Down to 11 fit senior players. Two players on the bench I'd genuinely never heard of. Bailey and Torres both strapped up and playing through injuries for weeks. Cash playing in midfield tonight because there is nobody else. Zaniolo is on the bench but not fit, we lost Rogers and Tielemans for the rest of the season in the last couple of weeks.

 

Absolutely knackered after 55 or so games.

 

We'll finish fourth but yeah, absolutely staggering over the line. 

 

What a fucking season though, over 100 goals in all competitions, won more premier league games than at any point in the last 30 plus years, took 6 points off Arsenal and 3 off Man City.

 

18 months ago we were fucking dead, and dying slowly and agonisingly. If you'd told me then we'd be in a European semi final now, I'd think you were joking (or assumed it was some sort of shitty pre-season round robin tournament).

 

Why wasn't Moreno or Chambers on the bench?

I think the CL will be "easier" next season. No playing 3 higher ranked sides and that's it. At least you play 2 from each seeding pot including your own.

Newcastle will leave them in our wake next year as they will find out as we found out the need for two first teams.

 

Us and Villa are pretty even pegging at the moment. We had the better season last year, they have had the better season this year.

Moreno is carrying an injury and pretty sure Chambers wasn't named in the CL squad.

 

Also, even if he had been, he's rubbish.

Controversial.

 

Villa were rubbish - in that European semi final they just played in.

 

Mind you, some of our fans probably agree with that.

Seems like fatigue is kicking in. You also went on a bad streak after beating Arsenal and City in december. Another bad streak now after beating Arsenal. Do you think these games had a huge impact on the players in terms of fitness, and that's a part of it? Beating these teams takes some really really hard work. Especially that Man City game.

Don't know if it's been mentioned but there's no Adarabioyo in the Fulham squad today. Was it someone on here who said he'd been invited to our game today?

 

He's not listed on the injury list so could be some truth in it OR could just be he's left out because Fulham know he's leaving so aren't bothering with him.

Possible that he’s agreed a move and isn’t being played to avoid injury

Not a chance he'll be at our game whilst still a Fulham player

 

He's likely to not be playing because he's told them he isn't staying

Informally he could have agreed something I suppose. Not that Fulham would have to respect anything like that anyway, could well have been the players decision.

 

He wasn't in their last squad either so it's definitely an injury, must be contract related.

It would be unusual obviously but I see no actual reason that he couldn't. If Fulham have chosen to leave him out then he can do whatever he wants although I agree that I don't think he will be at St James's.
