    So, yet another cowardly, dogshit, unsuccessful performance...

    Who's surprised?

    It's what he's specialised in for years and we're not good enough defensively to do it.

    Boooooo!

    1-1 FT. Absolutely awful second half, especially from the manager.
    Waited too long to make changes, didn't use all of our subs and made the wrong ones, while we pissed about and threw away another lead.
    Sanchez didn't do himself any favours again and Son had a relatively rare poor game, too. Crap day all round.

    Awful, just awful.

    Yeah I won’t lie, I’m beginning to lose patience now...

    Mourinho has to go.

    Followed swiftly by the bald gentleman who has taken this club back to approximately where it was under Jaques Santini.

    Am genuinrly puzzled by anyone who thinks JM is the man to take us forward.

    No ****ing way would I spend £150 on tickets for meand my daughters to watch this dross.
    His is the complete opposite of Danny Blanchflowers philosophy.

    Utter dross.

    As for serial winner...so was Bloke in a coat and he won the Carling Cup snd bored us senseless too.

    90 mins of my life I won't get back

    10 points dropped from winning positions. Second highest in the league.

    Shambles.

    It’s the same story as far too often this season. Go up, fail to come out second half, and pay the price. Yes you can argue we hit the post in the second half and created a few more in the first but it can’t mask the issues that have plagued us all season.

    As ever the frustration is that when we go for it after conceding the equaliser, we always create chances. But we seldom try and bury the game early enough.

    Lots to improve on from Jose and the players. Again.

    Well played Fulham, they deserved a point at least and we once again were not good enough.

    Disappointing. Yet again chance blown to close the gap on the leaders

    On the bright side though, lads. At least we know Winks is staying, that’s what really matters.

    Remember the 2008-9 season where we habitually conspired to find ways to not make up points on teams above us?

    Yeah, being compared to Juande Ramos isn't a good look around here...

    Can’t expect Jose to pop it in the back of the net for them

    once again not being clinical with clear cut chances has cost us

    He could do something about that **** team selection...and the lack of substitutes...and sitting back until they scored?

    No?

    For fifteen minutes before the equalizer most of us could see that changes were required. How come Jose can’t? He used to be proactive with his subs, even doing it in the first half a few times, but seems to be only reactive now.

    The players were going between sitting back and going forward...they don’t have the killer pass to break efficently... I thought they were all lacklustre today with their fight.

    He threw another striker on...that suggests attacking intent.

    6 pts from 6 games. That is relegation form.

    Maybe, but we were outplayed for most of the 2nd half - granted if Son scores we probably would have won, but we have all seen that picking all 3 of Hojbjerg, Winks and Sissoko leaves us with few creative talents. And that's not saying that those 3 played badly they all contributed in their own way, but playing Sissoko as our right sided player means we have a lot of the ball and no end product, and thats in a match where I think he played just about as well as he can.

    What a difference to have a game changing sub, surely by now Bale should be able to have the sort of impact that Lookman did, but its just not happening

    Yes, we did...after they'd scored...again...just like numerous other games

    It didn't work then either...

    what should he have done?

    Who was changing it off that bench for you?

    our best attackers were on that pitch

    Bergwijn? He can’t score for **** and for me Lamela was just as good a sub.

    Our best players were lacklustre tonight and when we were having a good period they weren’t finishing it off.
