The Bassey and Tosin partnership is looking better every time. Tosin all 6ft 4 of him is awesome and a great goal!!! Jimenez is starting to look like there are more goals coming from him more than running water from the Thames. Vinny got 'er' a knock in which they will say my great gran can score. COME ON FRED AND OLD UN' SAY IT, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TOO!!!!! LOL....

Steady on Owen, you are reflecting one the one game against Nottingham Forest. Whilst there is much to be positive about we should wait and see the outcome of our next five or six games. I agree with much and thought the same about some of our players with Tosin making the biggest impact, but he pace was slow and understanding it will take him tome to get fully fit, then will he stay at Fulham , I think not. Much to be optimistic about so let's hope the team stays focused and confident
posted by MG (Guest) - Saturday 09th December 2023, 7:33 AM Yes i agree with everything said MG and my reflection on Fulham over one game is over the top. Our loss to Liverpool was not a surprise in the least and we didn't expect a win up there anyway. Saying that, to score 3 against them was truly exceptional and they will say that they had this or that player out etc. Teams such as Liverpool and City are huge and benched players are no second-string outfits no matter what they say. Liverpool will most likely keep their unbeaten record at Anfield this season but not many teams will score as much as 3 up there so we are in fact growing and developing our game tentatively without Mitrovic. We needed that sort of game against Forest who have some good players we could easily accommodate and yes Tosin will be tested and put to the sword more so against a more robust and rugged West Ham who we don't beat very often. It is interesting to see partnerships developing on the pitch such as Bassey and Tosin but can we keep everybody happy at our level of development at Fulham? Marco wants two in every position to cover injuries and such like and it is interesting to see if we can pull it off and keep everybody happy. Young players who show anything from smaller teams such as ours are always off somewhere when someone shows interest. We have seen the devastation it has when Mitrovic was sold and it has taken time to heal and adjust our game. This is why we never progress and hit the dizzy heights of the top 6 many times in our history. The excellent Palhinha who we haven't touched on was vital also in the forest game and his blocks and tackles were exceptional as per usual. It is no secret that Palhinha will also depart and once again this will create another problem maybe bigger than the Mitrovic one unless we hit paydirt with the Brazillian defence mid who will replace him. Maybe i should just enjoy us Fulham and shut up because Fred and old un will tell me i am talking a load of codswallop which I probably am...

This new set up is encouraging. However it was only Forest as the media keep emphasising (although he did a similar job at Liverpool). Let’s see what tomorrow brings. We do look a lot better and Jimenez is now the real deal

posted by Bob (Guest) - Friday 08th December 2023, 4:54 PM Soothsayer, why don't you make up your mind. Lower down you predict 0-3 to West Ham, and now you have forecast 1-2. Why don't you forecast another 10 results, then actually you might just get one right. I doubt it of course, as you are always forecasting a Fulham loss. I agree that this is a tough one, and they always seem to pinch the points from us, especially with their hands, but maybe just maybe, we might just nick this one, but if push comes to shove I will settle for a point each, say 1-1, and hopefully a highly entertaining game, worth getting wet for, especially walking through the sodden Bishops Park.

The last two games before last night made the players realise that they could score goals without Mitro. The attacking players we are all getting in places to make chance and took most of the chances created. When we defend we have everyone back who try very hard to win the ball back so everyone can get on the attack again. The best think about last night was the beaming smile on Jiménez's face when he scored his cheeky second goal. This really looks like the turning point of our season.
posted by The Time Is Now - Thursday 07th December 2023, 12:04 PM

We looked like Man City at their best last night.
posted by The Time Is Now - Thursday 07th December 2023, 12:05 PM I have to hold up my hands and say that I was person who felt that Jimenez, after his head injury, had completely lost his confidence, understandably, and that he was unlikely ever to regain his old form. I was not alone. Marco believed otherwise, persevered in the face of much criticism, and was prove right. Who would have thought our manager would know better than a whole lot of ‘sages’ on this site? Unbelievable, but there you are. He has looked very effective in the last two games and I hope this is what we can continue to look forward to. All those dodgy signings: Iwobi, Bassey, Castagne and Toure looked pretty good to me last night. Long may they continue to perform, then we might just have the makings of a stable PFL squad. Thought last night was an excellent team performance with everyone making a real contribution. In Silva we trust, seems he might know what he’s doing. Loved seeing Tom back and in typical fashion controlling the game, with the help of a few others. Excellent stuff.
posted by Observer (Guest) - Thursday 07th December 2023, 12:37 PM Always seems that Marco knows each players needs, whether new recruits or established, and will introduce or select them at opportune moments. For example Iwobi and Bassey weren't immediately put straight into team but are now an established player in the team. Plus TC is showing how Marco motivates even long established players to go and prove their worth and value. No wonder Marco was most sought after coach in the summer and we are very fortunate that he has decided to stay and provide his services to Fulham FC.

