Fulham – Villa; Has he been sacked yet?

Well, apparently not and we can only wish.

The first thing Steve Gerrard mentioned in the Email I got from the club today mentioned how we’d got no new squad problems because Cameron Archer is fit after suffering from a bug at the weekend.
Why he even bothered to mention that, I really don’t know, as if the lad gets on the pitch it’ll probably only be for a couple of minutes anyway.
In fact, not playing Archer when Watkins and Ings are so ineffective is just one of the reasons I want him gone. If it’s the case that the manager doesn’t want to risk the kid losing confidence because of a poor game or something, that might be acceptable, if only he would come out and say that.
But it just seems like he doesn’t rate Archer at all and his comments to the Brum Mail reporter regarding Archer just heightened my disdain for him even more.

You never know, now that I’ve said that, maybe Gerrard realises how close to the bullet he is and will actually give Archer a good half an hour or so. Then again, I doubt it.

And then, the fact that Lucas Digne might have done a bit of training on grass today apart, I really couldn’t care less about what he has to say.
Which is some state of affairs. I even listened to Alex McLeish, even though I really didn’t like him.

So given that I’m finding it hard to even motivate myself to watch the game, which is on Prime video,
I’m going to give my guess as to how the game will go.

We’ll huff and puff and maybe even create some chances. We have have yet another boatload of shots.
But I don’t see us scoring more than one, if that.
And given that we still look prone to conceding, whether through Mings’ errors or not, I think we’ll concede more than one.
Hence I’m going for a 2-1 defeat.
And if it happens, I don’t know how I’ll feel.
I don’t want us to lose, yet a defeat would put Gerrard another step closer to being gone.
Which would be a good thing.

    Apparently the commentary is we lack consistency when we are consistently shit.
    Hitch, I think Bailey should stay on if it helps in Gerrard’s downfall!

      🙂 sad though that we’re on the point of supporting the opposition to hasten the exit of Gerrard

      After that half, even if we managed to turn it around (which we wont) in the second half, he needs gone on that alone. Just heard commentary say Leno hasnt kept cleansheet this season. So there you have it. Clean sheet guaranteed for fulham now .

        Mitrovich has made a meal of that. It’s like he was hit in the face by a train. Tw@t.

    You just know that somehow we will get a draw out this and Gerrard will survive another week

    Its a real dilemma this. I would take the defeat if it means he goes tonight, but on the other hand we desperately need the points.

      Sadly, I’m beginning not to care about points – just get rid of Gerrard now and give us a chance.

      I cannot believe that Gerrard last longer than Liz Truss. He’s pissing useless.

    So Gerrard substitutes Bednorak for Cash – just shows how tactically inept he is – admission of failure?

    Comms already talking about the Brentford game as being Gerrard’s last chance – so they’ve already written Villa off tonight and you can’t blame them

    Bailey shouldn’t even be starting – eventually hooked

    I’m so fed up – what a load of crap. Stupid by Luiz but Mitrovitch made an absolute meal of it.

    Still if it helps getting Gerrard out so be it.

    That was all Luiz fault. He does something stupid every game. You can’t do that even if Mitrovic did make a meal of it. Now a penalty. Gerrard is gone by tomorrow.

    The whole club is poisoned. If you’re looking who to blame then look at Purslow. He abandoned the project that Smith laid down to get his mate in.
    Now it’s 2-0!

      A lot of truth in that Holte.

      Fans have to push to get rid of Purslow as well as Gerrard.

    Not only is he a crap manager, he’s an unlucky one.
