2nd top scores in League and we are where
we are.
If they scored 6 our USELESS defence would
let in 7..
God I'm depressed..

Horses for courses. Look at Rotherham's form since they appointed a manager who knows this league.

Appointing a new manager isn't a guarantee of improved form.....we should know!!

Mince is right though....another 4 goals in 2 games and we manage a single point - must drive the forwards mad as it certainly drives me mad!

My friend said to me the other day,it must be awful
having a surname like Depressant
I said I can live with it,It's far worse for my Auntie..

Too true.
If we had a decent defence we'd be promoted. Without Ross and Moussa, we'd be bottom.
You came all this way ... and you lost, and you lost.

Appointing a new manager ? Well that depends on the manager. Rotherhams new manager knows English football like the back of his hand, been there and done it, for a long time, a real football man that divides opinion but gets results because of his knowledge and experience. Fulham go abroad and are still waiting for a change of fortune, I wonder why.   .

Our strikers need to understand that they are the first line of our defense.

Our strikers must think "wish we could play a team with a defence like ours every week"

I agree.

Joka still needs time to change the mindset of the whole team.

A few goals against us have a clear cut mistakes from our midfield players.

If we were to analyse more in-depth, some goals might be attributed to mistakes by our attacking players during opposition's set pieces.

I'm afraid that time when the mental aspect can be fixed won't come anytime sooner this season.

I am expecting a huge overhaul of players next season if Khan still have the money and we are not relegated.

That they must work as hard as Nugent at Boro or Vokes and Gray at Burnley to press opposition defenders and mid fielders and so be part of a team unit defending from the front

Our forwards did it for 45 minutes on Tuesday night but the top top strikers do it for 46 games

I read a comment on here the other day saying basically How can Rotheram be better than us when we have better players, but do we i ask, i have seen this type of comment a few times, but why because we are Fulham we assume that our players are better than others teams.

McCormack threw his hands in the air when Burnley got their free header for their first goal - says it all really. No wonder he wants to leave.

Come on most of us will have played in teams and seen players do things and think (Or shout) WTF are you doing. I suspect that's pretty much what our guys do sometimes.

hovewhite

have we got better players than rotheram maybe we haven't with the exception of mousa and ross,im beginning to wonder!!!

And when did he say he wants to leave.

Publicly never, in house....well

Sgt Fulham

Rotherham looked like a Sunday league team both times we played them. They're a bit like the Sunderland of the Championship really. While I dont want to trash them it must be said they were battered by Boro, who hit the post and crossbar multiple times and somehow won. I sometimes find myaelf asking where our luck is!

Time and Time again I've seen McCormack and Dembele look at eachother in disbelief as our defence gift the opposition easy goals. They must hate it!

Re watch the Garbutt foul up at Blackburn for the penalty. I think its Ohara's reaction and its a classic
