Man United v Fulham

We need a Fulhamish result. Now is the time

 

Just hoping to see the players respond to being embarrassed. It's time to appeal to professional pride. ManUre is flying high and will look to step on our throats from the get go. Only way I see us getting any kind of result is Mark standing on head, and when given the couple chances we bury it past their weak link De Gea in goal.

 

Utd as pointed out will be seeing this as a way to boost their GD to catch up to City. Not to mention not drop any more points. Had Chelsea not gave up the lead I would have thought we have a chance. I hate to be negative, but I fear they score 4-5 goals.

 

I'm not looking forward to this thumping.

 

Our form HAS to improve from the last two matches, and I think it will. Will it be enough to beat United at OT? Probably not, but if we catch them flat footed in a game they figure should be an automatic "W." I say we rebound more than they expect and they get complacent enought for a 1-1 draw.

 

After the last two matches, I can't see anything but a loss. And probably an ugly one at that. Here's hoping the boys show more fight and we pull a Fulhamish result.

 

Ugh, I really need to plan ahead and take a vacation day on these Monday matches. Won't be able to watch it live but will be recording. As usual, will just have to avoid all social media and soccer sites until I get home.

Looking at the past two matches, I'm really not optimistic but then again this is Fulham so you really never know what to expect.

 

You got better will power than me Mister F, I won't be home until at least halftime, but I 'have' to know the score before subjecting myself to the taped version. It's been over 187 minutes since the ball has found the back of the net, so hopefully there is a goal scored today from the boys in white.

 

Oy...

 

wow, Frei gets the start!

 

We played better than I thought we would. The goal was soft (with an error by JAR). Other than that, I thought our back line did pretty well. The Aussie chipped in with a couple huge saves.

As for the penalty appeal, while it probably should have been given, I don't like the fact that Danny slowed to invite the contact. If he keeps going and then Scholes comes in, we for sure get the call. But since he was asking for it, he didn't get it.

And Bryan Ruiz is worthless.

 

Frustrating, but our best performance in the last 3 games. But in those last 3 games, not a single goal. I don't know why Murphy didn't get the start, but he tried his best to take the game in his hands at the end. Thats what a captain does. We deserved a point, but we had a ref that wouldn't give us the chance to earn it.

 

The non-penalty makes me want to fight - particularly punching an old red-faced man in the gut. the theater of dreams screws Fulham out of a penalty.

Three in a row, folks. No goals for 270+ minutes. $hit should be hitting the fan about now...

 

Finally saw the penalty. Unreal. Utd at home will always be an up hill fight.
