Take a bow frogman for predicting a 3-0 Fulham win! Only saw the highlights but how good was Dempsey yesterday? Not just the goals but he seemed to be at the heart of all our attacking play. Cottager58 said Kelly had a good game at Bolton - he's had some stick but in recent weeks has put in some good performances. Our most improved player this season?
Kelly was very good last week, not as noticeable this week but he linked up very well with Duff, who has before stated that he works better on the right with Duff rather than any other player. I'd probably still go with Dembele as our most improved player though, not saying he was poor last season but this season he has stepped up considerably. I hope Ruiz can do the same next year.
Can you predict us to lose more often? You could be our own personal Lawro, guarenteeing victory by consistently tipping defeat!
It still irritates me that every time we win away from home (not often I know) the pundits always refer to it as always being our 'only third away win this season' credit where credit is due fellas. How many away wins does it take to remove this 'only' tag we seem to have?
I have to agree with you Bandit, but I think that this label has been applied to us for a long time, but has now got a bit unfair. There have been matches where we could have got more. With back-to-back trips to Merseyside, I'm not expecting too much.
If we can just win away our league position would improve considerably- on home form we are 7th (p. 16 ¦ +8 goals ¦ 28 points), on away we are 17th (pl. 16 ¦ -8 goals ¦ 14 points).
I'm not sure it's due to our away form. I remember in the season we finished 7th, our away form was as usual terrible but our home form was almost the best in the league. This season we have dropped silly points at home (Blackburn, Everton, Tottenham, Villa) so therefore have found ourselves lower down the table. If we can keep our home form as good as the top six then we too can be a top six side regardless of our away form, just as long as we pick up an odd win here and there.
