??? We’ve had 8 shots on target in the last 2 matches so not sure what your point is?

Borrowed this off of another forum, just updated. As we knew already, we certainly create.

Whilst CP, Leicester and Everton know how to tuck away chances.

Thats not the case though, as can be seen in the transfer window of the summer. Most of the teams, with some exceptions, invested lots of money in their squad. Others have had their manager for several years building a squad according to the needs and wants of that manager. Brighton had more investement needs and obviously less money to invest (or the new striker wouldnt have been recruited from some lost & found box).

So basically, we were impacted the same as other clubs. Just in your opinion we needed players more than other clubs because our squad and/or manager were worse than the others.

Pep needs to bring on his big guns second half.

How much did City pay for Torres as he’s looked awful every time I’ve seen him.

I like Scott Parker and the way Fulham play. Like us, they play much better football than many of the sides ahead of them but haven’t got the results their performances deserve (until recently).

He’s massively underestimated this in form Fulham team. They’re solid right now. Wanker Pep thinking he can start without KDB, Gundogan, Fernandinho, Foden, Sterling etc etc. Yes, yes they’ve got good players but he better bring them off for better ones and quick. Seems to be us or Newcastle really. Can’t wait for next week when we dominate and come out with a 1-1 at best.

This is a catastrophic result for us so far. God forbid they nick a winner. I think it's clear that it's just a dog fight between us and Newcastle, and we lack any fight. We are doomed.

Fulham are too good to go down, they are matching City and have belief. We need to look elsewhere for the third relegation side. Could well be us if we don’t beat Newcastle.

Nice of Pep to send out the B team for this game

Liverpool rested their big guns against Fulham, now City do the same.
It's almost as if we may have to win some games ourselves.

If he takes us down, which looks most likely, then yeah, he's failed us.

You said if we fail to win tomorrow he's failed us.

Even if he takes us down, he hasn't 'failed us' imo, and I'd hope we keep him in the championship. Not his fault we have such pony strikers; he has us set up creating umpteen chances a game, even against the big guns.

Everyone was creaming themselves when he said Potter was great blah blah. He's showing what respect he has by playing such a weakened side.

I think the difference ultimately will come down to the £20m Newcastle spent on Calum Wilson, we should of gone for him. Will cost us a lot more for not doing so. Decisions of the board and recruitment team coming back to bite us. Some very bad decisions made in pre season. What a shame. Hopefully its not a double relegation and we can have a proper clear out this summer and rebuild and maybe get promoted in the next 3 or 4 seasons
