Suspect we’ll bring Brewster on at the 60-65 minute mark and when it happens it will give all our players a big lift.

Another point is when Brewster DOES come on he will be fresh and will have a slight advantage over the Fulham defenders.
That very small advantage might reap rewards or at least help him play well....boosting his confidence.

Lowe doesn't look good, he's gonna have to go off

 

[Brother-Leech]

Can this guy on my stream stop praising Loftus Cheek for giving Lowe concussion please?

 

[McGoaldrick]

Poor lad

 

[Sheffsteel]

Lowe doesn't look good, he's gonna have to go off

It’s amazing how (apart from the Coutts leg break) Wilder was incredibly lucky with injuries for 4 years.
However this year almost every match something has happened in the early stages meaning we’ve needed to change pre game tactics/ formations.
Suspect Lowe is better in an attacking sense than Stevens.....and Wilder saw this game as a chance to attack...so without Lowe we now lose that threat.

 

[FatPaul]

We look a much better team today. Nerves have almost settled.

 

[GKhantRebel]

Poor lad

Yeah, a real shame he's had to go. Himself and Enda looked to be pretty comfortable playing down the left together.
Lowe did make a wayward pass early on that could have potentially been costly but we got possession back and created a half chance from it.
Enda seems to be bringing his international form with him. Looking much better today so far.

 

[FriethBlade]

Lunny is doing well down the left. Need more from Berge

 

[FriethBlade]

You CAN NOT miss those

 

[Big.Dane.w]

You CAN NOT miss those

Mcburnie can

 

[Sheffsteel]

McBurnie should have scored with that header from almost point blank range....excellent save by their keeper but it was headed almost straight at him.

Easily the best chance of the match......it’s been a decent match so far....we’re being quite positive pushing numbers forward.

Lunny is doing well down the left. Need more from Berge

Berge playing well, dunno what else u want

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

McBurnie reminds me of Connor Salmon. A really tall striker who should be a threat on goal with his head, but isn't. Fuck me, how many chances does Mcburnie need to score?

 

[Geordie Blade]

Finally, Berge has a crack! I hope he does that more - he gets into positions for a shot really well.

If he added shooting and heading to his locker he’d be worth £80m.

 

[shrubbery]

completely toothless up front again. If only we had signed a goalscorer during the window.

 

[Kev Gee]

OMB. Should have a brace by now. I really hope these missed chances don't come back to bite us.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Ball flashes across the 6 yard box....everyone just leaves it. McBurnie caught on his heels not expecting it.
He should have done what Sharp does.....anticipate...gamble...and expect defensive mistakes....then would have been a tap in.

 

[FriethBlade]

How many chances ?

 

[nickwr37]

Noooooo! McB surely has to bag one.

 

[Drunk blade]

Got to happen at half time can't keep missing these chances

 

[The Bear]

Mcburnie can

How the hell that bloke is worth £20m God knows. He is rubbish as a forward.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

McBurnie header actually hit him on the shoulder somehow.

 

[JPSharpy93]

Get McBurnie off now, how many chances does that donkey need

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

We're creating big chances and not taking them. Again.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

If only there was a match thread to post such comments.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

I hate games like this. We need to score soon or all these missed chances will bite us in the arse, or Fulham might come out and park the bus in the second half.

We're playing brilliant football but unfortunately we've got an ineffective, wasteful donkey up front.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Mcburnies playing well

 

[essyoueffsee]

We're creating big chances and not taking them. Again.

Just about to say, we'll get punished yet again for missing everything. And there's a man on the bench that probably could've scored 2 of them by now.
