Pata Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 12 minutes ago, Begbie said: Great to get the 3 points, but that was a shit show. What I notice is that some of the players arent listening to the instructions from Howe. Ie. Often this season you can see Howe screaming to Gordon and try to get him to track back but he looks like not responding. Gordon has been one of our best players this season, imo before xmas he was tracking more back. The way Howe wants us to play(like we played last season) everyone has to be on board and work for each other, is he starting to loose some players? I cant see Bruno and Isak wanting to stay if we in the future play like we have done for most of this season. Hard-fought 1-0 away win with half the squad missing and you are speculating if Howe has lost the players? Fucking desperate to have a whinge.

OverThere Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 23 minutes ago, Gawalls said: Also people keep having a pop at halls defensive skills but correct me if I’m wrong but in last three games none of the goals we conceded was when he was on the pitch. So this is a strange one. He does seem a bit weak defensively but when beaten it seems to be mostly on the outside. Maybe now we have BDB in the middle crosses into the box are more easily dealt with Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 'Gritty' away win, after a really poor first half. Really good finish by Bruno for the winner, after VAR seemed intent on denying us the win, with Schar's earlier strike. More injuries though. It's never ending.

STM Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 I'm convinced Willock wasn't an injury. He's got the heart of a pea. I absolutely adore him as a player but he's another player that I'd listen to offers for if we need cash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking desperate to have a whinge. Init I can understand people criticising the first half hour. As it was tragic. But we grew into it and despite Fulham having all the ball. They barely threatened second half bar loads of corners. We were a bit wasteful and arguably had the better of it on chances in the end. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonas Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Used to be tricky customers these. Proper got their number now. 5 wins in a row, 6wins and two draws in the last 8, if I'm not mistaken Charlton went the same way after being a right pain in the erse.

Scoot Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 Terrible first 20 minutes from us but we seemed to come into it a bit more after. Second half was a lot better but wasn't fantastic. But I'm not going to slate anyone as we're down to the bare bones now and we've been in a similar position most the season. Yet we still find ourselves in the hunt for Europe and have take 7 points fro the last 9 available. Get in lads! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gawalls Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 7 minutes ago, Matt1892 said: That was more down to Fulham and their final ball decision making rather than good defending on our part, they were walking through us in the first half. Again - they’ve scored against every team since January so they can’t be that going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there was a twinge or whatever but some players lack bottle for the battle. I don't like Longstaff but in the same circumstances Longstaff stays on the pitch.

Pata Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) If he was injured when he stole the ball and got kicked, it definitely only looked like a knock and hopefully nothing more serious. He's searching for his form but we simply need every player possible to just be available for this stretch. Edited April 6 by Pata Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my first season (88/89) think we beat them once (at Upton Park under KK) and every game was brutal until the CL Sir Bobby win, not sure we lost after that.
