Probably not the first to call it out but do Maupay and Trossard flatter to deceive or what.

Easy chances for Premier League standards.......again

What must the likes of BIssouma, White and Dunk be thinking deep down.

To quote Craig RH...... NOT GOOD ENOUGH


Still hate Palace though

Trossard is awful lately, Maupay just isn’t clinical enough to be our main striker. He makes the wrong decisions too often.

They are both good Premier League players. Maupay would get in most PL sides.

Hold your nerve, we're improving all the time.
We're lucky to have the squad we've got.

Both played well overall today but their finishing is a joke.

Potter must literally be pulling his hair out, what more can he do?!

A better job of managing and coaching ? Substitutes? Shooting practice maybe ?

Just throwing a few ideas around.

I very much agree with your point, but both look short on confidence which translates into snatched shots, poor decision making at crucial times we are playing well and improving but how many chances have they squandered tonight, we really could have done with a Glen Murray figure somone to caress the ball into the net and not try to take the paint of the ball by kicking it so hard, it's all about conference

Drop them. Train them. Buy an alternative. Don’t bring on a midfielder too late when we need to try and win

Make a substitution?

But when you’re playing well like we were and creating chances, substitutions can sometimes have the opposite effect and you stop creating chances. There is absolutely no guarantee that the players brought on would take the chances but they might upset the balance of play.

And it’s not like our subs are lethal finishers. We had two goals this season on the bench tonight.

I genuinely think Potter is doing a brilliant job with the tools he has.

I thought so after 55 minutes. Biss and Mac were on a yellow and it didn't take much for Fulham to go to ground. Lallana always fashions something and is willing to have a pop. As well as we were playing we were often overplaying allowing Fulham to get a block in. And still our crosses and passes all too often don't find a blue shirt

No. Tau was an option. Lala. AC. What does Potter do? Take off our best creator and put on the underwhelming Propper. Just plain wrong
