Feels like a win, but it isn't.

[ChristheViking]

Trafford – 6 – could have done better for both goals but to be fair kept us in it in the 2nd half with some good saves.

Assignon – 7 – did well for his debut and a peach of a cross for the first.
O’Shea – 5 – part of a rocky defence
Ekdal – 4 – asleep for the 2nd goal
Esteve – 7 – aside from the stray backpass looked more accomplished.
Vitinho – 3 – a liability

Berge – 6 – I wasn’t keen on him playing in the defence but he did ok
Brownhill – 4 – not good enough. They cut thru him and us way too easily
Odobert – 6 – at clear fault for the 2nd goal but looked our most potent supply line especially late on.
Ramsey – 3. Nowhere near Premier League level. Needs a loan out to League 1.

Amdouni -3 . The experiment continues and we get what we get. Stealing a living. Should not be starting again.
Foster – 6 – we didn’t supply much but I at least felt he cared as exemplified by the players-only meeting at the start of the 2nd half.

JBG – 5 – was an upgrade on Ramsey but that was never going to be hard
Fofana – 8. Has to start. End of.

VK – 3. Picked the wrong team. You cannot have two passengers out there. The 1st half was as bad as anything in recent memory and he should notify some players of a lack of effort.

An absolutely rancid performance and one of the most undeserved points I’ve ever seen us get. I’ve defended VK but I cannot and will not defend that especially the 1st half. Forget the point. Look at the performance. Fulham strolled around us and it felt like a pre-season friendly.

Changes have to be made even if it’s just to send a message to certain players.

[bfcmatt]

Trafford - 5 lobbed again, poor distribution
Assignon - 7 +1 for his assist
o'shea - 6
Ekdal - 5 couldnt keep up with Fulam
Vitinho - 7 No end of effort today, I thought it was one of his better performances for us whilst out of position
Brownhill - 5
Berge - 7 lots of defensive cover
Ramsey - 2 terrible
Odobert - 7
Amdouni - 4 Was he supposed to be out wide?
Foster - 6
Gudmundsson - 6
Fofana - 8 MOM
Esteve - 7

[RVclaret]

Trafford 6 - poor on the 2nd, some decent passing and saves
Assignon 7 - looks good
O’Shea 6 - felt he was shaky today but better than
Ekdal 4 - rightly hooked
Vitinho 3 - please Vincent
Ramsey 4 - he’s very floaty, technically good but need more
Brownhill 3 - worst player on the pitch
Berge 7 - shame we don’t have a proper partner for him
Odobert 7 - cracking assist, need him 1 on 1 more
Amdouni 3 - defended him but time for a spell out
Foster 5 - works really hard but lacked end product today

JBG 7 - he gets stick but we always look better with him in?
Fofana 9 - game changer, two goals, application
Esteve 7 - impressive debut from a 21 year old 2 days after arriving

[Awayfromburnley]

Trafford - 6 some bad moments bit some key blocks
Assignon - 7 looked ok
o'shea - 6
Ekdal - 6
Vitinho - 6 shaky at times but one of his better games
Brownhill - 4 sorry, I keep saying it, but he's not good enough. Lightweight.
Berge - 7 very deep but did a job
Ramsey - 4 barely saw him
Odobert - 8 love it when he's on the ball
Amdouni - 5 Improved when he went off..
Foster - 6 loved seeing him rally the lads 2nd half
Gudmundsson - 6
Fofana - 9 bang, bang
Esteve - 8

[JimmyRobbo]

Trafford – 7 – Solid enough in most areas. Probably even gets blamed for Brexit with the levels of criticism he's subjected to.

Assignon – 7 – Looks a good addition. Has pace and a deft touch. Showed a bit of strength where needed.
O’Shea – 7 – Reasonable enough. Ekdal was targeted due to his lack of pace. Improved with a new partner.
Ekdal – 5 – Played off his shoulder and abused his quickness.

Vitinho – 5– Looked better in 2nd half.

