Fulham 1-0 Forest Monday 22/12

[First State]

Not the best performance, but a win is win.

Pretty abysmal. 3 points make the Brussel sprouts taste good.  But the idea Marco is a top 4 manager, do me a favour.

It's been a hard watch but the three points are welcome. There's no lack of effort and some of our play is beautiful to watch, but we have no cutting edge. We are generally lightweight up front.

A tough watch and not a vintage performance but a huge win without 3 at Afcon and a functioning striker.

[The Old Count]

Wow! The boys managed to grind that one out. Not pretty but well deserved against an in form Forest.

Felt we had the better chances and deserved to win

Raul missed two headers you'd hope he'd hit

JKA again showing he deserves more than 5minutes, we might actually finish off games earlier

For all their huff and puff,Forest didn't look like scoring.

It's been a hard watch but the three points are welcome. There's no lack of effort and some of our play is beautiful to watch, but we have no cutting edge. We are generally lightweight up front,and unable to hold up the ball which means the defence is put under pressure and gradually get more and more desperate.

Guys been missing our main striker all season, and 2 of our best attacker's away in AFCON. Credit where due we ground out points despite that tonight. TC change also worked very well this week which most of us questioned.

His decision to play Raul into the ground instead of give the clearly capable JKA minutes frustrated me but he's continuously had Fulham punching above it's traditional weight for years now. Who knows how he'd do with an endless budget etc.

I nearly forgot - TC made a big difference  when he came on. Well done old fella!

Marco just echoed that!

Fair enough. But home team, 1 up, second half and we didn't get into the oppo penalty box for 40 mins. It worked but, this team is better than that.
