Fulham 0-2 Chelsea

[lucio 5,418]

This should have been a Saturday kickoff , can’t give us Monday after 2 Sunday’s in a row 

[gdlk 272]

No selfish Sterling please.. We should bash him to Saudis.. 

[nyikolajevics 2,577]

Craven Cottage, Monday night, doesn't sound good.

 

No Jackson and Chilly, but I'm sure there will be Connor and Caicedo in midfield and Enzo as number 10.  They have Willian and Pereira, I don't know which one would be more annoying to concede from. 

 

No good feelings about this.

Surely it won't be loss number 4....

Wonder if Cole Palmer will start up top as a false 9? He did that for City a bit.

no more f9 please

Might be our best option tbh. Would obviously rather have a real 9 that is PL ready but I don't think we do with NJ out.

I see we're down to 15th now, we're in a relegation dogfight.

Lose this as I expect and we are in shit street.

Nah. We got this. 
 

I think we get a comfy 3-1 win. 
 

People don’t view that Villa loss well, but they created nothing in the game prior to us being down to 10. 
 

We will come good.

If we do start with a false 9 it’ll surely be Sterling up top. I would go with Sterling flanked by Mudryk and Palmer and then have Gallagher just behind them as the advanced CM rather than Enzo so that we have more aggression and energy in our press. Move Enzo deeper next to Caicedo where he can actually dictate the tempo and spray creative passes. We can try the “Enzo as a #10” experiment once Lavia is fit and up to speed. But for now it’s stupid. Play Gallagher where he’s more comfortable and play Enzo where he’s more comfortable.

Anyways, we 100% have to win this by any means necessary. Have to start putting wins on the board. I expect Fulham to come out super aggressively to try to rattle us knowing that our team is shocking once we go behind. So it’s extremely important that we match their intensity.

 think that's how it's going to be w/ Sterling and Palmer, but I suspect they will insist with Enzo as number 10 unfortunately. We miss him playing deeper. 😕 
Honestly even Gallagher looks better than Enzo when closer to the opposition box.

I'd say if a win isn't possible, do not loose tho. Even if we have a bad game, need to show competitiveness and grind points here and there.

If we were to lose or draw this game, relegation becomes a serious outcome.

[Mhsc 876]

Maybe we'll see Enzo as a false 9 lol

I reckon we're gonna win this and kick start our season onto a good run that marches us towards top 6 over time. Call me naive... I reserve the right to be an optimistic idiot about my club 

 

[Costa19 858]

Fulham away gives me bad bad flashbacks from last season.. 

[robsblubot 3,504]

Fulham has been doing well, but it's early so it means little at this point.

They do have good players in a few positions, and players which can cause of problems.

My concern with our overly young side is always on the competitiveness against more senior/experienced players (esp away games).
