    Can we please not have to watch Zamora anymore?

    If anybody locates a good stream, I'll take it. I know the match is on FSC, but I'm too sick/lazy to leave computer at moment.

    Hopefully this match is as good as the one last year - when Fulham came back and won 3-2.

    Dempsey playing on the left apparently

    Demsp with a nice steal and cross that Johnson should have one-timed. Instead it was blocked. The funny thing being Zamora's dummy...maybe we'll be better off if he continues to not touch the ball. LOL

    Sometimes it's breathtaking how much better Fulham are these days than they were, say, a year and a half ago.

    Wow, Zamora may be the worst professional footballer I've ev er seen in my life. Ever. He lucks into a 1 v keeper, and flubs it.

    AJ should have gotten a card for diving in the box. Shame, if he wouldn't have been overly concerned with faking a dive, he would have scored a legit goal.

    Nevland and Gera now, please.

    You can't blame him for that, Given was all over him by the time he swung around.

    Given closed him down quickly. It wasn't as easy as you're making it sound. (Not that I'm a big fan of Zamora.)

    Imagine where they would be with a competent striker.

    Is Konchesky really that fast? I didn't think he was going to get to that ball.

    Am I right in thinking Micah Richard's star has dimmed a little bit? Is he in the picture for England's national team at all?

    Pathetic defense there, just let him waltz right down the field and score.

    Nice one. He's having a fantastic year. You could see it in him when he was keeping Beasley on the bench a couple of years ago.

    Dempsey has been doing reasonably well. He made a couple of sharp defensive plays early on and since then has been active in mid field, doing well knitting the defense to the offense. Trouble is most of his touches are coming with his back to the goal near the midfield line.

    If he didn't even want to fly to Ireland for international matches, I can't imagine how many "Grandmas" he would invent to die so he wouldn't have to represent the US.

    Clint just skinned Richards at midfield.

    edit: and gets beaten by Richards who then puts in a (fortunately poor) cross a couple of minutes later.

    I believe he was timed as the fastest player on Fulham's squad.
