I couldn't agree more, as we will need our strongest sides against WBA and Brighton, because if we lost both of these games it would almost certainly mean a quick to return to the Championship next season. Robinson, unfortunately will miss both matches, but Bobby Reid will only miss tomorrow's match against United.

Last transfer window we bought well, let’s hope we do it again this time. We definitely need a striker, Gray is a decent player but he is a winger. Out and out striker for me. Majority of posters on here think we need a striker, not many of us know who though. Looking at the posts on what type of player we require would be, fast, good goal scoring record, fit, can hold the ball up, experienced in the top flight, good in the air, not to old and not to expensive. Not an easy job but if we want to survive we have to find one.
posted by Gaz - Monday 18th January 2021, 4:10 PM Not possible Gaz, sounds like Harry Kane.Be nice if we could prise Ayew from Roy at Palace. Clever player suit Fulhams style scores a few works hard. Still think Gayle would be a good fit to the Fulham style as well. Lower level striker comes with risks, foreign league strikers would probably have to isolate and would they be an improvement on what we have.
posted by denny (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 4:44 PM Really difficult Denny, my only problem with Gayle is the injury issue, he has had quite a bit of bad luck during his career. I suppose anyone can get an injury though. Agree with you about a foreign player but it’s looking like we may have to go down that road, which may be a bit late taking into consideration the self isolation rules. I would imagine that striker prices will rise due to a shortage of them. Ayew is a suggestion if Roy allows it.

We need a run of wins, perhaps after we have played the division leaders, I recon we need to win a least half of the remaining games. If we can beat all the teams just above us in the table and few others a little further away we will make. It is far from easy but Scott has got a playing well but we do not need our best players get three match bans to often or lost of injuries. Magicking up a mobile and prolific striker would make is so much easier, but as every team in the Premier League is struggling to score the competition will be as hot as it gets. I believe in Scott Parker but he and the team will need to give everything they have and more, if we are going to stay up.
posted by The Time Is Now - Monday 18th January 2021, 12:48 PM Getting 1 point from the first 18 available as a start is what we need to make up and why we are where we are in the table. To stay up in a normal season you need about 35 points. We have 12 points now so we need to get 23 points from the 21 games left, put another way we need 23 point from a potential 63 points. We have picked up 11 points from the last 11 games, maintain that rate we will be close to survival.
posted by The Time Is Now - Monday 18th January 2021, 1:15 PM Scott's overall managerial win ratio is 41% which is decent but only 18% in the PL which does not bode well.

posted by Len (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 9:56 AM As Mitro was not even on the bench on Saturday, he must be either injured still, or is slowly recovering from the virus, because not even Scotty would leave a fit Mitro off of the bench if he was available. I just wish that the club would put us in the picture with regard to the situation involving Mitro, as we really need him in our team now, and if not, we want to know the reason why.
posted by A C (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 10:12 AM AC I agree 100% Fulham need to let us know what is the problem with Mitro!! our only recognised Striker. And to the to fat & slow brigade he knows how to score GOALS!!! Which we lack...
posted by Will (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 10:51 AM The point is Will, that without a playmaker in the team to work that ball through the midfield to his feet, he will be ineffective except for set pieces floated into the box.

We play fast counter attacking football down the wings now and the game will pass him by. This is why he was not effective at Newcastle and why they let him go.

How many teams with young modern managers play with an old fashioned number nine these days? It is only Warnock, Allardyce and the like that still persevere with this way of playing. If the game and the tactics did not develop and move on, we would still be playing a 2-3-5 formation.

Personally, I like the way we play now. We are more solid in defence and more exciting to watch. Mitro will slow us down and is like sacrificing a player when he plays as he is not mobile enough. Asa previously indicated, we need a mobile false number nine who can take the ball on the run and keep up with the wingers. Someone in the style of Salah for example.


