    Check the options on myp2p, I got one of them to work. And everyone knows that site so I'm not going to PM it.

    The one that did, now doesn't (for me) "due to copyright".

    This is what I felt Hughes lacked that Hodgs had. He knew how to keep a lead.

    Fulham look like they are slipping back into the Sanchez / Cookie mold where they can get the score, then can't hold a lead for longer than 5minutes. If they can avoid the loss in the last 10minutes of the match then at least they have not fully switched back to the old mold.

    Let's see how the second half plays out. Definitely not the end of the scoring.

    He was actually trying to do me a favor.



    Which just means I'll have to wait until I'm really sure he's asleep before I TP his yard.

    Clint set up Hughes (miss) then DCMI Kamara (score). As always, he brings it against the Spur. I wonder if they passed him up or something. I don't know why he always has great matches against them.

    Don't try to pin this on Hodgson leaving. Ridiculous. Though I fully expected this post from you...

    He's definitely looked like he means business from the start.

    Is this his first start in MF for Hughes?

    In the interim, Kamara has forced a great save from Gomes and Ledley King has gone of injured (shocking, I know).

    It's as simple as Demps being back on the left wing where he belongs.

    God there are some flopping Spurs today...

    yeah, they are trying to get dempsey on a yellow. He has 4 fouls on him now I think.

    It's like Coach K is in the technical area for Spurs today.

    For some reason I'm watching a detailed psycho-analysis right now of Marcus Hahnemann based on his caricature drawing and signature.

    Clint Dempsey is just class, absolute class.

    Can you teach Hughes how to teach his team how to hold a lead?

    They used to be able to strangle matches. Really just bore the hell out of you with a lead. Now...

    Against West Ham, against Spur, against Blackpool they managed to pull it back after losing it. Blackburn they managed to get one back. Against ManU it took a magical penalty save.

    Sounds to me like a team that can't hold a lead. Though two of those goals against were pretty hairy OG by pantsil and Brede.

    Probably the most impressive part of Clint's dynamite first half was his defense. I'm not sure anything got down his side, with he and Salcido keeping it locked down. The fact that he also got forward and was probably Fulham's most dangerous attacking player is just amazing.

    I thought Dempsey's first touch was very un-Clint like in the first half, but of course, he shows off his class with a beautiful first touch on a ball served into him in the box, and is steady with a centered ball that 99% of strikers make a goal with. He's a joy to watch.
