They are a brilliant team.

Can we have done anything about their first goal though?? It was clear for fifteen minutes we had a serious problem with Ojo down their right hand side. Maybe sometimes you are powerless but there was so much warning and that was clearly an area they targetted and found success with
 
Stevens is shite - needs dropping or a replacement.

Blackman is awful - why start him over Moore??

Why play 3-5-2 against the second best side in the division who dominate wide spaces. Play 4-2-3-1 and play on the counter.

Expected us to get beat, but at least the three things above would have given us more of a fighting chance.

yeah - play a 4-2-3-1 and either drop Stevens, or at least give him some help with a left mid in front of him.

They’re just a better team. Nothing more to say on this. Even at our best it would be unlikely we got anything from this game.

Moving on...!

Agreed. Fulham are on another level tonight. Nobody will want to face them in the playoffs but they were in this kind of form at this stage last season and look what happened?. It's a hell of a race for that 2nd auto spot. No matter what happens between now and the end of the season. We've had a good 1st back in la liga!!. I M H O. UTB
 
Not much difference between the teams. Donaldson is a passenger, Stevens is a liability and Mitrovic is class. We’ve matched them apart from that. Much to look forward to because this is a very good side not that much ahead of us.

Magic Days Will Come

Fulham are taking the piss when in possession - their passing is better than three quarters of the premier league.

Come on CW - decent team talk at HT - just get among them more - you can deny them time and space without fouling like Stevens.

Yes they are very good - but lets not admire it FFS.

Bang on.

Just because Fulham are a step above doesn't mean we have to capitulate. We are giving them far too much time / space to play their A game. Let's get among them for fucks sake.
 
Defence all over the place. Getting dry bummed so far this half.

Blackman is awful??? have a word ..... after Moore gets a stupid red card then fumbles for the Reading goal....
 
i honestly don't think we are playing THAT bad, i think we would beat 2 out of 3 teams like this, but Fulham look a class above all over the pitch. they were a prem team not long ago and it shows , they have excellent technical players, Faster in every single department and that is why they are so dangerous

Didn’t expect much, but this is really really poor, no passion, no fight, poor decisions. Lumping it up to Donaldson who is doing nothing, running around like an headless chicken. Sharpe missed a good chance, Donaldson missed a sitter from a yard out. So angrey... Fulham are running us ragged (without much effort) It’s so obvious that what we are trying to do (whatever it is) is not working! We ran out of steam after about 15 minutes and after that we have been chasing shadow, Fulham aren’t even breaking sweat. Brooks should have been on after about 25 minutes but CW doesn’t change things does he... give me strength!!!

Wtf
 
Worked our way back into a bit
 
I'm sure the real officials are tied up in the changing rooms
 
case in point, Brookes releases Donaldson fast into the area and he should have hit it early, they would have.......instead he takes 2 or 3 touches and turns back around giving their whole team time to get back in and shape up
 

Jesus wept, Donaldson is shite. Every time he has a chance to attack the goal he pisses around with it often heading the wrong way until their entire team is behind the ball. We are not trying to hold on to a 1-0 lead here...
 
Absolutely schooled
 
Wtf was that lost possession far too easy, fucking wake up united.
 
They are quick, intelligent footballers, the longer we persist with cloggers like Basham, we won't be able to compete with the quality at the top of the league. Wilder was spot on, we have definitely found our level, we aren't that team that can punish teams with that extra bit of quality.

Not much between the teams? We’ve matched them? That’s why it’s 3-0, don’t know what game you are watching! This is gaaaaaaarbage boys v men, Fulham taking the piss!
 
Jesus if we had their team , playing that way, we would need to extend BDTBL very bloody quick!! Would be full every week
They are electric when they break, fast one touch stuff....if it wasn't against us it would be good to watch..... hope they do it to all our rivals from now till end of season
 
Last season we had loads of confidence but not now, no one wants the ball in case they mess up down to 9th.
 

interesting...leaves Duffy on in a game that is lost....yet in games that are close, leaves him sitting on his arse bench warming?? not sure i get that. surely he should now be protected for the more winnable games?
