Match thread vs. Swansea - stockdale starts, as do briggs, and frei

[Mr Fulham]

Frei's body language is really impressive for a 19-year old. He really wants to make things happen, wants every ball in this difficult situation.

It's his first Fulham match since 2011 and he's already the scapegoat. HIS FIRST.

"In modern usage a scapegoat is an individual, group, or country singled out for unmerited negative treatment or blame.[1] A whipping boy or "fall guy" is a form of scapegoat."


So, basically, the singling out of errors was not unmerited as he was mainly responsible for the 2nd, and partly responsible for the first. Thus, not a scapegoat.

He was at fault for them both!

ffs, Schwarzer made hundreds of those mistake during this season and he wasn't punished. It's unlucky. He's nervous, eager to impress, possibly doing a little too much. Can't blame him really.

I still think Stockdale should be playing ahead of Scwarzer. But you have to admit that it was an error.

[RoyTund]

We didn't deserve that.  

GOAL.  Had to score straight away and now we can turn it around.

We didnt deserve that? I hope your referring to the goal we conceded? We're all over them at the moment, look far stronger this half

COYW's!!!!

Obviously.  It was before the Goal comment

[SaltfordWhite]

I'm not saying he hasn't, all I am saying is that he has made mistakes leading to both goals.  Calm down, dear.

[Fulham_Surrey]

wow, Berba and Ruiz, but their goalie is playing like a beast. We barely scored and how many saves he pulled.

yes, he is the one guy who has given his all during the match

[fulhamaustin]

At least we are giving it a go for the first time in a few games.

[St Eve]

Frei made that

[OxfordWhite]

Dejagah is not my cup of tea at all.

[RidgeRider]

where was the foul against Frei, he was shoved down from behind?

Apologies then :)

Some interesting scores today too btw

Wow, that was close to a 3rd....

[michaelread]

stockdale flapping?! whodathunkit! (me)

[fulhamaustin]

Corr Stockdale is nervous ain't he

[Mr Fulham]

But you have to admit that it was an error.

I do. Just saying that Schwarzer also made numerous errors during the course of the season.

[RoyTund]

Reither player of the season thus far IMO

[Lighthouse]

Get Berbatov off for goodness sake.

[rusty shackleford]

jesus christ god damn their keeper

[JustOverTheRiver]

Frei caught that beautifully

[OxfordWhite]

Frei is better than Dejagah imo. No reason Dejagah should ever play ahead of him.
