Team vs. Fulham (FA Cup)

[topper]

Is it Fulham we're playing or have Real Madrid managed to get a bye to the 5th round ?

 

[millsey]

Pace! I just want to see someone capable of going past a few players or running in behind.

Then what??

 

[slartibartfast]

I'd go as close as poss to team and formation that beat Chelsea.
No one needs resting, they've done fk all for about 3 weeks.
Looking at some of the line ups in this thread I think some don't care if we get knocked out or are so arrogant they think we can put any line up out there and beat Fulham. Wtf you can base that on I don't know.
I'm not confident at all that we'll win

 

[slartibartfast]

Then what??

Sky it into row z for a throw in lol

 

[Galactico14]

Then what??

Sorry, Not sure if that's a serious question?

But I'm not sure I can sit through another 90mins of moving the ball from side to side all as narrow as possible.

It was slight tongue in cheek.
All very well asking for pace, but they have to do something with it. Don't fancy us running quicker and losing one nil!

For example, watching Walker use his blistering pace to beat his man get down the wing just to fkin stop cut back and pass it backwards 15 times a game, a little frustrating to say the least. Put it in the mixer ffs. If you cant/wont do that then whats the point of getting down there?

Edited. Far too many unnecessary fks in there lol.

"It's a small pitch and they will be motivated but we need to deal with it," says Dembele to the Standard.

So Wembley is too big, Craven Cottage is too small. What do we reckon the ideal pitch side for our lot is?

The ones with handles lol. This is a good example of give a footballer an excuse and he'll take it. Already have failure in mind by the sound of it.
I wish after poor results our players would just stfu. Just had email from spurs with Dier saying 'we've a special relationship with the fans.' Just ribs a bit after recent performances. Does me anyway.

If we don't have some experience in there and have the right approach to this game we could be in trouble.

They'll be right up for this - it's on the Beeb, and it's a ground where we've come unstuck before on various occasions, it's tight and the crowd is right on top of the players.

Janssen

Subs- Lopez, Vertonghen, KWP, Dembele, Dele, Edwards, Onamah

Dier looks mentally and physically knacked, Kane needs a rest to find his mojo again. Wanyama needs a rest as well, been playing in flip-flops last few games but all of our pivots need resting so needs must

If we are winning get Edwards on in one of the AM slots, and KWP a run out at either WB role and Onamah in which ever role is his actually position (don't ask me I have no idea)

If (haha) we are slow, lethargic and devoid of ideas then bring Dele and Moose on

I'd give Dier a break, looks like he needs it. ​

 

[Bobbins]

I'm seeing too many formations starting Janssen with absolutely no brains around him.

You can't play him with Son, N'Koudou, Sissoko etc behind or alongside him. That's just a bunch of runners with no intelligence at all and it's one of the reasons he's struggled so much as he's been playing with these guys every time he's on the pitch and seeing absolutely no ball as a result.

If it's three up front then he needs Eriksen and Alli up there with him. If it's three behind the striker then those two plus Son or Edwards could come in.

We need brains not more brawn.

It's a bloody shame we got rid of Pritchard as him and Edwards either side of Eriksen all behind Janssen would actually be very exciting.

That's not pace. Walker already has pace. It's intelligence.
