Farlz Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Watkins just needs his first league goal and he'll be fine, he's done all the other bits well so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I think Dean will just remind them of their composure in the final third. They have an extra second or two to place their shots and passes. We are carving this Fulham defence open with great success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve had less ball but been much more direct with it and look the better side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 8 hours ago, deeps said: It will come for Ollie. Trez is running his socks off just lacking that killer instinct at times. Deans tactics spot on so far. Fulham can’t be as bad in the 2nd half. Far from over. like he ever had it, he can run all he wants, running should be a given. The dude has virtually no ability on the ball, its shocking to watch. he could have put watkins clean through and he literally passed BEHIND HIM, shocking.

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 2 minutes ago, PieFacE said: Yeah Watkins is tying too hard here. Deano did mention that he is hard on himself. Aside from that. We do look sloppy at times, however, last season, this would still be a nil nil. These are the games we chucked away last season. We just need to get as many points as early as possible, and the momentum will hopefully build into more confidence and composure. ALSO, weaker performers will eventually have played themselves out of the team to make way for the likes of Traore etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villalad21 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Trez has done nothing wrong here Unless Traore has a worldie of a cameo it's for Trez to lose imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted September 28, 2020 Moderator Share Posted September 28, 2020 Two nil up and it could have been more - and we've been poor. Pressing has been absolutely nowhere and our passing is horrendous - which is a pity, because every time we've put three passes together we've looked like scoring. If we don't improve in the second half we might not win this - if we do, we might score six. Cash and Targett need to be careful, I wouldn't be surprised to see a red in this game - Odoi has made fifteen fouls in that first half without a hint of a yellow. I don't think I've ever seen a team have so many opportunities to put crosses into the box and have none of them come off - we absolutely need to close down the crosses. Watkins has won a load of headers that no one has gotten onto, Trez has looked lively, Grealish had a pretty poor half (and scored and had a big hand in a goal and a chance). I'm sure I read Luiz completed 90 odd passes last week, I'd be surprised if it's 10 so far - we just haven't passed it at all. A nice early third goal that lets us relax and play would be nice. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedClaretAndBlue Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Trez tries and tries bless him. Like his pashun but its time for Bertie boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted September 28, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 28, 2020 Can we chill out with the panic on Watkins? He's 135 mins into PL football and he has 2 in 2 in the cup. I'm sure he'll score in the second half! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinRichardsonsMoustache Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Just now, OLDVILLAIN said: targett is going to cost us down the right. I should say so: he plays on our left. Seriously, though, I agree: he has looked sloppy at the back. So important that he’s disciplined if we tuck in our fullbacks and left their wingers have space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodders Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Let's hope Watkins isn't like Davis, all good elsewhere but no finishing. I do back him but this is an ideal game to get off the mark in the premier league. Elsewhere some good breaks, two good goals, Targett is a weak link, and trezeguet is crap. I'd like to see us get it down and control the ball better. It's 2-0 and could easily be 3 or 4. Let's hope we don't rue those misses. It only takes one Fulham goal to make it nervy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I think a good solid performance, odd dodgy passes but all good all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyp Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Very good performance. Grealish has been great. McGinn looks fit and sharp. Watkins - serious appetite for work. Zero ego. He'll be gutted about the chances he's missed but this fella is some upgrade on Wesley. Suitably impressed with Targett. Aggressive in his play in a positive way. Luiz ? He's either feeling the effects of the early knock or completely disinterested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks like he’s forcing it a touch. Peter Withe took nine games to get off the mark. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham were regularly a 75%+ possession team in the championship too so its not unusual to see them boss possession, thankfully they have posed no real threat so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
