Fulham Forced Aside as Thoughts Turn to Tyneside…

Add comment December 28th, 2004

A solid 2-0 victory with goals from Henry and Pires.

If I could be arsed, I’d count up all the times that that’s occurred over the past couple of years.

This weekend, against Fulham, it signalled a return to business as usual. We weren’t outstanding, but we weren’t half bad either. Campbell, Lauren, Fabregas, and Henry were our stars.

Manuel Almunia made a very good save, aswell. He’s not doing too badly, and another clean sheet under his belt will only help his confidence to grow. Jens Lehmann, however, could become a target for Borrusia Munchunpronounceable if he doesn’t regain his starting place soon.

Looking ahead to the Newcastle game, I’d imagine that Ashley Cole will return in place of Gael Clichy. Mathieu Flamini might well displace a rested Cesc Fabregas, and Robin van Persie could get a start. He ought to: Dennis was pretty dire against Fulham.

Oh, and Patrick Kluivert is injured, so we’ll probably have the dubious pleasure of facing another 5-man midfield. Hurrah.
