FoF MOTM Fulham 2 v 1 Chelsea and post match thread = Wilson

[love4ffc]

At first, both teams were frequently losing possession, but Chelsea appeared to be the more threatening side. Everything shifted after about 20 minutes with a clear red card. The team put in a strong performance overall, although there were still some moments of poor defending. Raul and Wilson scored excellent goals. It's unfortunate that Wilson's first goal was disallowed, but he remains my Man of the Match.

UP THE FULHAM!

What a match. I loving love Harry Wilson! Everyone played a blinder today including Kevin who I think had his best 45 mins with us so far. Perhaps he should be pairing with Sess as his appearances with Jedi have been pretty fruitless

[Steeeeeeeeeed]

Wilson was given the Sky Player Of The Match, good post match interview just now.

I will give it to him, he did a load of great runs forward too, negating the lack of pace in Raul.
. He has really stepped up as a player this last few months, I think physically he is looking much stronger and fitter to go along with the skill he always had.

Leno was second choice for me for me, he made 2 excellent saves.

We probably gave Chelsea too much of the game considering they were 10 men for most of it, but a terrific result.

Why have you got 1-1 as the score.😄

[Stoneleigh Loyalist]

It's funny how different people see the same match. I thought that it was a very tired slow display from Fulham but the sending off probably decided the match. My heart was in my mouth every time that they got a corner

[Coastwalker]

Wilson.
Word for Berge who I thought had one of his best games for us.

[Jules]

Great performance by the whole team. Harry MoM. Very unlucky with the offside but he stuck away the goal well and he is on fire at the moment. COYW

Big game from Wilson who is in red hot form once again. Doesn't help with his wages demands mind you!

Brilliant from Kevin and Sess too

The subs were too late but when they finally came they made a difference thankfully. Wasnt sure about Sess for Robinson but it turned out to be a genius move.

Would love for that to have been more comfortable than it was but my god, despite AFCON + king weve churned out another brilliant result , granted, massively helped by the red card today 😅

Absolutely love it

Leeds

AFCON boys return.
Then it's

Brighton
United
Everton

Huge opportunity to position ourselves in the race going into February

Totally agree our passing was shocking as well. We take the three points and move on!

[FFC007]

Two points off the champions league...

I can hear that anthem now!

[sunburywhite]

Has to be Harry

How much would he cost if we were looking to buy him?

[FFC007]

Tosin               

[Jonny4]

Wilson for me - the main threat even when he drifts out of the game.

Not a brilliant performance overall, but we ground it out and rallied when Chelsea equalised.

Special shout out to Sessegnon who invigorated us in 2nd half, combined really well with Kevin. Thought Robinson was awful today, passing was woeful and poor header on the goal.

[Deeping_white]

We weren't brilliant but also nullified a multi billion pound team or whatever they paid for that bunch of diving cheats and outside of a 10 min window where we weirdly retreated, I don't think Chelsea really threatened outside of corners. Raul and Wilso will get the headlines but I thought Berge was very good in the middle today

Whoops

I mean obviously the bad points are that we cannot defend corners still but we didn't lose. If a couple months ago you told me we'd go on a six game unbeaten streak winning 14 points in the process while drawing with Liverpool and beating Chelsea I'd have called you a liar.

[bencher]

Are we safe from relegation yet?

[SimonDaviesEnjoyer]

Wilson for drawing the red and an outrageous touch before burying the second.

The boys looked knackered and yet managed to beat a Chelsea team loaded with expensive talent.

Cracking result.

[love4ffc]

I think credit is also due to Marco for changing the system at halftime from a 5 at the back to a more attacking 4 at the back.  Bringing on Kevin and taking off Cuenca, who was on a yellow, was a good decision.

Leno is a good shout as well, also caused them problems with his route 1.
