument makes no sense.

REST, Buonanotte and Gross have played nearly every game recently. Moder is only just back from being out for a year and a half, so can’t play every game. This is what resting players looks like. How are you not understanding this? It’s not hard

if we win the europa though....

Lol

 

[US Seagull]

I do feel like singing about Rome is letting the players know we don't care about this game.

 

[Zeberdi]

Much better second half - one goal and we’re back in it - Fulham look likely to score again on the counter which is the risk but our quality is much improved with Gross and Facu coming on.

Would be a great consolation if Ferguson could claw one back and get on the score sheet this afternoon to kick start his goal scoring again.

Trying to walk it in again.

shooooooooot

 

[zefarelly]

If you don't shoot. You won't score.

 

[Mike Small]

Really? He was begging pointing at where he wanted the ball, just couldn't get the shot off. not cowardly at all.

If we're talking about the same chance from Lalanna he just flicked it. Could have taken the keeper on or side footed it. Woeful. Just then we had a 3 on 2. He was driving towards the box. Old Fergie would have used the space to have a shot at least. Did absolutely nothing with it. Waste of space today and for sometime. Sad. RDZ needs to help him somehow.

 

[Hugo Rune]

The ball is not going to deflect to one of our players in their box in a million years is it?

There is three of them. Two can do 45mins each and one can not play a single min. By your thoughts what's the point in them even being on the bench? Plus the player allowing them to rest has played just as much, so there is no resting anyway.

 

[Mike Small]

‘cowardly’?

Yeah a bit strong for some people granted but he just flicked it in hope and is shooting and playing within himself at the moment.

[Brok]

Should have kept the hyper turque shirts.

 

[WhingForPresident]

God we are so painfully slow when attacking. Just allow the opposition to get 10 behind the ball before we fanny about with it in the final third then lose it. Then inevitably get hit on the counter. It's bloody ridiculous.

Would that be Brentford with a stack of injuries, bored of the injuries excuse we can’t just give up like this performance

 

[southstandandy]

On the plus side, we're only dropping 2 places today.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Depleted squad ? Excluding hinsh who is a youth player we have 4 players Injured I think. No excuses, weve just been rubbish the last 2 games and I suspect it's because of Roma.

It is not that depleted when you also put half the available players on the bench. It is an absolutely bizarre team selection.
You can't complain about squad depletion when you have Gross, Buonanotte, Moder, Wellbeck and Andingra on the bench.
A lot of clubs would kill for a bench that strong and we are seriously complaining that we have a depleted squad!?

Alright, alright – weakened starting XI.

Bloody pedantic snowflakes!

 

[Mike Small]

Suppose it's been slightly better this half. Even if we look toothless upfront and porous at the back.

 

[birthofanorange]

Better this half, but still sod all chance of winning/drawing this match.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Better this half, but still sod all chance of winning/drawing this match.

Or scoring
