Well a very poor performance against a poor Fulham side. Lallana clearly played his one decent game of the season in our last home game. The entire side seemed to think they only had to turn up to get 3 points. We have a few games against teams fighting relegation in our remaining fixtures and if we go into them with the same attitude we had today we are going to drop points.

Although we won I feel a bit down about our performance, luckily I can watch some good comedy in Everton v Chelsea to cheer myself up. Come on Pickford the only T-rex to play in goal in Premier League history.

I don't think it was a bad attitude today, but we didn't make enough use of our possession and get that second goal which would have killed it.
Anyway, crisis averted <ok>

Allisson the main culprit for the goal, that was his ball to claim

I don't think so. I don't think it was closer alisson than vvd.

it even bounced before vvd headed it.

imo vvd totally ****ed it.

especially as keeper can't anticipate Milner hack. vvd needs to clear it.... in other games and most others he's cleared stuff into stand all the time.
 
You mean it was windy? :bandit:

he was so rarely on ball I wondered if he was involved.

for me taa was great up to our goal then he switched off... he was jogging at times.

Robertson was putting the effort in.

mane played ball too quick at times.

salah was drivel.

firmino was average. not sure when he took the knock but he was up and down

lallana faded totally and I was surprised he was on so long.

fabinho was unlucky cos he slipped but he had the sense to not get sent off at least bit he couldn't dominate them like he was.

it just needed 10% more effort early on or at least after goal to get second and that would have been that.
 
He should have claimed it but equally, VVD should have dealt with it too. And prior to all that, Milner put us in danger!

yeah.... I think it's harsh to expect keeper to anticipate Milner hack personally. it was clearly in vvds zone then. he was calling keeper out rather than dealing.
 
The problem today not getting the second when it was their for the taking. we need to get back to being clinical and to keep the number of touches to a minimum.

yes. I agree. move ball faster but not brainlessly.. make runs. be about it.


I mean some balls tossed at salah were at best 20/80. mane play a it often too quick but he also put one on a plate finally for salah... we need more deliberate balls into dangerous areas as it's not precise.

but it was so lax with just guys standing about today.
