FULHAM HOME THREAD

Chips and Chocolate · Wed May 05, 2010 11:46 pm

I'm a bit worried about this one, Fulham are playing good football at the moment, they ENJOY playing together, they breathe happiness and even if they'll certainly put a 2nd-string team they'll be motivated...
Arsene reward the players that gave a shit (or sort of) this year by playing them: RVP, Campbell, Song...

I'd go

Sagna-Campbell-???-Gibbs

Eboue-Song-Nasri-Arshavin (provided he moves his lazy arse from the start otherwise back to the bench!!!)

Bendtner-RVP

As long as we get a draw the ****'s wont get past us; now that really would be a nail in Wengers coffin. Hopefully Fulham will be thinking about the europa game, and will thus be nicely distracted

Mad as I may be, I'm still looking forward to the game. Have to say though that even my boys looked at me strangely this morning when I said that so maybe you have a point....

Fact is though - as some have pointed out and got stick for - this season has hardly been a disaster. All this talk of protest is a joke! The club are at a real crossroads re-Management/Ownership and I think you should save your protests for when things really do go badly. Chances are that the catalyst for things going badly will be:
- Wenger leaving
- Change in ownership
Which, bizarrely are what some (most?) of you are clamouring for....

City would have died for a CL place last night. Well we already have one. Liverpool are desparate for a new stadium. We have one. Things aint perfect, but we're well placed for next season....

Bar this individual from this forum immediately for having such a sane outlook on the current situation! You don't belong here!

I've sent a PM to the mods.

A trial date is being set as we speak

fulham requested for the game to be played on saturday, but the premier league have rejected their request

would have been fair i suppose with them in a european final

My problem is the lack of effort. Finishing 3rd is no great shame given everything this year, but the collapse of the team through lack of effort in the last few games has been shockingly bad.

And I wonder, if Fabianski fucks up in the last minute of this game, costing us 3rd, whether Wenger will finally sign one

if the team picked to play on sunday have any shred of pride left hopefully it will come through and end the season on a high. The lack of effort shown the last while has just put everyone on a downer so arsene get your boot stuck up some arses and motivate the team....i can see a 2-0 win for us here

If we can't beat a half rested Fulham team at home we don't don't deserve to finish third!!

fulham 2nd string players will be fighting to get on the pitch in hamburg
their 1st team would be just avoiding injuries

I don't care whether they are fighting for their lives.... Fulham's 2nd string should NEVER be good enough to take 3 points off of our, albeit depleted, first team.

Of course, I'll be relieved if news comes through of an early Burnley goal, but (despite the last few weeks) this really is a game that Eduardo, Nasri, Walcott etc should be relishing as a chance to end the season with a bang!

Sundays game is a bunch of overpaid under-achievers v a team of over achievers

I seriously hope you're right and Fulham as good as forfeit this game. We need all the help we can get at the mo.

Djourou was on the bench against Blackburn wasnt he? He's gotta be a better choice than Silvestre, even after being out for such a long time.