Berge – 7 – Nice touches. Odd stray ball.
Brownhill – 6 – We know who he is. Same as always. Plenty of running. Lacks composure to be really good at this level.
Odobert – 7 – Weak when defending but our main creative outlet in many ways. Nice assist putting the ball in a dangerous area.
Ramsey – 4 - Too weak. Like a little lad, at times. Will turn out well but he isn't PL standard.

Amdouni - 5 - Largely anonymous. Good player but not anywhere near his potential.
Foster – 7 – Turning into a leader. Gives everything. Strong and a good target. HIs ball out for our 1st on the counter was perfect.

JBG – 6 – Ok in the time he had. Solid.
Fofana – 8 - What can you say? Gices us something extra. Gets into the right areas. Fights for the cause. I'd start him.
Esteve – 7 – Looked much better with this CB pairing. Overdue height and strength. One dodgy back pass with his right.
JBL - N/A


I'm sure everyone will have their thoughts but I just thought AAD did enough to keep his place. I really don't see Ramsey as a PL player atm. Amdouni, I can understand as he is a classy player when it comes off.

I think we could see we improved massively with Esteve in CB pairing.

[jedi_master]

This was absolute shite today - don’t let the point mask what was a woeful performance until Fofana came on. Players out of position, two players with no idea what they were supposed to be doing and offering as much as two empty crisp packets. So disappointing - this was a must win, no mistake.

Trafford 5 - I continue to defend him but looked poor on both goals from my vantage point. Needs to be stronger on corners.

Assignon 6 - Looked alright, certainly better than Vitinho has been at RB. Good ball for the goal.

O’Shea 4 - This was a return to the O’Shea of the first few months of the season. Easily turned, appalling passing and ball watching endlessly.

Ekdal 3 - I rated him last season and thought he’d done OK on his rare appearances so far this season too, but this was utterly abject. Fulham just needed to put an easy ball over the top or round the side of him and he was clueless to stop it. Admired the ball endlessly.

Vitinho 4 - He’s a trier but he’s just not a Premier League player. When is Taylor back? If not soon then we need to go with Esteve here or something.

Ramsey 3 - I would give him less if I could. He offered absolutely nothing and hadn’t a clue where he was meant to be playing. Soft, ineffectual, slow, anonymous. He has everything to prove at Burnley with a £15m price tag but this is not the season for that experiment. He should not start again until we are in the football league.

Brownhill 5 - Got around the pitch and put his foot in but it’s not enough is it? He offers very little with the ball at his feet.

Berge 6 - Strange positioning for him today, almost acting as a third centre back (not that it made any difference to our defensive abilities). Not his best but unbelievably the pick of our midfield.

Odobert 6 - Goes in and out but he’s a threat when he isolates his full back. Full of ability.

Amdouni 3 - Much like Ramsey, I’d love to give him less. I’m not sure he could have offered less than that today. I, and many others on here, have called for him to be dropped weeks ago yet he inexplicably keeps retaining his shirt and leaving us with effectively ten men. He floats about the pitch doing as he pleases and affecting nothing. Talented? Yes, I believe he is - but he shouldn’t be anywhere near the starting line up of a team ‘battling’ relegation.

Foster 5 - Started brilliantly with his pressing but fell into the same half hearted pattern as the rest of his team as the game progressed. Perked up when Fofana came on and he realised he wasn’t on his own anymore.

JBG 6 - Makes a difference.
Fofana 8 - Energy, enthusiasm, WORKRATE and quality. What we have missed all season since a certain Tella didn’t sign. Inexplicable that he didn’t start after City.
Esteve 8 - Looks a player. Strong, quick and composed on the ball. Has to be starting.

[Les latcham fan club]

Trafford - 5 does not command his area good shot stopper but weak at the rest
Assingnon- 7 looks a prospect
Oshea - 5
Ekdal - 5 slow
Vitinho - 4 we need CT back
Ramsey - 3 gives us nothing
Berge - 6
Brownhill - 3 captain I don't think so
Odo - 7 only real threat
Amdouni- 5 poor again
Foster - 7 least he tries
Subs
Fofana - made a real difference can't fathom why he didn't start
Esteve- 6
JBG - Offers little
Very lucky to get a point. Ripping the soul out of the team has not worked. No team spirit, many not playing for the shirt.

