    @bayimports end of the game looked like a manager saying bye to the fans

      So, Gary O'Neil first one gone, but only by a whisker, Russel Martin joins the sacked managers club the very next day.

      Although the round not completely over yet, Fulham take a point off the current favorites which is a big result. Forest continue to surprise. City blow another lead. Spurs continue their topsy turvy form and Chelsea continue their rise.

      Interesting weekend for sure

        Fuck! Fulham have the Saints in the next round. We're doomed.

        After taking 6 from Spurs, Brighton, Arsenal, Liverpool it would be very Fulhamish to drop points to the bottom club - we did it last year. and our two worst performances this season have been against Wolves and Ipswich.

        The last thing we needed was a new Mgr bounce.

          Chelsea are on fire at the moment. Manager is doing a great job. Last year was the Cole solo show, this year they’re a team.

            Chelsea are as good as City are mentally fragile.

            Liverpool still in pole position although by the time they play next they could well be second (with two games in hand).

            They for me are still the best team in the league tho.

            Despite the win, United are still pretty poor. Amorim no magic touch so far.

              @dogmeat Surely we are tougher mentally than we have been in the past.
              It has been a major frustration over the years how well they can play against the top teams and how shit they can be against teams below them. Even in their great championship year they were doing that.

                @middleman They were doing it last year. Dropped 7 points to Sheffield and Burnley, but yeah I would hope we smack Southampton.

                        Tottenham terrible against Liverpool. With the difference in quality they needed to play park the bus not rush forward and leave acres of space. Men vs boys. Reckon the Aussie is in trouble.

                            Only saw the highlights and from that it looked a bit of a freakish result as United had a lot of good chances/goalmouth scrambles - Bruno alone looked like he had 10 shots. However Bournemouth ruthless and United's defence is always shaky. The tackle for the penalty was awful and the 3rd goal was very nicely worked.

                            It was definitely men v boys, Liverpool are much too good to be that reckless against with only one first choice in your defensive unit. Whenever Spurs managed to move up the pitch they were only a misplaced pass away from conceding a goal. The 5th goal illustrated it best - Kulusevski has an easy pass to put Porro into a huge space all on his own, he dallies and the Liverpool left side that wasn't covering Porro score down the other end. Entertaining though. Gravenberch looks some player in the midfield.

                              Fulham only drawing with Southampton and Chelsea with Everton. Both teams will be disappointed.

                                  That's why as a neutral I like Ange haha. His teams are entertaining to watch.

                                  Everton's 4th goalless draw in 6 games. They're so hard to break down as are all of sean dyche's teams. If you don't score against them in the first 25-30 mins, it makes for a hard afternoon.

Entertaining though. Gravenberch looks some player in the midfield.

                                      Given normally I’m aiming g for getting past 30 points in a full year is my main aim, hitting 28 points by Christmas is awesome. Biggest thing right now is preventing players and Manager getting poached.

                                      At some point I see Areola winning at a big club

                                      0-6 at home for Man U covering last two years v Bournemouth lol. Love it

                                      Only saw the highlights and from that it looked a bit of a freakish result as United had a lot of good chances/goalmouth scrambles - Bruno alone looked like he had 10 shots. However Bournemouth ruthless and United's defence is always shaky. The tackle for the penalty was awful and the 3rd goal was very nicely worked.

                                      Tottenham terrible against Liverpool. With the difference in quality they needed to play park the bus not rush forward and leave acres of space. Men vs boys. Reckon the Aussie is in trouble.

                                      It was definitely men v boys, Liverpool are much too good to be that reckless against with only one first choice in your defensive unit. Whenever Spurs managed to move up the pitch they were only a misplaced pass away from conceding a goal. The 5th goal illustrated it best - Kulusevski has an easy pass to put Porro into a huge space all on his own, he dallies and the Liverpool left side that wasn't covering Porro score down the other end. Entertaining though. Gravenberch looks some player in the midfield.

                                      One of the best managers in the league. A genius appointment.

                                      I see him succeeding at a powerhouse club in the future too.

                                        Same same. Although Silva doesn't seem to have the same cachet as the likes of Franks and Iraola

                                          Disappointed? Absolutely!

                                          Surprised? Not in the least 😞

                                          No surprise just Fulham being Fulhamish but you so have to wonder. I would have taken 6 point from those last few games but to draw with Liverpool,Arsenal, Tottenham , beat Brighton and then lose to Southampton is not the way I saw us getting them.
                                          Still need to find a more consistent striker for the rest of the season, but after the last 40 years I’ll be happy with a mid table finish.
