Fulham aren’t a premiership team are they. Very poor in all areas.

Get down Fulham

Shearer and Crespo Crespo didn't have much to his game apart from finishing. However, looking at some YouTube clip of Sheva in his prime, I didn't realise how much he used to dribble with the ball. So that's obviously one stand out difference between him and Shearer. I mean crespo’s Ability to score every sort of goal from long range volleys to glanced headers. Shearer was a better crosser though.

Doesn't take long from having one of the best grounds in the league to one of the worst. The Ashley impact. Thanks Mike.

I stubbed my toe and it really hurt but tbh the fact I'm being shot to death puts it into perspective. Exactly. -

I start to get annoyed and then remember Mike Ashley still owns the club so losing 2 points is pretty inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. -
Yeah, you've said. Lots. It's still a foul. It's an absolute bullshit decision, yet again. Every single match. Refereeing decisions can go against you. Stuff like fouls on defenders and goalkeepers are fatal. This one isn’t 100% a foul. Even Rafa doesn’t think it’s a foul. In these instances you need your player to be strong and only be beaten by a massive foul/incident. Some arms on him. No body. No push. Boly wanted it more and he did so fair enough imo. De Jong wanted it more. http://a.abcnews.go.com/images/Sports/GTY_soccer_controversial_2010_kick_kab_140625_4x3_992.jpg

The accounts which we'll probably see in the next few days are going to leave many scratching their heads on where the money actually is. -
Rooney scored 208 goals in the premier league. In 16 seasons. Average of 13 goals a season vs Henry's 22 and Shearer's 20. I'm not saying Rooney isn't involved in any all-time PL debate, but in terms of strikers, those two are untouchable at the moment as far as I'm concerned. Again I know he didn't always play as a striker, but still. Aye well you've hit the nail on the head with your last point really. He was moved all over the place. Out wide in earlier years to accommodate Ronaldo. When Ronaldo left he played centre forward for 3 years and scored 64 in 94. Some use it as a black mark against him that he ended up in midfield etc. but he was just so good in other areas of his game that he was able to moved elsewhere to suit the team. If Rooney played centre forward for his entire premier league career he'd have shattered the goal record IMO. Only Kane has a proper shot at it for the foreseeable future. Didn't he stop playing centre forward because he wasn't any good at it by that point of his career though? It's a bit of a stretch to claim that he'd continue scoring at the same rate as when he was in his prime.

It's acceptable if the ref hasn't seen it as a foul, although given Dubs had comfortably caught about 8 similar crosses, I'd like to think the ref seen at least something out of the ordinary that was worthy of consideration. I can't get away with people who have seen the replay claiming it isn't a foul. That's because a lot of people refuse to admit they made a mistake. For more examples, via any debate about Brexit.

Fake I think (hope).

So do you think players should be allowed to put their hands on the keeper when they're about to catch the ball? Should that be part of the game? Leverage init, goes on all the time with attackers and defenders vying for headers unpunished. Part and parcel of the game albeit when it happens to keepers the ref normally calls for a foul, wrongly. Officials though, eh? Literally in the rule book: • It is an offence to restrict the movement of the goalkeeper by unfairly impeding him

Teams get a ridiculous amount of crosses in to score from, that's the problem. Yedlin, Ritchie, Dummett, Manquillo, Kenedy; none of them have been good enough at stopping the supply this season. All been dogshit (being a bit harsh on Dummett there, but wingers get far too many crosses in against him).

Agree with this. He looked assured bar the odd time he came for it and then backtracked. Handling was really good. Then that in the 95th minute. He’s trying to relieve the pressure. They were getting a flurry of corners and crosses in, he’d been taking everything. If he’s not fouled he’s catches it, falls on top of the ball, launches it and it’s game over. Wasn't a foul though. Should have been though. If we're 1-0 down in the 95th minute and that happens down the other end of the pitch with Rondon and the goal gets disallowed everyone would be up in arms and saying it's a perfectly legitimate goal, which it was. If that happens down the other end, the foul WOULD be given. I don't think so. There's not a foul there to give. He gets up earlier than Dubravka and the Keeper makes a poor decision to try to catch it under pressure and is beaten to the ball. He's beaten to the ball because it goes through his hands due to Boly hitting his right arm and then leaving it on his face. Boly is up in the air first and in a completely natural heading movement. He's playing the ball not Dubravka. I dont think there's a rule in place that says the keeper cant be touched at all. • It is an offence to restrict the movement of the goalkeeper by unfairly impeding him

Only seen the freeze frame but looks a clear foul to me. Any touch on a keeper in the box is given as a foul for every other team.
-
I’m overjoyed that I used points to bring Sane in. Now I can’t drop him because he’ll start playing again. Fuck you Pep.

This is all a bit grim, but a dead body in the ocean would be picked apart by scavengers easily within a month.

5 Liverpool players? What’s the dream team limit?

Fulham are terrible.
