Watching Fulham v W Ham. Hammers just took the lead.

Fulham have been really good going forward, but have a shockingly shit right back Odoi. His diving in on the flank, yet again by him, led to the counter attack goal.

The BT half time analysis by Jenas, Owen and arrogant Jake Humphrey was crap.

For the second goal Antonio stood still 6 yards out, completely unmarked waiting for the ball for circa 5 seconds. Both useless Fulham CB’s marking the same player miles away.

Barely a mention on BT of the pub league defending.

I find that hard to believe esp as one of those centre backs is Alfie Mawson, who, as we all know, is better than Mr Dunk.

If Ranieri keeps Fulham up that will be a greater achievement than winning the PL with Leicester as they are absolute shite

Disagree. They spent over 100 million. Huddersfield staying up last year was better. Cardiff will be an even bigger achievement s they only spent 30 million.

I can understand that mentality from them up the road, but surely no Brighton fan actually gauges a squads ability on how much it cost?

Agree, Fulham spent £110 on ‘names’.

But nothing will ever match 5,000/1 LCFC winning the league, including pipping the relative spending machines of Spuds and Arsenal with all their internationals on the final run in.

Isn't that a different point? Ernest is talking about Ranieri (saving a fulham who are terrible and already hamstrung by a poor start to the season) v Ranieri (taking a Leicester with performing stars and leading them to the title in a season when top teams underperformed.)

You seem to be arguing Fulham (staying up) v 'expected to be relegated' teams (staying up)

Southampton beat Arsenal 3-2. This is why it's premature to sit back and assume we are safe. We're about to enter sacking season and some clubs at the bottom will rally round. Lots of work still to be done.