I'll take the point. But they should have been out of sight after an hour.
Test-Tube football from VKs increasingly bewildering experimental thinking of the game.
We've ( he's)been making the same mistakes all season.
Our new signings looked decent.
Doubt that will guarantee a start though....

[Goliath]

Firstly, before doing my ratings i have to say the main culprit for that first half which was absolutely disgustingly bad, was Vincent Kompany. The team had absolutely no clue how to play the formation and there was too many of them out of position. This team is crying out for a simple 442 but Kompany hates playing a basic system, he likes to think hes too smart for it.

Trafford – 5 – i actually think he could have done better on the 1st one, 2nd one he was hung out to dry by some woeful defending. At least 1 absolutely ridiculous throw out in the second half

Assignon – 7 – looked good and what a cross for the goal with his weaker foot (i think)
O’Shea – 5 – not convincing
Ekdal – 5 – Also not convincing but may have been blamed for the 2nd goal which wasnt his fault.
Esteve – 8 – Really impressive
Vitinho – 3 – a liability. If we need someone to play left back put JBG there, or if we need a rigjt back put Brownhill there. Whatever happens he should never play for us at this level again.

Berge – 7 – excellent 2nd half, put in a daft hybrid centre half role first half
Brownhill – 4 – the bad Brownhill. I find him horribly inconsistent which is a problem for someone whos meant to be a steady eddy. JBG basically created the goal for us when he moved there interestingly.
Odobert – 6 – hes a real conundrum, dreadful quite often but then comes alive and creates our best chances. Hes a liability defensively.
Ramsey – 3. Felt sorry for him, he needs to olay in his best position in a settled side. The management of him has been dreadful

Amdouni -3 - As many of us have said on here, hes a waste of space. Fofana proved what its like to have someone there with desire and presence.
Foster – 5 – Not his best game but he had an influence in one of the goals and i was really impressed with his leadership in the huddle at the start of the second half

JBG – 7 – Work rate, desire and some real wuality to open them up for the second goal. Is it time for him to be tried alongside Berge instead of Brownhill?
Fofana – 9. Desire to score goals. He starts alongside Foster next game for me

[Dark Cloud]

Trafford 7 (I'm not actually a fan, but he was no way at fault for either goal and he made some excellent saves second half to keep us in with a sniff. Agreed about one utterly stupid roll out straight to a Fulham player, but crikey, passing to their players was virtually an epidemic tbf!)
Vitihno 8 (in the opposition half, 4 in ours. The guy has flair and trickery and is dangerous, but keep him away from our defence!)
O'Shea 7
Ekdal 4 (I'm a fan, but I can only say it as I saw it!)
Assignon 7 (very promising debut)
Berge 4 (dross)
Ramsey 4 (more dross)
Brownhill 4 (and yet more dross today!)
Oderbert 7
Amdouni 4 (file with the dross group)
Foster 6 (meh)

Esteve 8 (looks a player)
JBG 6
Fofana 8 (a class above the others and suddenly we looked a little bit threatening!)

Fulham are well drilled and competent, but nothing more and yet (once again!) we are the better team for 20 minutes and then concede an utterly awful goal (actually 2!) to a team we are literally dominating! Then we suddenly start playing absolutely crap!! It's ridiculously frustrating and it happens virtually every game. How we pulled it back to 2-2 says as much about how average Fulham really are as about how good we were. They should have been out of sight, but we clung on and dug in, the substitutions definitely helped just for once and we got something I genuinely didn't think we deserved. At 80 minutes I'd have actually sacked VK for the first time in the entire season because we weren't just losing, we were bloody awful. I love the guy, but hell fire, if we carry on playing like that how on earth can we defend him?

[quoonbeatz]

Stolen a point today and the frustration is that Fulham are absolute toss, start like we played the last 20 mins and we'd have beaten them. The first 70 was the worst home performance fr a Burnley team in the Premier League. Started ok but another ridiculously soft goal from a corner meant all 11 heads dropped and there's no one thereto pick them back up. You can tell its a confidence thing but the levels of applications and effort hust weren't there from some. Pure apathy round the whole ground as soon as the first went in.

