Liverpool V. Fulham

God help us.

 

Also wanted to add my plea to Coleman:

"Please Cookie, do the right thing here. Forget about your favoritism for one match and sit those who have underperformed. This is about Fulham at present, not about Fulham last season."

 

A draw would be awesome, but I hate to report I see another 3-1 loss (4-1 if Knight starts). Liverpool losing today doesn't help. Like ManU when we played them recently, you hate to face a top team on the road that is coming off a loss.

 

I'm no holding my breath, but would be nice to get a point out of it. The only saving grace is that Liverpool couldnt his a cows arse with a banjo at the moment.

As for CC shaking up the team (as hinted in his recent comments) I hope we got back to 4-5-1 for away games and pack the midfield, 90% of games are won or lost on the midfield so thats were he needs to look (yes the other 10% are down to Zat Knight).

My team to get at least a point is

Warner (Niemi not fit)
Volz Goma Boca Bridge
Steed Bouba Pembo Christanval Boa
Mcbride

Subs: Crossley, Liam, Radz, John, Helguson

 

Re: RE: Liverpool V. Fulham

I believe Bouba won't be available for this match thus, you put Radz in there...

As for the 4-5-1...I might have to agree with that formation although I think John is more of a player for that. Can't remember a match where Brian thrived by being the only one up front.

To get ANYTHING out of this match would be a huge bonus.

 

RE: Re: RE: Liverpool V. Fulham

Can you say, "No points in March"? I knew that you could!

If I saw some more fight/desire/whatever, I could be optimistic. Watching Sunderland matches recently, I have no idea why they are at the bottom and we are out of the relegation zone. At least they seem to have a semblence of desire.

I'd go for 4-5-1 with John. I don't like breaking up The Twins and like to see them play together in a 4-4-2. Without Papa in there (and probably WITH Bambi-on-Ice), could we just play a 5-5-0 and hope for a scoreless match?

:3d crying:

 

Re: RE: Liverpool V. Fulham

I'm going to have to second this to a "T". On a side note I'm getting pretty tired of being in a room of friends and FFC comes on fox soccer channel then they all look at me with this "I'm sorry" face. I pray for just one point from this game in our current form.

 

16 min in the pain begins. COYW


Edit: This is me shutting my mouth.

 

5-1

Sick of the excuses. If Cookie thinks his management team is just fine and will quit if any of them are asked to leave, well then, don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya. See ya. Now let's go get a winner to skipper the team in their cool, new kits.

 

RE: 5-1

They sounded great early and simply fell apart.

This is getting ugly and I'm plain sick of Zat Knight.

 

RE: 5-1

When I left work the score was 2-1. Wow 5-1. That is really hard to swallow.

 

RE: 5-1

Well it was 3-1 until the 89th minute...and then we just threw it away knowing we would lose.

This comes down to Coleman and he's losing the players....

 

RE: 5-1

Ok, so I finally got to see some of the match and it wasn't as bad as I thought, although, our defense was atrocious...again...Zat Knight...is....worthless.

 

Were absolute rubbish and are looking like a team that is going down. Birmingham are 8 points from us and not only that have not 1, but 2 damn games in hand. Also we play Chelscum next which we will probably lose even if Chelscum play a 2nd string team because of the FA Cup. Time for big changes. No more damn excuses about this or that time for Coleman to go. we are not just getting beat, but teams are absolutley destroying the team. I mean we have let in a total of 12 goals in 3 games. 12 GOALS!!!!! That is embarrsing. The worst part about this is the fact that Warner has had 3 good games. That is pathetic. We are the worst away team in the football leagues not just the Premiership. we are probably the worst away team in all of European top flight football. Coleman keeps playing Knight and doesnt try Christanval in defense. Why?He was only world class when he was healthy for Barca and Monaco. He drops Boca even though most of the goals are from Zat Knight mistakes. He starts Pembridge THE VERY FIRST GAME HES FIT FOR. Pembridge is like 35 and hasnt played all season. What is Coleman smoking? Also why did Coleman choose to keep Knight in the game after 2 HAMSTRING injuries? Coleman surely must have got his manager badge because he paid someone because a good manager wouldnt be making this obvious mistakes.

 

Enough is enough

Ok, enough is enough.
In the end the organization and the motivation of the team is down to the manager. How often do we start start strong and then fade away and lose and recently lose badly. Poor away form is not due to an act of the gods, the team has a say in this. We are the ONLY team in all the leagues to have the honor of so many losses away from home.
Yet, what I read by the manager is idignation and ranting about the players, this might hold true once or twice but not for the whole season, its his job to do something about all this.
Its all very frustrating.

 

Also there cant be any excuses about us not being able to find a manager. There will be at least 3 good club managers available in the summer Martin O'Neill,Alex Mcleish, and Sven Goran Eriksson. Not only that, but in the Championship there are some good managers as well. Sven might be just ok for England, but in club football he was great with I think Lazio.

 

Cookie has to go.
