    I assume the Fulham starting XI today will effectively
    be the one they field on tuesday (some quick
    homework to be done by manager + coaches methinks) .

    Don't get why he's decided to experiment in such a critical season for us. It cost us the game today and we've not started the season that cohesively, either.
    In the second half, he then switched to the system that worked so well last season and we performed way better. Shock. However, we have got some serious issues at home because in 3 of the last 9 home matches, we've conceded in the opening minute.
    I also don't understand why we become such an emotionally chaotic team whenever we go 1-0 down. We keep overcomplicating basic things and never seem fully in control. Away from home, we don't have these issues. This needs further exploration internally.

    I know it's only 3 games, but I've seen enough to know we won't be challenging for the title. We don't have the stability and structure of last season. Too much unnecessary change. And we don't look as if learned from our mistakes of last season. Just have to hope we get back into the CL.

    Also known as the exact moment the Premier League told Leicester that they'd served their purpose, now they can **** off back to the Championship

    It isn't.

    And it makes the foul in Romero last weekend look even worse! :emoticon-0111-blush

    3 PL games played by Man Utd and they have enjoyed incorrect penalty decisions going their way in all 3 of them.

    Balanced by the foul on Romero not being given.

    Add to that the Bottlers scoring instead of putting the ball out when Fulham had a player down

    Hardly the first time they've done that, as Sheffield United will attest

    Fernandez dived to get the free kick from which Utd got their equaliser and Radford dived to get the penalty.

    But apart from that ....
