Title: 7 Points from a Possible 18
Post by: 3 Cherries on October 02, 2021, 01:58:12 PM
What is Silva doing?

And a rant - Gazza: never catches the ball and lacks command of his area

Disgrace
Silva deserves some serious  criticism
Awful team selection and this golakeeper is a joke ...

Tired of this team, and tired of Fulham in general. Our last enjoyable season was 17/18 under Slav.

Most will disagree but I don't see how Silva can turn this mediocrity around

We need Fabio Carvalho back big time.

Hopefully this international break is the reset we need. Last one completely took the wind out our sails. This one couldn't come quick enough

Let's all relax a moment. We're 11 games into a 46 game season. Silva and the boys will turn it around. Today was pathetic, abysmal, disgraceful, *add further insults*, but this was really the only BAD game we've played, Blackpool and Reading were lucky. International break came at a good time.

He can and we'll be a playoff side. But he'll turn it around every few results and we'll have more days like this. It's the very nature of us as a club. So close yet so far. Too inconsistent.

The first goal was by way of the keeper's stupid ball out but what was Onomah doing and the the penalty was a blatant dive an then we were gone. Why was Seri left out?   :031: :doh:

It's noticeable this season how exposed we are by frequently conceding possession in dangerous positions. Even Reed who I rate highly is a culprit.

That first goal has been waiting to happen all season and with our close passing near our own goal there will be one or two more before the end of the season.

Haven't seen any of today's game and not sure I want to, but Gazza did the same thing on Wednesday where he passed the ball to Tim who was closely marked by Swansea players.  Got away with it then but from the sound of it not so today.

We don't want to peak too early in the season.

We are not improving by the game though and the summer signings who should have settled by now are not looking very good. The midfield is not formed and is generally outplayed. A quarter of the way through the season and we are not looking like promotion candidates.

We expected a lot better.

Can't disagree sadly

Well I would say we're 2 points from that second place spot, with 11 games played.

The last two times we got promoted we did it from the back of the pack. I don't particularly care how we go up as long as we go up, and I'm still confident we'll do so.

Can anyone really say once we have a fully fit team/squad we'll get blown away like that? Tete and Fabio Cav are really important to us, and Reed has only really just come back. I'm still positive on our outlook, we just need to find some consistency and maybe add another name in January.

We have got to tighten up at the back and in the middle of midfield. Straightforward passes today cut through us far too easily. They looked faster than us, we need to build that solid spine. Starts with getting Rodak and Tosin back in. I'd love us to turn this around and push for automatics but we look a way off at the moment. I really don't want us to sneak up again and get trounced every week in the prem. Therefore that solid, nasty streak has to be built. Examples being Burnley and Brighton who give very little away and don't play suicidal passes to each other in their 18 yard box. We look too soft and weak at the moment when things go against us we fall apart.

....particularly on a sodden pitch where the ball was liable to slow up and be intercepted.
