Fulham @ Villa

I can't wait to go to this match...fans will definitely be up for it.

Now, question one. Do we keep the same line up??

Keep in mind, I believe Papa is healthy and ready to go.

 

Papa MUST start... it would be ridiculous if he didnt. I think the back four could be adjusted to, I dont care how good they were last time.

I think the only thing that really should stay the same should be the strategy (the first one of the CC era) of shadowing their inlet playmakers...

YOU CAN DO IT!

From what I have read, he is still hurt. Expect him back for the Portsmouth match.

Big match for us on Saturday! I am hoping we can finally get that first road win. If the team plays with the same kind of heart and desire as was on display against Chelsea, we can easily win this match. However, it will not be that easy.

No papa, no Putney and no Elliot. How bridge got hurt again is beyond me...he was supposedly ready to play last week but couldn't due to his loan agreement with Fulham.

I don't even want to give a line up but I honestly would take the same line up as last week if they can guarantee the same heart and fire.

COYW's.

HTH is Elliot still hurt?

Not that he should be starting, but I dont think he missed 3 games in the last 2 years!

What do they DO to them at Motspur!!!!

What is strange is that when the starting XI trotted out on the pitch before last Sunday's match, I had all but conceded the match. I thought to myself, how the hell are Pearce, Pembridge and Zat going to manage against Chelsea? Well, they did.

Like Mike, I am not so confident this same bunch came perform at that high of a level again this week, but they at least deserve a go. I think tomorrow might be a good day for Fulham.

 

Quoted from the ESPN preview. I hope the movie and dinner take some of the pressure off from this game. :3d footy:

 

Well, the match ended 0-0. I guess a point on the road is nothing to complain about. It would have been nice to get a win, but any points are good points.

With upcoming matches against Portsmouth and Sunderland, Fulham should win two in a row. Or at least I hope they will.

 

Real quick.

The match was boring from both ends but the fans were great and we all had a grand time with the singing. It was an away sell out and we clapped the boys off the pitch...bring on Pompey, we're ready.

 

I have been impressed with our defense over the past two matches: only 5 shots allowed on goal.

The back line for these two matches? Pearce,Knight,Rosenior,Volz -- never thought I'd be including Zat Knight in a kudo.

 

Pearce has been impressive as of late...didn't think he had it in him. Liam is class up the wing, Volz is gaining his confidence back and Zat, to be fair, has been solid. Keep it up boys!

 

The defense has played well, but I also have to give credit to the midfielders for tracking back and helping out. The likes of Michael Brown and Mark Pembridge have both been solid cover for the defense the last two matches. I really like Brown.