posted by MST (Moderator) - Monday 18th January 2021, 11:37 AM MST, oh for the days of 2-3-5 which I could understand,as todays formations have me baffled at times, in fact all of the time. When commentators say that they say that the team have changed their formations from one set of numbers like 4-4-2 to 5-2-3 and such like, I must be honest and say that I can't tell one set of numbers from the other, there are 10 v 10 outfield players as far as I am concerned, maybe my old brain can't work it out. However I do agree with AC and Will, inasmuch that Mitro should be in our line up, if we don't sign another striker pronto, and even if we do he should be way ahead of Kamara. You don't score 26 goals in one season, and then suddenly become a bad player, especially as to a certain extent he still has youth on his side. Hands up all of those who think he should be playing.
posted by Malden Mick (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 11:56 AM To be honest Mitro will score goals if he is told to play in the final third of the pitch. He is very good at defending corners and set pieces, if we win the ball from a corner against us and the ball is played out wide Mitro can’t catch up. Get him a strike partner and he will produce. Cav and Kamara are not the answer.
posted by Gaz - Monday 18th January 2021, 1:13 PM Mitro took a knock late on against bitters !!! Could be available for manu if he is PLAY HIM not in championship now. Where we can cobble around. We need a recognised striker if not mitro then a replacement give him a start
posted by Len (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 4:13 PM Unfortunately Mitro doesn’t look fit also really low on confidence,most of the matches I’ve seen him in this season he gives the ball away too cheaply would love to see him hit a bit of form but question weather he’s up to it.
posted by Chief (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 9:19 PM Mitro at his best is a better than average Championship player, and lets face it who will give this sluggish overweight slow git 60k per week on a 2/3 yr contract

posted by The Time Is Now - Monday 18th January 2021, 8:11 AM Mitro will feed off Tete crosses. His game went sour when Tete got injured and was out for a long time. Like on Saturday , a perfectly good cross/pass to Cavaleiro was fluffed by him.
posted by mwk (Guest) - Monday 18th January 2021, 8:57 AM In the games Mitro has played for us so far he has hardly been in the opposition box. That is why he is not a regular starter because he has forgotten what he is supposed to do.

posted by The Time Is Now - Monday 18th January 2021, 12:56 PM Patrick Schick is still only 24 and possibly still has his best scoring years to come yet? If we go in for the more obvious and proven 15-20 goal strikers, we will have competition and over-priced players because 2 or 3 clubs join the bidding. Our best hope is to go for someone like Schick also because he will possibly link up with Cavaliero and Lookman etc, which might or might not help us with goals. We as a club must take chances on players that have potential like Lookman who some were doubting. Most teams are taking that everyday same risks and the question that comes with it, is can a particular striker score 15-20 goals to save a season? Our best odds 'Time is now' is to gamble on youth for starters? Josh King will no doubt be taken up by some hopeful club, maybe West Brom? King knows that his services are desired by 6 and half dozen clubs, so he will not worry. Josh King falls into the same category as Jack Wiltshire who some poor hopeful soul will gamble on, and we know all about Jack Wiltshires fitness problems throughout his footballing career. My advice would be to leave Josh King and the likes well alone and gamble on a 24 years and 6ft 2 inch Patrick Schick? If Schick hads a much better goal record, we wouldn't get him, its as simple as...

One important detail was that Schlick featured in one loan season for Leipzig where Lookman came from. Someone asked me the question lately, 'why did Everton let go of Lookman? Fulham has always recruited these flawed gems dating back to George Best and Rodney Marsh etc. Okay' i admit they were more towards the end of their careers. The acquisition of Patrik Schlick may flick a lightbulb to Cavaliero and Reidy upfront? Sometimes the attention needs to be diverted or carried by someone more focal to bring out the best in our other guys. This is our problem at Fulham, and the likes of Cav, Lookman, and Reid need a load taken off them to shine. Schlick at age 24 might have the best years to come yet? I say' get him on board, we have nothing to lose in my opinion...

We didn't need Bryan earlier because it was all about absorbing pressure and hitting their tired legs on the break late in the game.

Personally, I thought it was a tremendous effort and we were unlucky in the end not to salvage a point. I think we would have done with 11 men on the pitch.

posted by willie2B (Guest) - Sunday 17th January 2021, 1:46 PM This is a pivotal part in our season with Robinson out for a few games. I expect Bryan will have his opportunity to fill in for Robinson. I just hope that we don't revert back to type like the old guard of ream, Bryan and Odoi, etc? We are hoping that Joe Bryan is played further up the pitch? Because it could be a disaster if he is called upon for defensive duties. Bryan will be able to maintain those balls coming in for our forwards for sure. I am not too convinced that he can add any more to his game than Robinson? Robinson is slightly pacier and just a little bit more street-wise on the pitch, but that is just my opinion. My overall point is that results did not go our way and it is imperative that we pick up points asap. Any calamities or mistakes at this point of the season will put us more in the bog-heap. Our hard to beat mentality must be maintained throughout this period. Nuff said!!!

We then have a fairly unimportant cup match on Saturday, so we can rest our main players, for the big games which will follow against Brighton, who still haven't won a home game this season and WBA, who are pretty moderate, and after which, we will really know where we stand in avoiding the drop this season.

