Fulham look a decent side. Don’t know why they are third bottom?

Because they don’t win many

Funny when we draw lots of games we aren’t good enough... when Fulham do it they are ‘a decent side’

First goal in 4 games at home

Sound familiar ?

Guardiola, post match...

"We struggled against Brighton in the last game - they are one of the best teams for creating chances, so it has been hard for us. Maybe they are not clinical but they are good"

I like the way he's forgotten the Palace game

That’s more like it 1-1 [emoji30]

"Keeper probably should have done better"...Jermaine you're robbing a living!

I have said there are still question marks about Lampard, but in terms of how he has done as manager thus far:

1. 2018/19 - Derby to the Play-Off Final = over-achieved.
2. 2019/20 - Getting Chelsea to a 4th place Champions League spot and an FA Cup Final having sold Eden Hazard and whilst under a transfer embargo = over-achieved.
3. 2020/21 - 8th spot in Prem, topped group in Champions League, still in FA Cup = jury out.

Anyway, re tonight. I see Fulham are winless in their last 12 vs Man Utd, 2 draws, 10 defeats. Last time they beat them was 20009 when a certain Bobby Zamora got on the scoresheet.

Lampard didn’t over achieve at Derby.

They were in the midst of a crazy player buying and borrowing spree.

On club income of just £29m, their annual payroll costs were £47m and growing, a squad that cost £51m and growing. Lampard called in favours to get PL players in on loan - Mount, Wilson and Tomori.

FFP cheat Mel Morris and Lampard tried to blitz their way to promotion, holding significant squad advantages over almost every other club, and they still failed.

Draw specialists. Amen.

 

[Steve Foster]

Few 1-1.

Unlike WBA & Sheffield Utd who look doomed - Fulham don’t play like a side who are expecting relegation.

Both us & Fulham could / should stay up - if a few wins can be notched up.

Perhaps Burnley or Newcastle could fall through the trap door?

Who?

 

[Driver8]

Sadly their star youngster (Lookman) is only out for one game. It’s their bang average young full back (Robinson) who is banned for three games.

Lookman is playing tonight so I guess he wasn’t suspended.

 

[hampshirebrightonboy]

Who?

Guardiola

 

[LamieRobertson]

Guardiola

Erm...it was a joke....”palace”...who?..ok wasn’t that good first time round

It is Decordova-Reid who picked up a 5th booking against Chelsea and misses tonight's match.

Ah, thanks.

 

[Mancgull]

Robinson was sent off v Chelsea and is suspended for three games.
We could do with Anguissa picking up a second yellow in the second half.

 

[Peter Grummit]

Fat Frank could do with Loftus-Cheek back at the Bridge.

Before next Wednesday. Please.

Fulham look decent. They’ve given Spurs, Chelsea and now United a real game in their last three..Won’t be any easy game by any means.
