Fulham 0-3 Brentford (H) - 19 August

[jayffc]

I'm worried but I won't be blaming the ref today. Morrison just said 'even though it probably wasn't a pen or a sending off, Brentford would probably have won this game anyway and have been the much better team'. Wasn't able to go today so haven't watched but sounds like we're getting what we deserve.

We aren't

We lost from a penalty that wasn't a penalty and Diop giving them a complete gift.

We don't deserve a win but a 0-0 draw would have been a fair result it's Not like they've created much off their own back either.

We were brighter early in Second half and still had time to make adjustments with subs but the red card killed it and now we're here. On the end of a 3-0 hammering

A joke

Refs First game and he can get lost back to the championship far as I'm concerned

I think it's over now... 

It was from the kick off when the starting 11 was announced, I blame Marco!!

[Caedal]

I'm so glad we've got some easy fixtures coming up to steady the ship.... Oh wait

[Black, White and Fred]

This could get embarrassing now

[ron]

Our back line stood, watched and admired that third goal

[Pluto]

Wow embarrassing

[LittleErn]

Looking for positives, I can only be thankful this is early in the season and gives Marco's call for new blood even more of an urgency. We're running out of time but the window is still open.

This just highlights how little creativity we have up front. We absolutely need a Mitro-esque striker or else completely change our style of play.

I second this motion, I'll even chip in for his taxi fare, cause with the way he's been seeing things, he shouldnt be anywhere near a motor vehicle!

I've managed to catch glimpses of the match but not been overly impressed. Where im at, they have sky sports on and that was Morrisons assessment. He suggested the pen and sending off weren't justified but as mentioned, said we weren't the better side. Looking at the stats alone, as I'll watch the game back later, but I reckon I'll find it hard to disagree with him. We're losing 3 nil at home to local rivals less their best player, with a poor xg rating....maybe I'll agree but finding it hard to believe.

Don't understand all the moaning about the team looking poor. We are missing our two best players. What's on the pitch is a collection of journeymen (sans Leno). Reasonably solid but no exceptional skills. Take away Diop's bonehead pass and a dodgy penalty call and we are even. Course, if frogs had wings they wouldn't bump their arses.

Which 2 best players are you referring to?

Joao & Mitro.

[Lazybones]

One goal we gave them, one goal the ref gave them, but the third they scored all by themselves.

1-0 would be a fair result. They were the better team. 

We are missing a big, physical presence up front. Just not generating shots on target.  :-(

[Rj Fulham]

Playing Muniz ahead of Vini? I assume at this stage its just to give the lad a run

[davew]

Thank God that is over!!!!

[Caedal]

Zero positives from that

[ron]

An interesting game .....I can't take my eyes on it.....

[Willham]

I think we definitely need a bit more quality. Stats did say we over performed last year and we've already seen how important Leon's saves are against Everton.

Palhinha and Reed back in midfield is needed and someone more creative.

[davew]

Well we did have 1 shot on target, not all bad news!

Joao & Mitro.

Well, Mitro is no longer a Fulham player and Palhinha will most likely be suspended (and possibly injured) for quite a few games this season...

If we can't play better football than this without Palhinha (and Mitro...) we will 100% be relegated. Very poor game. Everton was even worse, just a fluke win.

[Nero]

Well assuming Bassey is starting the next game, like Ream but I think he's more or a threat from set pieces and we might need them to score
