Fulham Post Match Thread

He wasn't. In the stream I watched, Gary Nev clearly said he wasn't. Tight call but he wasn't off

I saw the game? In my opinion, considering the linesman is that .2 of a second delayed, he was definitely always going to be called offside. Just my 2 cents worth.

[Mostar]

We are cursed. There is no other explanation.

This was honestly one of our BETTER performances of the season, especially the first half.

We have hit the post/woodwork more times than we've scored goals this season it feels.

Ref= massive ******.

I disagree. In the first half we had more ball control but goal scoring chances were evenly split.

Except the 5 minute total attack in the second half between 55-60 minute we didn't play nearly good as we did in the past.

We need a clinical finisher and we better go and buy one in January or this season will slip away.

Suarez wasn't offside. I might be proved wrong in the post match, but when I saw it in the match and the replays they showed on my coverage - he was ONside.

[Zapater]

That was depressing. Take the result away I thought we played quite well actually. I'm trying to look at the positives. The referee's second half showing ruined us, but regardless we only have ourselves to blame Reina dropped a regulation save in front of a striker which ultimately was the difference. I don't get having a go at Johnson, sure his defending in the piece wasn't fantastic, but it's not like he got taken apart, the player just gave himself some space on the side and whipped in a quick shot, perhaps he should've blocked it, but it was far from Konchesky-esque. The blame has to go with Reina for this one. One would expect any keeper, especially one of Reina's quality to snap that up, or at very least push it to the side, rather than right by the oppositions feet. Really disappointing, we weren't clinical, the ref was a cunt and we made a disastrous mistake.

I get annoyed by the way Adam overcomplicates situations where he could easily play a simple pass or a through ball but finds it necessary to hold onto the ball in until the last possible second. In the penalty shout, he should have played the ball far earlier. Suarez, Bellamy and Carroll were in good position. He chose to hold onto the ball far too long and it cost us.

I hate to say it, because he played well and is one of my favourite players but Bellamy let us down today in key areas. It was an easy chance when Johnson (yes, public enemy number 1) thread him through with a great through ball but Bellamy hooked his shot when he had a lot of time. His crossing/passing which could have proved to be a key ball were lacking in quality. Not having a go, just saying if he was a little bit better in important phases it could've resulted in us taking the lead.

The red card by the ref was ridiculous, makes me not want to watch football any more. It gets me down. It's all getting out of hand.

He wasn't. In the stream I watched, Gary Nev clearly said he wasn't. Tight call but he wasn't off

**** Gary Neville

You watch the replay & tell me wasnt at least 2yards offside

Now stop arguing shut the **** up & accept he was

[Shanks]

Totally Kenny's fault.

Why oh ****ing why Carroll was playing?

Be ****ed if I know what Maxi has to do to be a regular in that team.

Ref was wank

Unbelievable. Never a sending off.

Time to cut our loses on Carroll in jan and buy a goal scorer.

Officials where ****ing terrible all round

I thought Adam had a decent game.

Well said Lads..

[JohnDoe]

I disagree.

Except the 5 minute total attack in the second half between 55-60 minute we didn't play nearly good as we did in the past.

We need a clinical finisher and we better go and do that in January or this season will slip away.

This game ends in a routine 3-0 win with a semi competent ref.

[marcus50bucks]

Bellamy and even Suarez didn't do much better, if at all, then Carroll today. People picking on their favourite whipping boy as per usual.

Downing comes on creates a good spark and doesn't get no credit either.

Game was thrown away by either a corrupt/****e ref and some horrid defending & poor keeping. That's the bottom line.

The guys not bringing anything to the table and the excuses for him by Liverpool fans are really wearing thin. It's the same old thing with Carroll, he win the odd flick on, holds the ball up now and again but ultimately he's not a threat on goal and it's killing us. He's always 5 seconds behind play, his link up play is poor, poor movement, lacks game intelligence, poor first touch. It's getting beyond the joke. I think it's clear as daylight that we need a new striker in the Jan window and that Carroll just doesn't suit our style no matter how much people try and dress it up. We need to cut our losses.

[Rabiosa]

If you're going to blame anyone, blame Kenny

[sean_lfc]

Who gives a flying **** anyway if he was onside offside by a millimetre. It was called offside, we did **** ALL else and we deserved to lose, story of our ****ing season, it's a shambles and that's something we should be concentrating on and not whether it shoulda/woulda/coulda been onside.

[Mostar]

Suarez wasn't offside. I might be proved wrong in the post match, but when I saw it in the match and the replays they showed on my coverage - he was ONside.

If you talking about the goal he scored from what I can see he was miles offside.

[Gibbo]

Suarez was onside.

Suarez was better than Bellamy and Carroll

Carroll wasn't very good, but neither was Bellamy really.

[destinydude]

So easy to blame Carroll. We created enough chances to win it and lost it to ridiculous red card and horroble blunder by Pepe.

There's no blame distribution going around here. All i said was Carrooll wasn't at his best and we could have subbed him much earlier and changed our shape.

Even without the sending off, all we could have gotten out of that game fairly was a draw.

We didn't play well enough as a team to win. Just individuals trying desperately to make things happen. more like hopeful pot shots at goal

**** Gary Neville

Chill out mon....

Wasn't a red card as well but we've got ourselves to blame for losing this game. Can't blame everyone else each time.