Trafford 5 nowhere for the 1st, even more nowhere for the second which made it easy. Slow slow slow distribution.

Assignon 7 decent debut, looked assured, beaut of a left foot cross for our first

O'Shea 5 never really got to grips with their striker

Ekdal 4 outpaced for the second and wasn't great otherwise

Vitinho 5 not a left back but no lack of effort. He just doesn't know what to do with the ball half the time.

Berge 6 only one to try getting on the ball in midfieldbut an absolute dearth of options in front of him meant going backwards half the time

Brownhill 4 has to get at least one of his attempts on target

Ramsey 3 chasing the game like an u10s player at times, looked way off the pace

Odobert 6 did well for the equaliser but hardly did ant of the for the previous 90 mins and was guilty of trying too hard at times

Amdouni 3 appalling

Foster 5 worked hard, not much else

eSteve 7 looks decent, puts a good weight on his passing

Fofana 7 the switch to 2 up top was the key to getting a point, two impacts off the bench in successive games

Gudmundsson 6 vast improvement on Ramsey and Amdouni as he actually moved about and wanted the ball

A point isn't much use to us if we want to stay up so considering that, the fact Fulham could have bagged a hatful today shows how far off it we are.

The team that ended, bar the fullbacks, needs to start the next one.

[jlup1980]

VK is a lucky man tonight. A disgraceful first half but we got out of jail thanks to Trafford making a few saves. The new lads looked positive but there are more questions than answers. The set piece coach clearly needs to be sacked. Their goal was the set piece goal we've been trying to score all season. We aren't capable of executing it at the right end and can't even defend against it in our own box. A shambles. Where do we go from here?!

Trafford 5 - poor first half but kept us in it
Assignon 7 - positive (+1 for the assist)
O'Shea 6 - stuck at it when left totally exposed by our non existent midfield
Ekdal 3 - his worst performance in a Claret shirt
Vitinho 3 - not a left back, a liability
Brownhill 3 - arguably his worst ever performance
Berge 3 - where the hell was he playing?
Ramsey 3 - we've been sold a duffer here. He's half a yard behind the play at all times. Utter garbage.
Amdouni 4 - ineffective out wide, tried in the middle, but in a torrid vein of form
Odobert 7 - our only real bright spark
Foster 3 - looked like the Foster of 12 months ago

Esteve 7 - looked nervous but grew into the second half
JBG 6 - does the basics well and that stands out in a team as abject as ours
Fofana 8 - looks a handful, direct and positive, gets in the right areas. Has to start.

[AlargeClaret]

An absolute horror show they should have been out of sight , great from “ foo foo” but don’t be fooled by our performance

Trafford 5- ok but very poor on 2nd
Assignon 6- we just might have a proper wing back
O'Shea -5 he was actually ok but is no prem player
Ekdal 4- sleeping again and slow as a Blackpool donkey
Vitinho 5- some decent movement but horrible passing
Brownhill 5- plays like he’s in a crap team…didn’t want it enough
Berge 5- slothful and overrun especially 1st half
Ramsey 4- looks total out of his depth
Odebert 6- drifts out of games , can’t defend BUT an occasional danger
Amdouni 4- awful , lost possession , duels and no passion
Foster 6- little service but a danger

Gudmundsson na
Fofana 8 looks a great loan
Estève 6 nervy start looks good

[SalisburyClaret]

Trafford 7 as usual, kept us in the game, not at fault for the goals but he’ll be blamed for everything

Assignon 7 excellent debut and cracking cross

O'Shea 7 Getting better

Ekdal 4 poor
Vitinho 6 some good, some awful. Not getting a reserve left back is criminal

