Tuesday, 7:45PM

Tickets are now on general sale, no booking history required.
Looks like just over 1,000 tickets left - most of them in block M1, which is normally part of the away end.

Lots of £30 tickets returned by Fulham unsold.

We're now reselling to our own fans for £42.

Something is rotten.
 
Big one this.

Zero points from Newcastle, Liverpool, Fulham would put us right in the shit. Again.

A result needed against a side that appears to have their act together.

I think the result tells us a lot of just how ****ing panicked we should all be.

Needless to say I’m not particularly optimistic.
 
Well so far we’ve got away with it in the league tables after two defeats over Christmas, with no one else below us winning a game as far as I can tell.

Three points here and we’ll have scraped through the festive matches.
 
The score line will depend on what team turns out, the one v Newcastle or Liverpool
 
Fulham are a team who play with a style that suits their players.

They have a striker with a very clear skill set and they play to it.

We are pretty much the exact opposite.

We have strikers with no clear skill set and we play a system and style that our players are not good enough to pull off regularly.

Should be a simple case of a well drilled, organised and effective team beating an inconsistent side with a lack of identity.
 
if we turn like we did against Liverpool we should win, it is all down to attitude, there is no way BR will ever change his tactics so that is all we have left.
fingers crossed we get a result
 
We'll lose this, 2 nil

That’s a superb summary. They’ll win because their players have actual roles that they’re clear on.
 
Over 800 tickets still unsold.

7 players out for us - Evans, Ricardo, Justin, Bertrand, Daka, Praet, Maddison

So I assume it will be:

Ward
Castagne Amartey Faes Thomas
Tielemans Soumare Dewsbury-Hall
Perez Vardy Barnes

Subs: Iversen, Vestergaard, Soyuncu, Mendy, Ndidi, Iheanacho, Albrighton, Brunt, McAteer

In 10 of our 17 games we've failed to get to 1.00 xG. We've overachieved against our xG more than any other side so far.

Interestingly, Fulham have the highest xG against in the PL so they've been getting away with giving up chances and not being punished.
 
I think Wilf needs to play here.

Same 11 as Liverpool, though I’d like to see both Nacho and Alrighton given a chance in positions we are clearly struggling in.
 
Ward

Castagne Amartey Faes Thomas

Soumare Ndidi

Perez Ihenacho Albrighton

Vardy

Barnes needs to be dropped. He won’t be of course. An isolated Vardy is a waste of a player. Yes, we might Sunday League Kelechi but we might get a decent partnership up top. I mean we may as well give it a go. Ndidi and Soumare paired well at Anfield so I see no need to change that.
 
Not feeling great so might not bother
