Bassey WTF

[SimonDaviesEnjoyer]

I'm starting to think we also need some defensive upgrades in the centre. Too slow.

[Caedal]

Absolutely terrible defending

[Twig]

What the hell is it with our defence. Why did we only have a back three then? Dreadful, absolutely terrible defence.

[Grassy Noel]

They are there for the taking BUT!

We are so sloppy and need to keep the bloody ball better or they will be back in the game!

They aleady are

Looks like Bassey has the shakes again. Time for Cuenca?

He's literally about to disappear for a month....

He is demob happy then

[AnOldBrownie]

Bassey is not a good CB.  Not at all.

In the transfer window I wouldn't have a problem with Fulham spending 25 mil on a starting caliber CB to replace Bassey.   And no, I don't think Cuenca is him.

[SP]

Diop anybody?

[SerbianLad]

We didn't get near enough to any of their players in the buildup or for the ending. Terrible defending all around.

I still don't understand the hate for Parker... he may have been poor for us in the premier league and maybe a bit of a boring manager, but my god, the hate seems so over the top

I kinda agree.   Once he was gone I didn't have any ill will towards him.   I also didn't consider him to be a bad manager.   I just wanted better.

I think it was the nature of his departure that upset a lot of us, myself included. I've long since moved on though and couldn't care less about him now.

I might be forgetting. But I didn't think there was anything in it? Thought it was just a quiet departure.

[Deeping_white]

Since Stuart Grey left, we've been very soft defensively. Not sure what we work on in the week but the defensive patterns of play, particularly from the CB's is quite poor too often

[Coastwalker]

Fantastic..is this 75 years coming up..ffs

[St Eve]

Stupid. Now we have let them back in the game

The way he went about wanting to leave us showed his lack of class and his football was awful.

[Rj Fulham]

Bloody horrible defending-- Cuenca must wonder why he cant get a run in the side when he sees stuff like that.

[Twig]

We simply have to give Cuenca a run, he's looked like a decent prospect but has had such limited opportunity.

[hopper]

I'm so sick and tired of our defence. This game felt like they were there for the taking, but that was such a simple goal.

[demeant0r]

This defence is why we rarely win games, you are guaranteed to have to score at least two goals to win most matches.

He manufactured himself a move yet still claimed compensation for termination of his contract.

I don't remember all that, but will admit I'd switched off a little in those few years so I believe you.

I know Robinson's been off for a while,  but he's way off the pace. Goal was down to him, 100%
