Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

[Misfit]

I expect Ange won't be as relaxed as Kulu said he was at HT last week.

 

[evo23]

Get Richy and Bentancur on for Johnson and Biss

 

[ohtottenham!]

That Fulham play for the goal looked like so many that we have scored this season.

 

[Oscar22]

We’ve been alright, wouldn’t say good, wouldn’t say bad.

I think Dragusin has played really well on his debut.

Our passing is off, few hospital balls and a fair bit of sloppiness, but I don’t think we’ve been massively outplayed.

Pain in the arse we need to do it all in the second half again of course, but we know we’re capable of it.

I do worry just how easy we seem to be to score against, it’s not like the very best teams pick us apart and that’s all. There’s a tendency with our play that basically any team can drive a bus through us at any given time.

 

[Mr Pink]

Time for PEH

Actually a good shout.

 

[bubble07]

Sarr only player looking remotely threatening

 

[Fredo]

we'll win 2-1 its obvious

 

[Russ1201]

such a good result last week, really odd that we look to have gained no momentum or confidence from it so far.

Sadly it's what Spurs do when the pressure is on to build on momentum. Hopefully we show more effort and guile in wnd half.

 

[CookieYiddo]

Another goal for Timo today. Get your quids on it boys and girls

 

[Thenewcat]

Been even. Fulham have had chances but you’re ignoring the ones we’ve had for some reason. Maddison literally rolled it cms past the post, Johnson had a similar chance to the goal he scored against Villa and Son put a chance over the bar that he would usually finish

I’m not ignoring them, but overall we’ve been sloppy on the ball, conceded loads of dangerous positions and lacked control. This isn’t a performance Ange will be happy with at all

 

[spanners]

We are so far off the finished deal, firstly we need to work on our desire and our mentality. Fulham just made us look like amateurs.

 

[snakehipsspurs]

Pony so far. Second to every ball

 

[jolsnogross]

Another empty half from us with almost no chances created. Lots of walking football from Romero and static players receiving a pass and taking extra touches.

Not sure why we do this to ourselves so often. Fulham keep their game plan now. Commentator just said they haven't lost this season after going ahead. Given ourselves another big hill to climb.

 

[King of the Lane]

Our attacking movement and ability to exploit the space is severely lacking atm.

 

[punkisback]

If we see PEH when chasing the game I won’t be happy.
midfielders have been so poor today, Bissouma and Maddison shadows of themselves and just don’t look on it

 

[TEESSIDE1]

Kulusevski - trying to do it all himself without passing

Johnson - not making the most of the time he has on the ball

If one or both don’t buck their ideas up pronto I would be bringing both Werner and Richarlison on

 

[Sp3akerboxxx]

Been the same in the first half for ages now.

1-3 Spurs by full time.

 

[ItsBoris]

You think a 4-0 win against Villa would boost our confidence, if anything it’s done the opposite.

Slopping passes, poor touches and liberties being taken in defence. We’re lucky it’s only 1-0. Seriously poor half.

"Confidence" isn't good if it makes you complacent. Which is always seems to in our case.

Probably thought we just had to show up to get 3 points off Fulham

 

[tooey]

Dragusin has been fine but I always hate a right footer at LCB. Also, I'd much prefer Romero with his experience and leadership to play on his unnatural side, I think that's a mistake from Ange.

Bissouma has looked average for a long time. I think could do with an alternative in the summer.

We need Madison to grab this game by the scruff of the neck and start controlling the midfield.

 

[spanners]

Kulu tends to play better as the games goes on but think him off for Richarlison is the best bet

That sounds exciting.
