[Too Much Too Young]

Have faith.

[Massive Attack]

Fulhams Team starting with 35 year old biddie Tom Cairney in midfield and 34 year old codger Raul Jimenez up front.

[Massive Attack]

Please let us get an early goal here. The longer this one goes the more of a liability that lineup becomes. 

But if we do his only option is to then park the bus. Which the idiots who are all jovial at seeing a championship striker and no midfield will no doubt be up in arms about when we've drawn 1-1. 

Or how about go and score a 2nd whilst we have our tails up scoring early? Bollocks to parking any buses tonight.

[Massive Attack]

We've only beaten Burnley in last 5 League matches - Wolves more recent form is better than ours having beaten Liverpool, Villa and drawing against Arsenal and Forest. It's true we've improved since Spurs but it's still not enough if we want to dig ourselves out of this hole altogether. This is a must win game when you consider we have Man City chasing the title next with games running out. Only 9 League games left after tonight. We don't have much of a choice now and yes it is a risk but one I think we really do have to take if we are serious about surviving. A draw is almost as bad as a loss right now with City up next. 3 points however would be absolutely MASSIVE.

love it. if the manager's trying to win, I'm happy. packing the midfield has put us in this shit position

[Vexed]

Good Strong Line-up for this Must Win game.

It's attacking which it had to be. We had to take some risk tonight knowing a win is most important. 

 

 

We didn't need to take unnecessary risk though, we're in decent form, this feels desperate. What happens when Wilson is knackered after 30mins and we're not winning? Park the bus? Waste Bowen up top? We need to be 2-0 up by half time or this is fucked. This is desperate rolling the dice and it doesn't need to be. 

[fraser]

I'm also concerned about being overrun in midfield but also understand we need to go for this so let's go get 3 points

[Vexed]

Fernandes and Soucek won't get overrun tonight.

There will be a big fucking hole in the middle of the park. Perhaps Todibo is going to step up when Soucek is stranded upfield. 

[Massive Attack]

Fernandes and Soucek won't get overrun tonight.

[Elpojohn]

Good Strong Line-up for this Must Win game.

[Vexed]

At least he has finally seen sense and dropped Magassa.

Much better to be overrun in midfield right? 

[Massive Attack]

Where's the actual Away thread?

[Come On You Irons]

At least he has finally seen sense and dropped Magassa.

[gpike]

Good the greek tragedy has been benched

[Vexed]

Nuno brain farts under pressure again, that's a shit lineup for this game.

Fulham are a good set piece team reportedly, so keep the goalkeeper who is four feet tall and terrified of crosses. Remove the most aerially dominant central defender, give up the midfield by playing the pitiful Wilson which simultaneously means we'll struggle to stop crosses into the box but also have nowhere to go after thirty minutes if we're not winning before Wilson is knackered. 

I think that's a fucking shitshow. 

[Massive Attack]

                             Hermansen 

Wan-Bissaka Mavropanos Todibo Diouf

   Bowen  Fernandes Soucek Summerville 

                             Taty Wilson 




 

 

 

Looks like I got my wish bar Mavropanos. We had to go for it tonight. Good early indication of that.

[twoleftfeet]

The good Wilson out injured.
