I've only got a stream, but we carried on attacking 2nd half, and still carried a threat. Their first was a bit of a special strike, the second more about the conditions then anything else, the third was a foul. Before their 3rd their keeper pulls off best save of the game.

I'm not being funny, but at times we've looked good again, but we were far too attacking – which is what most people throwing their toys out of their prams DEMAND every week - yeah, this is what bloody well happens!

How many say, I could take a defeat as long as we were attacking!?

..but Mustafa says we are far too negative

Pretty sickening stuff. You have to admire Ranieri for not being afraid to make changes quickly.
Hughton is such a great manager but it was so so obvious where the game was heading that second half and yet still nothing bloody changed until 70 bloody minutes. Too late to change momentum and regain upper hand

Don’t admire Ranieri one bit. Had a £100m+ team of ‘names’, home advantage and an Albion team that came out comatose. Any other PL team, bar Hudd, would have seen this out with ease.

Total shambles second half and as usual Hughton was way too slow react to what was happening. When a team make radical changes we lose the plot. Fulham pushed the full backs right up and packed the middle. Locadia and Gross totally bypassed and Stephens walking a tightrope on a yellow. The only sensible thing he did was shut down the left side by switching Solly out there.

Need to keep calm and put this one behind us and just focus on beating Watford and Burnley. Can't worry about what's gone regardless of how frustrating tonight has been.

If ever there was a game of two halves this was it, first half we could and should have scored four second half they did

Good night

Great 1st half. Then... going defensive NEVER ****ing works. So why do you keep doing it?

Fulham have had 24 shots. That is unacceptable.

The problem isn't that we had a bad second half - it's that so many of us could see it coming once we let in the first goal and were only 2-1 up. What we seem to lack is the ability to withstand a team that drives at us and to get back into the game. Yes, I know Murray was close to getting it to 3-2, but we seem to wilt so much when other teams really have a go.

Really? it was still 2-2 at 70 minutes and Murray had a great change saved to stop us going 3-2 up just before they did. Completely different game if he scores. Not only that, but we had 3 other great chances to go 3-0 up in the first half. Don't think they would've come out quite so fast 2nd half if we had.

Maybe we should become like the Arsenal of old, and the way we were earlier in the season, and just try and nick games 1-0? :shrug:
