We could have made the last few mins less nervy by getting the third goal but all in all a very solid job done away from home by #FFC Some intriguing tactical moves by Marco in #WOLFUL too. Will be back with a few thoughts on that before the big game this weekend 🔜

Fulham seemingly matching up 5ATB for #WOLFUL 👀 👀 👀 I’m so interested by this. Presume it means a CB can follow Cunha around proactively

Will the flexible usage of Wolves talisman Matheus Cunha require Fulham to think on their feet tactically in #WOLFUL tonight? 🇧🇷 Read more in my pre-match thread 👇

It’s MATCH DAY 🖤🤍 And because I’m drafting this on my way to work here’s a pithier than usual ‘one thing I’ll be watching’ for #WOLFUL 👀 *spoiler alert* it’s predictably about Matheus Cunha…

Is Tuesday night, Muniz time? 🤔 Given that we’ve muddled along alternating STs this season I’m taking the appearance of this stellar ‘U23 Goals per 100 touches’ data from @datamb.bsky.social to be a statistical sign Rodrigo should get the nod vs Wolves

Have Palace shown Wolves and United how to beat Fulham with 5ATB? Discussed that on this week’s @fulhamfocus.bsky.social pod - but was also happily distracted by a trivia challenge! Do give us a listen 👇 pod.link/1326794467/e...

Fulham’s most common passing combos in #FULCRY were: Andersen ➡️ Bassey = 26 Bassey ➡️ Andersen = 24 The most frequent combo not involving a defender was Raul to Iwobi with just 5 More on how Palace shut us down in my full match thread 👇

I hope we’re just saving ourselves for United in the cup because make no mistake, Fulham got bullied in #FULCRY A below-par day and an example of the model to unsettle and nullify us with 5ATB Let’s break it down and hope Amorim can’t replicate Glasner! 🤞 🧵 1/10

Absolutely no complaints when it comes to the result in #FULCRY Fulham limited to basically 0 chances and frankly bullied by an aggressive Crystal Palace side today 🤦‍♂️ Some analysis of Glasner showing the blueprint for how to use 5ATB to unsettle and nullify #FFC 🔜

It’s MATCH DAY! 🖤🤍 You can check out my full pre-game #FULCRY thoughts in the thread below 👇

One thing I’ll be watching… 👀 #FULCRY edition! As a ‘tactics guy’ it’s easy to see every game via pressing triggers, progression plans and final third patterns But sometimes watching football is simply about enjoying matchups… Here’s one that excites me today👇

How did Marco Silva exploit Forest’s reluctance to break their 5ATB structure, overrun their midfield and take control of #FULNFO? Follow the link below to check out my full video breaking this down over on YouTube ⬇️ youtu.be/AK6ZjNSnNHc?...