I was absolutely delighted to witness tonight's match, although unfortunately only on the TV. I know that Nottingham Forest were poor, but we made them look poor. Marco, is slowly and surely building up a pretty decent Premier League side, and thank goodness, despite our fans criticisms, he has stuck by Jimenez, and we are gradually reaping the rewards. With Bassey, Iwobi, Castagne, looking outstanding, and now Jimenez, has joined the happy band. I'm regrettably going to say, that we didn't miss our Tim Ream tonight. I for one was thrilled to bits when we signed Jimenez and Troare, but was beginning to believe that I was wrong, but once Troare is fit, we will really see us shoot up the table.
posted by LTS (Guest) - Wednesday 06th December 2023, 11:00 PM Marco was right to persist with Jiménez a once he is full of confidence after his last two displays he will become a consistent scorer I hope from now on. His second goal was by a man full of confidence. Lets demolish West Ham on Sunday in a similar way.
posted by The Time Is Now - Wednesday 06th December 2023, 11:58 PM A fantastic result, not only for the 3 points but the emphatic nature of the win.

posted by LTS (Guest) - Wednesday 06th December 2023, 9:28 PM At last quality team selection? They all played exceptionally well and i like the look and solidness of Bassey and Tosin. Pereira had a decent game and Cairney who supposedly cannot play 90 minutes, played 90 minutes plus again. It is worth saying again that we have found a way of playing without Mitrovic which takes time. A wel played to Jimenez who was much bold and braver in front of goal and he looked hungrier still. Jimenez didn't want the sub and thats how it should be. Good sub in Toure who isa strong as an ox. Times are now interesting at Fulham and lets see how much more improvement is to come from Jimenez and others before January.

posted by Sw6 (Guest) - Wednesday 06th December 2023, 7:13 AM I have been saying for a while if we do not have a striker who will 100% use someone in the squad who will. I would replace the striker with Cairney who works hard and creates and scores goals, what an attacking midfielder is supposed to do. The midfielders we consistently play are rare scorers. The other problem is that for too long we have relied for one very good player to score most of the goals. until we get such an efficient striker again, perhaps in 20 years, we need to learn to play without one, as a lot of teams do. It used to be traditional to have two strikers but that became unfashionable so we went down to one, it may become fashionable to not have one at all. In our case as our three strikers rarely score goals so if we play without one we tell all our players, as clearly as possible, it is up to them to score they will probably do it and it really cannot be worse and may be a lot better.

Tapping the ref on the shoulder??!! Are you sure!! Personally, I think Man City players had every right to be surrounding the ref. He waved play on when Haarland was fouled, waited for the trhough ball and then when Grealish was through on goal, he blew for a foul. Very suspicious in my opinion...

If we had midfielders who could consistently hammer the ball into the net from the edge of the penalty area we would be a much better team. We scored 3 workmen-like goals they scored four woldies, which is difficult to compete against. We played well and that is what Marco must stress through the disappointed. The best team consistently win from losing situation, we must learn that trick. They also are very good at hanging onto winning situations.
posted by The Time Is Now - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 5:13 PM Very Good word by the manager “Clearly, we deserved much more from the game than what we took,” Silva said. “To come to Anfield and play the way we did – twice we scored to equalise, and then at the end of the second half to be able to score a great team goal and to be leading the score is not an easy thing. And we did it. “This afternoon, the way they scored the goals, the first two were world class – a free-kick and that great, great goal from Mac Allister. It’s not easy to do something against these types of situations. “These goals aren’t something that happen often. They didn’t create much, apart from the two goals first half, we didn’t give them much space behind our backline. “Second half was the same, they had a big chance on a counter attack with Salah and Darwin, but nothing more. “We knew that after all the changes the game was going to be much more open for us to create more chances and try to score the third goal, and we did it in a good style. I have to say our third goal was a very good goal from ourselves. “We know the game is never 100 per cent under control against these types of sides and these types of crowds, but the game was more or less under control. [Then] one long ball, a good second ball from them, and another great finish from the edge of the box. “In that moment I knew it was the end of the match. I wanted to make a change quickly to calm the game down again, and in that moment [after] a mistake from us they scored the fourth goal. “The players clearly didn’t deserve what they took from the game. Many, many positives from them, the boys have to be proud of what they did. “Unfortunately for us we didn’t take what we deserved, but in this way we are going to get the points in the next few games.”
posted by The Time Is Now - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 5:56 PM Just arrived home, and what a rotten journey, and what a disappointing result, as we played so very well, but I must admit their late goals were almost unstoppable. Talking to quite a decent couple of Liverpool fans going away from the ground, they were very complimentary about the way we played. Sometimes however you can always praise the opposition when you win. In the car the four of us, weren't too miserable, and we all agreed that Jedi had a top showing, and was our MOM. Can we produce this type of performance against Nottingham Forest, is anyone's guess, but if we can then we will win.

