Stifler Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, Andy said: It was a frustrating game again for the most part, but a few spells aside, I think people are overrating Fulham's performance like. I don't think Pope made a save? They were tidy enough but it was a similar performance to Leeds from them, just defensively a bit more leaky. We made the game closer than it should have been by being a bit wasteful in the final third. This pretty much. Fulham came to try and see the game out by slowing it down. They managed to make it scrappy in parts, our quality was beginning to show when Bruno got injured. There was a spell in the 2nd half where we had adjusted to having Bruno off and looked like scoring again, then the penalty decisions happaned. That slowed the game down a bit and it took us a little while to get going again. Fulhan didn’t do anything that I wouldn’t expect from a mid table team coming for a point.

KaKa Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Just now, CFlan said: How worried are you about Bruno? Not the injury but the fact he was crying in public. Can’t trust a “man” like that in our engine room. He was crying because he was that disappointed he would have to come off and couldn't help his team. He's a man of great character.

STM Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Just to be clear, if anyone says Longstaff was poor today them I'm sorry but your wrong. Without him our midfield may have collapsed today. Ratings: Pope 7 Top shithousery for the pen, nowt to do otherwise. Trippier 5 Poorest game for us, still love him Schar 7 Really tried to drive us forward Botman 7 Solid as usual Burn 6 Was done a few times Willock 6 One of his quieter days Bruno 7 Come back sweet Prince Longstaff 8 Man of the Match, tireless and got the key pass Joelinton 8 In great form Wilson 7 Still not in form but got the assist Almiron 7 Bright enough Isak 8 Scored. 3 in 4.

toontownman Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Thanks to the ghost of Rafa tickling Mitros leg and making him slip. Some epic defending from Fulham and some soft finishing (wilson) certainly made this closer than it should have been. Fulham played well and are a decent side. Hopefully Bruno isn't out long, likewise hope we bring someone in soon. Hopefully two starters, at least one to the midfield. Big boost for Isak and the squad as a whole to grind out the win. We need to keep that mentality. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyc35i Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 We still deserved the win and it should have been more comfortable. The penalty wasn’t a penalty and I don’t understand why VAR makes the referee look at that when he saw it fine first time and didn’t think it was. You can’t then go and look at the replay without taking in the whole action into account (which was a foul on Trippier first). That’s the same poor review process just like the Willock incident against Palace Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goodness ... think some people aren't realising what Fulham are doing this season, you should try and catch some of their other games. I get that, its taking no credit away from them, Ream and Diop were very good. I feel we were very flat, probably deserved to edge it but we've battered better opposition than Fulham.

Big Geordie Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Huge result, even if it owed a wee bit to a rub of the green (for the pen) This version of NUFC always keep at it - great spirit, even when they aren't playing well. MoM for me was Big Jo. He was everywhere - after owing everyone a performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush totally agree on Longstaff. someone earlier gave him a 5.5 lol....seems the lad cant do anything right. Other than the usual sky high shot his movement. tackling and off the ball running was one of the highlights today. credit where due. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longstaff amd Willock always run themselves into the ground, and they are both good athletes. But they aren't top four class and it shows at times. Not a criticism, just looking ahead to where we are going with this team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Longstaff or Schär MOM for me. Thought every one else was a bit under cooked especially Wilson and Botman; more due to impeccable standards set that anything else though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Do think Fulham have given the second best performance of an away team at SJP all season, have to give them credit. we are just so relentless it must really be knackering for everyone else Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Players like Longstaff are still trying to build trust with the fans. I think it's high time he's given a break. We know he lacks quality but he's our engine man and we've had plenty of years of heartless fuckers in there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
