Emerson Thome Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Highlights flatter us a bit. At least two of those chances had been called offside well before the shot was taken. Fulham didn't create much, but then they didn't have to as we gave them such a soft goal. Can't help but think a better manager than Parker would have carried on attacking and tried to get a second. Which is probably why they won't go up this season, and with the squad they have they should be a lot better really than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannan was quiet for most of the game today, maybe they were effective at keeping him quiet, but when he isn’t running things in midfield we struggle more often than not!!

Personally thought our midfield 3 all struggled today, especially Lee. Re: Bannan's chance, I agree he should have worked the goalie, but certainly only a half chance.

With the technical talent at their disposal I thought they were actually pretty toothless especially in the final third. We've come out of the ground watching our lads chase shadows for much of the game in the baking heat, but the highlights cut through their aimless possession and show that in the cold light of day we had by far the better chances in the match in both halves, albeit not clear cut. I really feared that in the second half when we go two up top they would pick us off but in fact they played in the same style and didn't create a thing, until the last 10 when they turned into BIlly Davies FC. If I was Monk I'd see this as a missed opportunity looking back, but a point gained given the circumstances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewookieisdown Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 They do perhaps flatter us slightly but they show how little Fulham had (were allowed to have?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah agreed it wasn’t a tap in but a Bannan from 2/3 years ago would have buried that easily. He’s lost something, which unfortunately appears to be some quality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A half volley, outside the box which was dropping across his body and with a player in front of him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. I guess it is different skills involved in shooting but i find it weird how poor his shooting is with the left foot he has. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in this case it was a decent enough effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Yep, Bannan two years ago only scored 1 goal all season so not sure he'd have banged that in. Wednesday are the only club in his career he's scored more than 1 league goal for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's TERRIBLE and always has been, even during warm up. watched him closely on sat, and for once ,noticed that most of the players were keeping their shots around a foot from the ground including bannan, and even commented on this to my mate. Unfortunately when the chance came, it sailed over the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DobbinTheDonkey Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Monk got his tactics bang on. We were compact and rarely troubled. The only time we were bent out of shape they scored. They even started knocking it long as they had ran out of ideas. Highlights didn't flatter us at all, all that possession for nothing. They tried to draw us out but we kept shape and then when we broke forward we looked more dangerous. Morons behind me shouting 4-4-2, get an extra forward on at home. No idea, sometimes you have to accept the opposition has more talent so you play accordingly. Some may say they pay to be entertained but Monk is paid to get results. One piece of all round sloppy pay cost us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However he doesn't score enough or work the goalie from in and around the box nearly enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Bannan can occasionally smack one in from distance, but his finishing is pretty poor for a player with his ability. Got to think Luongo comes in at some point. We need some legs and energy in midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
