7/10 for Bassey? He got turned and left playing catch-up on numerous occassions. Not quite as badly exposed as Joachim, but still. He did not look particularly confident or comfortable, and seemed to be desperately hanging on a few times. I'd say he was a whisker away from a 4/10 performance, and only just got away with it.
Can't agree on Leno and Bassey as between them they conspired on many occasions to put us under pressure with their dodgy passing between each other. A better team would have punished them at least once or twice. It was painful to watch when we had the ball at the back. Diop should be starting for Anderson or Bassey and Lecomte should be given a Premiership start. An away point is always a good point but creatively we were on the beach. After all we have reached the month of March.
Am I the only one who thought both offsides were quite obvious in real time and then was surprised when VAR showed them to be tight calls? Anyway I could not agree more that Diop should be starting over Andersen. He might be the slowest CB in the league even though as far as I know Harry Maguire is still around.
Andersen. He is the actual captain for gawd sake. Sat behind the goal. Saved our bacon a time or two The pen against him last week was a yellow card dive. Gillett dropped this week. Webb not impressed
Yeah your years watching soccer out lasts mine even though I am older 59 years young but I have a couple of disagreements although the first half was slow it definitely was not a snoozer and the second half was end to end even with Tom coming in :-) Leno got a clean sheet! MOTM Josh King the little man was all over place getting to into open spaces I feel his teammates didn't find him. But as always great job good breakdown of your thoughts on Youtube.
That's 3 poor matches against dreadfully inferior sides.
The lineup was ok.
We needed more punch centrally and had zero offence up the right. Tete is not a patch on Castagne's wingback attacks. Defensively Tete was extremely poor - caught ball watching on the penalty call and the goal and the Awoniyi breakaway. Two VAR calls and a desperate lunge block saved us a point. King is a lightweight and tends to drive into a cul-de-sac. With ESR & Kevin out, it would've been better to start Lukic and push Iwobi higher IMO. Bring King off the bench when his quickness against tired legs might prove to be 2 more points in the standings - assuming we haven't scored already.
Finally, bringing on Chukwueze & Sessegnon was positive but please put them on the correct wing. Putting the left footed Sess on the right and Samu on the left is counter intuitive.
I totally agree with Kevin it’s time to drop Andersen For Diop and Leno for Lecomte I also think Sess needs to play further up, our passing is still bloody awful and we move forward at a snail’s pace Leno still faffs around with the ball and will get caught out soon mark my words.
It was Leno and Bassey faffing about who cost us Wham game not Andersen. All Leno had to do was put his boot through it. Agree Leno will get caught out faffing about. Oppo watch the videos.

Andersen our best player. Nonsense saying he should be replaced. Diop for Bassey makes more sense
Wolverhampton currently looks more invested than Fulham. Is their coach available?

Guving Cairney 6.5 and Andersen 5.5 shows a lack of judgement. Cairney did little.

54% possession. Too much in our half. No shots. Dont shoot don't score.
