Fulham v Forest Match thread

[FFC007]

Who's the ref?

[JimmyConway]

Another negative article in today's i newspaper again claiming the club has no interest in our hardcore support, just the new Riverside.

Going on FST notes of meetings in the last year or so ticketing pricing let alone loyalty brushed under the carpet at times there is an element of truth if that is what they are saying.

King is looking really good so far. Hope he has a big season.

That turn and pass on the break. Hate to say it but looked more threatening than ESR again

[Tabby]

Am watching a Spanish stream and the commentator finally realized they've been calling Bassey Sessegnon this entire time.

Men against boys so far....whole team looks sharp and fighting for their places.

[Drewry66]

No surprise with the team they have put out and their general tactics anyway but they have just put 11 men behind the ball. Difficult to find space but great run and finish from Harry a then a great free kick. Brilliant pass from Bassey as well. King looked excellent. Tough as so little space but need more from ESR and Muniz.

Defensively, we've had some poor moments, with Awoniyi in particular causing us some problems. Generally speaking, we were okay defensively though.

Offensively, we kept the ball really well and got in to dangerous areas with ease. Two great goals from Wilson too. Towards the end of thw half, our passing got really sloppy.

It has to be said that Forest played with none of their starters, and their lineup included a few youth players. I expect them to be much better in the second half.

[Tabby]

It is essentially Fulham v Awiyoni (Andersen having real trouble with that bout).

Muniz was very quiet. Will be interesting to see how we set up second half.

Standouts were Wilson, Bassey and King.

[Jules]

Very strong half. Harry Wilson 2 very good goals. We are well on top but the Forest team are mostly kids. They will be putting several first teamers on at half time. Will be a good run out anyway. It is a very warm evening for the players.

Forest fans in the comments cussing out their depth and recruitment team I see 👀

Yeh we got more first teamers in there than them by some margin

Expect to see a bit of a change in their quality second half.

[H4usuallysitting]

We look very sharp

Do they have many injuries, or is our squad that much better? Because we could put a completely different eleven in the first half and it would be an 11 I'd expect to be competitive against relegation threatened sides, unlike Forest's second 11 that looks really weak.

[onecupsoon]

8 changes, all but Leno, Sess & Muniz

Good decision. If Lecomte came a bit earlier, Robinson didn't have a surgery and Raul was available, I'm sure they would have been swapped too.

No idea but according twitter reply section, their fans all seem concerned about major lack of depth

[Tabby]

           Leno
Castagne-Diop-Cuenca-Sess
        Lukic-Reed
          Pereira
   Traore          Iwobi
            Muniz

[SerbianLad]

Superb from Muniz there. Shame we didn't score.

[SerbianLad]

Castagne looks sloppy, but understandably so, considering his recent surgery.

[Coastwalker]

3-0 easy Peasy.
