Train wreck

We are sincerely horrible to watch. Don't know where we will get another win this season. I haven't been this forlorn in so long. Depressing.
Someone once asked me, "Why Fulham?".
My response, "Well, lad, you just haven't seen the light yet"

Lots will say "what did you expect, it's man united"..... ?
For one I would have thought we could have at least played for a point against a Man U with a poor run of form.
United are now 6th Bla Bla Bla - Arsenal are on reasonable form, currently 4th , yet Huddersfield were holding them to nil nil until very late!!

Well the first half was a train wreck. But dare I say poor tactics from the manager. Second half much better in spots. Better tactics from the manager. I don't like to blame referees but he spoilt the game. The penalty for us was very debatable. Considering Kamara was involved and it is claimed he dives I think the ref would have been a little more careful. But then the ref makes up for it with a poor sending off for a fair tackle.

However we were awful  for much of the game.
The above IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT. It is an opinion.

We may yet hear the horse talk.

I can stand my own despair but not others hope

Over reaction.
You mean you were pleased with that tripe dished up today?

The penalty was a penalty.  Kamara is about to shoot and gets taken out.  Yes some of the ball was touched, but both legs were taken as well, definite foul.  By rights, as Kamara was one on one, six yards out, he was denied a clear goal scoring opportunity, should have been red card.
We were pretty poor and didn't deserve anything from the game, but the ref not carding the Utd player for cleaning out the striker in front of goal and then carding Anguissa for an innocuous challenge near the halfway line, well it's worth a grumble.

And quite right there should be.
Money wasted on players not fit for the shirt.

Herrera got the ball, but also the back leg of kamara first, taking him out in the penalty area - definitely not a dive. I think it was a penalty, but Anguissa should not have been sent off. Rashford's acrobatic fall probably triggered the referee into thinking it was a worse tackle than it was

Dare I ask how it's an overreaction? We have 8 points from a potential 50 points or so. This season is beyond rapprochement. If you can somehow justify the shambolic nature of this team, please tell me how you've managed it, I'd like to try the same.

Christ...How much have we spent on garbage in the last 3 seasons on rubbish from abroad.

Because our season is not over by any means, we are not relegated yet.

You are correct, we may not be relegated yet, but all signs and statistics point to it. Yes, we can get again grab a "Great Escape", but it doesn't bode well with performances AND results like that. This is no overreaction, it's the culmination of a 2-2-11 season.

You mean 2-3-11, we have 9 points not 8 surprising as it might seem!

We are almost relegated. 9 out of 48 points. To stay up we need at least 35 points.

Not capable of picking away points. Only two wins at home. Who do we attract in January being rock bottom?

West Ham at home is to be or not to be game. Fail to win, and we need miracle to stay up. Not say impossible, but improbable.

Seri and Anguissa are ever so good and well worth 50 million, how lucky we are to have them!

Woolly Mammoth

We have a soft underbelly, and we are relegation fodder. We were a poor second today with no heart beat and very little resilience, too many players like Vieto. Schurrie, Anguissa and Seri don't fancy it or are just not equipped to play in this League.
Weak mentality and gutless.

it kind of is. We certainly we will another game probably next week. Oh and we have 9 points

I do tend to agree that there is an element of over reaction but it is understandable.  As I said on another thread, we can't defend, can't play away and don't beat the top clubs. What else but a routine defeat was ever going to happen? But of course we all live in hope!
As to the comments about Seri and Zambo, I have to say that despite Seri showing the odd spark neither is what we need and neither would find a place in any other Premier team starting 11 that I can think of. Nuff said.