It is the force and the aggression of the tackle that got him sent off. The contact is not relevant it is the intent and that could have seriously damaged a player. Dangerous play is a red card offence as it is a player protection measure.
posted by The Time Is Now - Sunday 17th January 2021, 8:15 AM Didn't the victim of Robinson's tackle do something similar in added time and receive only a yellow. Where's the consistency ? The ref should have asked VAR for assistance and watched the incident on his screen before brandishing the red card and perhaps the correct decision would have been reached.

posted by Californian - Sunday 17th January 2021, 1:38 AM We will only be cut adrift, if we lose to WBA, Brighton and Burnley, which is unlikely to happen, hopefully. Some pundits are saying that WBA now have a chance of avoiding the drop, but they are still a point behind us, and we have a game in hand, and we are a miles better team than them, so with more than half the season to play, we will not be cut adrift just yet.

posted by Californian - Saturday 16th January 2021, 7:54 PM Robison is our best player of course we will miss him. Before the sending off we were worrying Chelsea and could have sneaked it. A really mobile finisher would make that team so much better.
posted by The Time Is Now - Saturday 16th January 2021, 7:58 PM Agree absolutely about Robinson Time is now. Bryan has big boots to fill.

It is an open secret that our present Fulham defence is hard to breech.
posted by OWEN (Guest) - Saturday 16th January 2021, 8:10 PM Yes we are going to miss Bobby Reid and Robinson, but we have the reliable Bryan, and RLC would probably have played instead of Bobby anyway, so Robinson apart it's basically a full strength side to face Manure United.

Let's be honest, this was not a game that we would be expecting to get points from, and the same of Manchester United on Wednesday, and we would have got at least a point if Robinson had not been sent off, so all is not bad and everyone can see how good we are becoming, and we have not even reached half way through the season yet, and we will improve in leaps and bounds in the 2nd half of the season, providing of course that we either get another striker, or Mitro recovers from injury, and starts scoring again.

posted by Yawn (Guest) - Friday 15th January 2021, 10:56 PM Sorry Owen, I feel I have to reply, Kamara against Spurs, failed to take the ball with him, when he had a chance of breaking free of defenders, failed to get his head up, to put Lookman through on goal, instead running into a blind alley. He just does not have the basics you need to be a professional footballer at this level. It is not enough to run onto balls played over the top with quality defenders. Next time he plays watch his abilities, could not believe in one match when he came on as right wing back. Perhaps this is why we only have Mitrovic as a central striker, Kamara is the backup, if Parker really thought he was up to it, why is Cavaliero playing there. Kamara is the management buy, that is always included. It is not possible for him to be in the 25 man squad in a top flight team, but he will be.
posted by denny (Guest) - Saturday 16th January 2021, 7:55 AM As I have said before watching his pre match training is incredible, he does not know what to do and than sums him up he has been here a long time but learnt nothing.
posted by The Time Is Now - Saturday 16th January 2021, 11:13 AM AK47, might be a very nice chap off of the field, but on it, he is a complete waste of space, and he should never ever be even allowed to sit on the bench. He wouldn't even get into Crawley Towns team. Two words come to mind SELL HIM.
posted by Malden Mick (Guest) - Saturday 16th January 2021, 12:02 PM Good points taken on board guys' and i agree that Kamara needs improvements in his overall game. I used Kamara basically because Scott Parker is working out the soccer puzzles combined with players not up to the same standards and qualities that Lampard and Solksjaer have at their disposal. This is why i put Scott Parker above these other two managers who have all the gifted talent known possible in the modern game. Scott Parker is learning his trade with the basic bare-bones, and he must grind out results with the likes of Kamara like it or lump it. Denny' we can analyze more players like Reidy who do not necessary look up before they shoot, or take shots directly at goalkeeper instead of placing it in corners etc. Bobby Reid has more opportunity and game-time each week and he misses more on percentage than Kamara. My point is not about players abilities whatsoever, Scott Parker really needs the points to keep Fulham up with players of limited abilities if that makes sense and this will add to his growing experience to be a top manager. Scotty loves the game and he is learning more each week and even his interviews are getting better. Scotty thinks that our Fulham team are confident to get results from any team we play now. Not bad a turnaround and with limited resources and player abilities, it is more remarkable a job he is doing. It might be too early to compare Parker to Alf Ramsey, but i think you guys will get my drift.
posted by OWEN (Guest) - Saturday 16th January 2021, 2:18 PM Interestingly' all the pundits on Amazon Prime applauded Scott Parker on his subs, and more interesting is that not one of them had a negative word about Kamara, just saying, guys...