Brownhill 6 ok

Berge 7 Good work in defence

Ramsey 3 Just awful

Odebert 7 always a threat

Amdouni 4 pointless

Foster 7 worked hard and great ball out from their corner

Gudmundsson 6

Vitinho 6 - limited ability at this level but at least he tried
Berge 5 - ok
Brownhill 3 - woeful, that throw in was embarrassing
Ramsey 3 - did he even touch the ball?
Amdouni 3 - lazy b@stard … if he never plays for us again it won’t bother me
Odobert 7 - flashes of brilliance
Foster 5 - great for first 10 mins then struggled

Fofano 9* - energy, skill, power, pace and two goals … has to start at Liverpool
Esteve 7 - decent debut, looks massive
JBG 5 - better than Ramsey

Ekdal - 3 I wonder if he’s woken up from his nightmare today. Rightly hooked
O’Shea - 5 Slightly better than Ekdal but another who ball watches and lets the ball drift over his head.
Vitinho - 3 We all know he’s not the best RB…he’s an even worse LB
Ramsey - 3 No idea how he gets a start when we’ve Massengo on the bench
Berge - 5 Keeps getting played in the wrong position. Our best midfielder that plays most of the game at CH
Brownhill - 3 Absolutely stealing a living at the minute and he’s the captain of my side
Odobert - 5 Struggles with the defensive side of his role and left us overloaded on that side but did up his game and put in a great low cross for the second goal
Amdouni - 3 Rubbish and that’s being kind. Should be nowhere near the starting 11
Foster - 5 Not his best game but still tries unlike Zeki who struts about thinking he’s better than everyone else

Esteve - 6 Solid debut and should be in the team for next week
JBG - 3 Love Johan but his time is nearly up
Fofana - 8 Completely changed the dynamics of the game. Certain starter next week….surely

JBG 3! Come on, at least watch the 2nd goal back

[SalouClaret]

Trafford - 6. Awful for the 2nd goal but kept us in the game with some good saves.

Assignon - 7. His passing was sometimes wayward but looked solid enough and a great assist.

O’Shea - 5.

Ekdal - 5

Vitinho - 6

Ramsey - 3. Anonymous. Waste of money.

Berge - 6. Better in the 2nd half.

Brownhill - 4. Not his best game.

Odobert - 6

Amdouni - 3. He can't be bothered. He's clearly already given up and is probably looking for a move away already in the summer. Zero effort. Awful.

Esteve - 6 Solid debut and should be in the team for next week
JBG - 3 Love Johan but his time is nearly up
Fofana - 8 Completely changed the dynamics of the game. Certain starter next week….surely

Massengo N/A This lad should be given some more game time as he is a baller
Brunn Larsen N/A No time

JBG rated the same as Amdouni and Ramsey? Were you at the game?

JBG 5

Ok I may have been slightly harsh on JBG. I did say I love him but he is not the answer to our problems. We’ve had some wonderful times with him but like I said I think his time with us is coming to an end.

[Murger]

Trafford - 5. A weak goalkeeper
Assignon - 6. A solid enough debut. An improvement on Vitinho.
O’Shea - 5. Dogger.
Ekdal - 4. A bigger pile of dogger
Vitinho - 5. Tries but just not good enough.
Berge - 6. The pick of the midfield.
Brownhill - 3. An absolute joke of a performance.
Amdouni - 3. What a waste of a shirt. Wouldn’t be upset to never see him again.
Ramsey - 3. Weak as gnats ****.
Odebert - 5. At least tries to make something happen.
Foster - 6. Tried but nothing happened for him.

Fofana - 8. Should’ve started the game for Amdouni, or at least been on from half time. Looked like he gave a ****.
JBG - 6
JBL - N/A
Esteve - 6. A couple of sloppy moments but looked decent.
Massengo - N/A

Trafford 5 weak but made some text book saves.
Assignon 7 good debut
O'Shea 7
Ekdal 4 slow
Vitinho 4
Brownhill 5
Berge 6 play him more forward FFS
Ramsey 3 because you can't give 0
Odebert 5
Amdouni 3
Foster 7 tried but fire service.

Gudmundsson 6
Fofana 9 mom
Estève 7 promising.

