Fulham's D and goalie are horrific. I've lost alot of confidence in Bocanegra. I've heard rumors but this seals it.
Nice hard work there by Dempsey to get the ball over to Smertin who's shot is deflected into the goal. Amazing but Fulham can still steal a point here.
Dempsey is creating everything positive for Fulham. This isn't saying that Dempsey is a world-beater, but Fulham are just not good going forward at all. Smertin gets a goal off a deflection that was created by a nice pass by Dempsey from his backside.
maybe Dempsey read that "what happened to his grit" thread, because he's out there making things happen on a day when this team could have felt defeated and been dead and buried long ago.
Fulham do not have any wide players. At all. They've got plenty of big bodies, wouldn't they feel that a good winger or two would work well? Didn't they watch Watford crash out last year?
Well, if it's worked once in history, may as well keep trying. Seriously, you may as well just forget the corner and hand the ball to the goalie.
Liverpool is beating Derby 6-0 just in case anyone was interested. highlight for the liverpool game score.
Fulham is starting to win the second balls off the long ball. Their midfielders are starting to stay closer to their frontman...however they space they are vacating is screaming for Spurs to counter through. Fulham have to equalize soon, or they'll give up their fourth. (edit: I suppose playing 4 up top is a good way to win second balls...) Baird is not a prem quality player going forward from fullback.
