[BestOfBrede]

The Ha's will still get relegated and we will assist this with a home victory over them - so, peace to all men - it's CHRISTMAS !! ( nearly)

Nothing new, those saying Jol out need a reality check quick.

Exactly!

Jol got this badly wrong today, berba needs a kick up the you know where, richardson was hopeless and stayed on too long. the second change should have been kaka not dejagah, in fact kaka should have started. one poor game shouldn't mean you are seen instantly dropped. The pace was too slow and we go backwards to often, this is all the managers fault. i am not calling for his head, far from it but he does need to wake up!

I 100% agree that Kaca should have started, poor call from Jol.

I don't buy that. He's an impact sub. He's rarely put in a decent full game and exposes the defence. Having said that, Richardson was woeful, and I would have put Kaca on at half time. But the injury to Riether also hurt us, and maybe delayed the intended substitutions. Petric for Rodallega made sense - Hill had Rodallega in his pocket all match.  SHame Diarra wasn't on the bench, because I would have pulled Baird and put him on.

thats 9 games in a row of average to poor performances. Even our only win against Newcastle we were playing against a side that is playing poorer than us, and we beat them at home. Chelsea draw was also against a side that was on the skids.

We are a terrible side right now. Those of you who are one-off'ing this loss as 'isolated' or down to this player or that player, or this injury or that injury are not taking in the whole. We are not good side, nor are we a top half side.

I don't agree that kaka particularly exposes the defence but key thing is he takes the game to the opposition, you have to give their defence stuff to do not just let them attack you all the time.

Do we continue with sidwell and diarra/baid in the centre and hope to grind out a few results or give Kasami a run in the team to see what he can do?
Kasmi for me, I dont expect miracles but if he is worth being in the squad its time to give him some game time.

[craig10]

why when Richardson plays does Riise RARELY overlap???? yet Richardson is more defensive than KACA.... however when Kaca plays infront of Risse he is always on the over lap

[RoyTund]

Remember that side we had out at arsenal?  where are you!

It's a team that after numerous Managers and staff changes is a work in progress and not doing too badly considering.

.... an' anuvver fing.....   its supposed to be the end of the world next week.  We could have at least finished this existence with a win.

Said this weeks ago, we lack direction and a spine

That was truly awful

Because Richardson seems incapable of passing the ball forward. Did you see Berbatov bite his head off at least 3 times for not passing it to him in an advanced position.
Richardson seems to be a left footed player who wants to play it inside all the time and never down the line. Hence Riise thinks sod that whats the point.
I really really do not understand what he brings to the squad let alone starting. Is he really going to push Riise for a place. I have Richardson about 4th in line for the wide left starting position.

Well he certainly couldn't have done much worse than Richardson, but I suspect that he'll disappoint as well if played too early for too long.  I think the real problem is the dependence on Sidwell and Baird. Sidwell was constantly having to retrieve Baird's mistakes. There's no creativity there, and today there was no defensive ability either, Baird being the main culprit.

Good point. But it's Fulhamish to go out with a whimper, not a bang.

[RoyTund]

Its all about the centre midfield

ok, this made me laugh. 

Thank you sir!

Whether or not he should naturally be used as an impact sub is not relevant in this case. The fact of the matter is if it's a choice between Kaca or Richardson, who's come back from injury as well as being in a purple patch, Kaca wins every time.

[ElissonSnygg]

Worst game I've attended. Enough said.