[RHansburyEsq]

Trafford 5 some good, some poor
Assignon 7 good debut. +1 for the assist
O'Shea 6 solid
Ekdal 4 a torrid first half
Vitinho 6 the not his fault our abject recruitment leaves him out of position
Brownhill 5 not one of his best games
Berge 5 not one of his best games
Ramsey 3 looks well out of his depth for the time being and should be frankly no where near the team
Odebert 6 makes things happen
Amdouni 3 I’ve been willing him to do well but today was last straw. With Ramsey was like 9 men at times.
Foster 6 not his best day but one or too moments

Gudmundsson 6 far more assured but that he is an improvement at his stage of his career says everything
Fofana 7 got to start
Estève 6 dodgy back pass aside he looked like he might be an upgrade

If I was a Fulham fan I would be absolutely gutted. They should have wrapped things up by the hour. Baffling team selection. Heads dropped alarmingly and no leadership. After previously standing by Kompany I found myself questioning whether actually he’d lost the team completely. I had a word with myself and obviously the fact we got the draw shows there is some resemblance of fight there. Doesn’t hide the fact we were appallingly bad for so much of the game though.

[Luppy]

Trafford - 6 - possibly partly at fault for 2nd goal but kept the score down after that

Assignon - 6 - promising
O'Shea - 6 - stuck at it
Ekdal - 3 - a shocker
Vitinho - 3 - a shocker

Berge - 5 - whatever the experiment of his position was it didn't work - but he kept going
Brownhill - 3 - absolutely dire, and will never be a captain
Ramsey - 3 - If I could give him less I would. He's garbage - utter garbage

Amdouni - 3 - Another shocking perrormance
Foster - 5 - some nice touches but on his own
Odabert - 7* - the only bright spark in a shocking afternoon

JBG - 6 - the legs may not be as quick but he's still as good a passer of the ball as we have.
Esteve - 6 - solid enough
Fofana - 7 - what a home debut

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Trafford 4 how much longer do we have to endure him.
Assigning 6 - a full back who can cross hooray.
O’Shea 4 same old
Ekdal 4 awful
Vithinio 3 horrific at right back so let’s get him on other side
Brownhill 3 captain quiet
Berge 4 poor
Ramsey 3 weak as p&ss.
Odobert 5 least a bit of effort.
Foster 4 poor again
Amdouni 3 once again absolutely woeful and showed zero interest when being plonked on right wing.

Thank god for the new signings that had relegation and manager sacking written all over it. The kind of game under Dyche we’d have got crowd onside early on and won. Today was like watching a county championship cricket match.

No idea anymore on Kompany’s selections or tactics.

[burnley007]

Trafford 5 Nowhere near a leader.
Assignon 7 looks promising, we'll sharp coach that positivity out of him.
O Shea 6 solid
Ekdal 5 not good enough
Vitinho 6 given a tough task, if only we had a f*king left back!
Ramsey 3 absolutely appalling. Loan him out or anything, I was more involved in the game
Berge 7 played about 6 positions
Brownhill 4 did he play???
Odobert 6 looked bright, but anonymous for the 1st hour
Foster 7 worked, but lacks support
Amdouni 5 I like him, but he's not in the right team.

Subs:
Esteve 6 -Solid debut
Gudmundsson 6 made a difference, geeing up the team
Fofana 8 a real livewire
Bruun Larsen na
Massengo what was the point???

Kompany 3 got all the decisions wrong.

[Dark Cloud]

Ok I may have been slightly harsh on JBG. I did say I love him but he is not the answer to our problems. We’ve had some wonderful times with him but like I said I think his time with us is coming to an end.

I agree re JBG. I said to the guy next to me that our idea of retrieving a lost cause with 10 minutes remaining against a team looking comfortable and with us playing crap, was to bring on an ageing "has been"! I have loved him over the years, but crikey, he's not the player he once was and he's not the answer when we're in a huge hole! (And yet he was definitely an improvement on Ramsey!!!)

[Leisure]

Ramsey 3 absolutely appalling. Loan him out or anything, I was more involved in the game

Had to laugh at this!

[roperclaret]

I’ve suggested this before Tony, I honestly don’t think you should start this thread until Sunday. There’s too many emotions about an hour after the games finished for objective scores
