I want him to take more risks...

This was a game where we could have taken many more risks - as a team - in the final third.  Though there may have been one or two, trying to find a ball over the top or through to feet would have been welcome. we should have used Rotherham, a team which is not threatening our defense, as a training session to breakdown/break through a parked defense

It is so frustrating to see the ball make its way down the right side, then cycled back and down the left.  The creative player is now judged on whether he can feign a pass to the right back and surprise everyone with a ball to back to the left center.

To be fair, many better teams with much better attacking players also have a hard time breaking down teams that park the bus (or as the cool kids these days call it the "low block").

As has been stated in a Sunday Newspaper.

" The FA Cup Third Round nourishes and sustains the soul - it's the greatest day in Football calendar".

I agree and Fulham FC are in the 4th Round Draw of the FA Cup, the oldest Cup Competition in the world.
Never forget your roots.

Definitely a potential banana skin - but we did what needed to be done against a team intent on not losing, with everyone behind the ball, and are through to the next round.

In a cup competition  the result is what matters, getting through to the next round, and that's what we did.

Fans should be celebrating, not complaining.

Well done Marco Silva and the team.
Fulham for the Cup!