posted by Cottager (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:25 PM We need some midfielders who can hammer the ball into the net from the edge of the penalty area.
posted by The Time Is Now - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:26 PM No matter how lower a team we play in this division we cannot last bast 80min. Conclusion LACK OF FITNESS ~ POOR TACTICS BY MANAGER.
posted by Fred (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:32 PM Any of watched the full game? I did. We played really well and competed. Liverpool scored 4 goals and none of which Fulham could stop. 2 of those goals were world class. So let’s give Fulham, players and Marco some credit for this game.
posted by JohnC (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:34 PM Totally in agreement Fred. wake up marco get the lazy gits fit. And seriously look at your tactics at latter stages of games

posted by Putney pete (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:45 PM Agreed a good game but the manager must address this late fitness problem.
posted by Riverside (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:49 PM I think we have to be pragmatic with the result. It's easy to consider this a great day, but the sensible realisation is we are left zero points. I'd like to see us move on from this conversation now.
posted by Final (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 4:56 PM Ted' nothing much wrong in Marco's tactics. We exchanged Pereira, Wilson, for Cairney and B Reid which got us to 3-2 nothing wrong in that. I could argue that Willian, Cairney and Reid should have been on quicker or from the start but we are not managers. There are a lot of reasons and dynamics to why sub now or later and Willian who had a good game last week is 35 i think? I was hoping Jimenez who had a quiet game to chip in with a goal but still not much from him, i can't understand that one...
posted by OWEN (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 5:19 PM Yeah come on Marco lost marginally to a team that costs 10 times what we cost and 15 points more than us,your all idiots

posted by Old Un (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 7:42 PM Old Un' i was just trying to be polite, Jimenez is not much cop. Marco is overdoing it with him in the hope that he will come good. It must be a Portuguese something or other, Jimenez just can't do it. The question is what will or what can Marco do? I would have hauled his b-ck-side off in the first half and put Vinny on who isn't scoring many either and that decision will also get criticism. Marco has made some clangers and maybe his next decision should be with the Khans or through the old trustee laptop? Lol! My point is that the next transfer striker we pick has got to be good or we fail again and January is not exactly the best time to buy strikers...
posted by OWEN (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 8:35 PM I've asked for this conversation to come to a close as I don't think it's productive now.
posted by Final (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 8:52 PM Time to get a dose of the Vapors and turn to a Japanese bargain. Ayase Ueda, currently out of favour at Feyenoord and c as n be had for €4 million. Khan spends that on moustache wax and therapy for Tony’s men in tights fetish. I really think so.

Half-time, bring on Cairney, B Reid, and Vinny. They are bossing us for possession but we knew that would be the case. Is Willian fit? Holding on to the ball for more than seconds would do us more favours.
posted by OWEN (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 3:04 PM Wilson and Pereira who does very little these days off! Willian and Cairney on still 2-2..

posted by Dellers (Guest) - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 5:23 PM We lost because Liverpool did not want to lose to a team like Fulham and raised their game and scored two unstoppable goals to do it. I do not see what Marco could have done to stop it. We could have given two penalties away an had two players sent off, would that have been better.
posted by The Time Is Now - Sunday 03rd December 2023, 5:27 PM After watching forest last night and the into of the chesea lad seen him a few times this season definitely not an improvement to our squad dodged a bullet there reckon they will go down on there last couple of displays think there manager is-definitely on thin ice defeat on Wednesday will put big pressure on him there chairman bit of a loose cannon there’s already rumours think he crap anyway think his transfer policy reflects this

I also learned an interesting fact yesterday, the Saudi’s don’t allow the Flintstones to be shown on television but the Abu Dhabi do.
