Just got back from building a snowman.

Must have just missed Jays first goal.

Hows the rest been?

Nobody can complain about the effort (and pace) being shown by Vydra

Interesting to see his player ratings from certain people on here later

He's played well, as they all have, however the standout performer has to be Jay, and the MOTM vote should be an easy choice.

2 goals and an assist, that's what they call impacting the game.

What a treat today. Fulham were poor but we capitalised. Not often you see us scoring 3!

Well played Clarets.

Fulham were shocking.

Fulham are pants

Effin fantastic performace today. Everyone played their part.

Big mention to me for the unsung heroes - BPF- Long - Pieters - Stephens - Vydra. All fantastic and in some ways equally as good a performance as Thursday.

Crikey, don't say that. Two backup lineups don't forget.

Clean sheet for BPF. Congrats

He's not going to change the starting 11 from Liverpool

And through clenched teeth, have to agree

And I agree too - a very good option from the bench. Vydra I feel still needs more time to get his confidence back. He created chances for himself.

They had 2 mammaries on the bench with Aereola and Tete

Great result, very good performance as well.

Not taking anything away, but their second string isn't any good is it. They are finding it hard, but if they get injuries or suspensions, they could fall off a cliff.

Our second string however, goes from strength to strength. So good to get so many players back.

Did well i must say now Fulham looked very poor but our 2nd eleven were so much better than theirs

So weird to see footballers leaving the field covered in mud!!! Haven't seen that in bloody years!!

NickBFC · Post by **NickBFC** » Sun Jan 24, 2021 4:32 pm

A really entertaining and deserved win. Thought everyone was outstanding - the desire, tempo and aggression all over the pitch was spot on. Gives us a real spring board for Villa now.

claretgimmer · Post by **claretgimmer** » Sun Jan 24, 2021 4:34 pm

Pitch was crap by modern standards but we tried to play more football today than hoofball and it worked, well done lads. UTC

Top result and performance. It's a long time since we made so many changes and still had nine full internationals in our starting line up. Fantastic to see.

Mods take a look in the mirror!

Don't spoil another great day for Clarets.

Naughty Madge pleased to celebrate yet another great win, on our way to Wembley.

Up the Clarets

Against Villa Dyche must drop Barnes for Rodriguez

Fulham will struggle to stay up playing on a pitch like that every other game. It will get worse up to Feb and players get tired and injuries playing in those conditions.

Hmm! not sure about that, why would he drop the guy who won and converted the winning penalty at Anfield, if he's going to change anyone in the forward line I'd suggest it should be Wood, but I do agree we should try and found a place for Jay against Villa, his confidence must be sky high after scoring a brace and making another, and if he wanted to stake a claim for a starting berth that's the way to do it.

IanMcL · Post by **IanMcL** » Sun Jan 24, 2021 7:52 pm

That is a good point NNN. A poor pitch is unhelpful, when you need confidence. .Leeds pitch is crap too, although they are buying one from Spurs!

We'll reserve a relegation spot for them!

Strangely there line up cost over 100m. Didn’t appear to be much talent for the value
