Title: Overrated
Post by: PaulJ123 on May 11, 2018, 09:46:20 PM
Sick of everyone saying how good we are and we're the team no one wanted.

All well and good playing football that gets you 75% possession every week but we have to adapt against different teams, especially in games like this.

The blame has to be laid at Slav's door in my opinion. We aren't good enough or more importantly smart enough to go up now there's pressure on us (unlike the majority of that unbeaten run). Here's to next season

We could have 99% possession but it means love all. They were under real pressure only twice. Once from MacDonalds shot and once when Ayite should have put it in after the long ball.

Maybe we will beat them but that doesn't change the fact that we aren't good enough

Pathetic for telling it how it is? We aren't good enough. I'm not saying we won't go through or even go up but we don't deserve too at the moment

We went 23 games unbeaten, including beating Derby and teams a lot better than them. We weren't great but 80% of that game was Derby parking the bus, one crap result doesn't not make us good enough, go and have a lie down and put some rational thought to it

Not sure how people can disagree really. I'll wait for the posts Monday about how we'll rebuild and be stronger next season...

We played exactly the same against Reading, both legs. Tell me this. Why does every team, Birmingham included, up their game when it really matters, but we don't?

If we had countless chances and missed, yes, you'd be right but we didn't. We didn't even look like scoring.

I'm not saying we won't go up but with recent showings it's very unlikely

Well KMac hitting the bar looked a bit like an attempt at scoring.

We had at least two clear cut chances, and Cairney's late strike was another. We did create chances but struggled to break down a team playing five at the back. The one problem we will always have is that as a smaller built passing team, parking the bus and playing counter attack or going for a high press is the default counter.

Look how ****** Derby were for the second half, they've got a days rest and then have to travel to London and do that for another 90 minutes. They've got the older squad and they've got to defend for their lives for 90 mins and I honestly think we're going to get loads of chances on Monday, we just need to take an early one and they'll crap their pants, they're a bigger bunch of bottlejobs than we allegedly are.

We need to play a near perfect game on Monday, an early goal from us will work wonders, but if we continue to play walking football, it may end up as a goalless draw, and Derby running round in triumph, like Reading did last year.
Jok has to make difficult decisions about who to start on Monday. But surely he has to consider Kamara and Kalas and Kebano. 
Because Derby will set their stall out expecting the usual Fulham system of play, and Jok may need to outwit them somehow, and increase the tempo, because we wasted far too much of our precious time chasing the game by playing that dreaded walking football that nobody else bothers to play because it's self defeating.

You make some excellent points and observations, l just hope you are proved right.
Because Fulham have it all to do. Having said that, we have to score first on Monday, as goals change games.

Some of our players look drained,lack of speed of thought wise and not short,as fit as they are.
There flesh and blood and the way we play after a long slog it's understandable.keep the faith.
BELIEVE FULHAM and carry on supporting.

We won't be beating Derby at home next Monday. If I'm wrong, I'll glad meet you, and buy you a couple of beers.

After watching us at Birmingham, and then tonight, it's clear as day, a few players heads have gone, and some have thiers else where, not in the playoffs.

derby hardly created a hatful of chances , it was a vey tight game . They had 1 attempt on goal in the first half , we hit the bar in the second. A draw would definitely have been the fair result , we just have to make sure we take our chance on monday . we were hardly outplayed
