We thoroughly deserved to lose. All the folks who keep blaming the refs can shove their shit right back up their fat asses. Cannavaro, the little terrorist traitor, deserved his red card and there should have been another penalty when De Ceglie and another one of our players ran into Zamora in our box. And if we really deserved to win, how the hell could we concede four goals after getting an away goal so early in the match? This little crybaby activity regarding refereeing is partly why we are a horrendous club nowadays. Stop sugarcoating the issue. Stop being promoters of complacent football.
When are you guys going to learn that the sort of football we play will never get us anywhere? Fulham is a second-rate side, one that does play well at home, but isn't a spectacular entity by any means. They were even missing their fucking midfield general, Danny Murphy. They were even down 3-1 in the first leg and down 1-0 AFTER THE FIRST TEN MINUTES of the second leg, yet they STILL fucking won on aggregate. How can anybody who watched this match complain about the refereeing when we did absolutely nothing to warrant a result?
Some people just don't fucking get it. The problem with this club is that we have a board who has no idea what they're doing (yet is constantly defended), players who can't even do simple things like the pass the ball and potentially never could, and that we have managers who do not understand the modern game. We also have fans who don't understand the modern game either, but that is a side issue.
These utter idiots on the pitch have no idea how to protect a game, no fucking idea at all. The managers in this country believe that throwing more and more defensive midfielders on the pitch means increasing defensive stability even if every time they receive the ball they lose it, and some folks on this forum do too. They also think that clubs can play half-ass football all the time and expect to get through difficult (or even simple) European ties where aggregate scores come into play. And yes, they think they can sit back and defend the lead despite having a WHOLE FUCKING MATCH ahead of them. Well sorry but no, you're fucking retarded.
This brand of complacent, defensive, cautious, pussy football that we have been subscribing to since Capello took charge needs to be ethnically cleansed. It's time to start fielding players who have the technical ability to change games, throw away systems with two DM's who do NOTHING to protect the defense, and start acting like we need to win every game. This complacency crap has bit us in the ass several times in the past under different managers and that's party why we are in this position.
The solution? Remove the board, remove players who don't have the proper technical ability, and get a manager who understands the importance of keeping the ball and PLAYING TO WIN INSTEAD OF PLAYING NOT TO LOSE.
Special thanks to Cannavaro and folks who wanted him back here because they thought he was still a good player. You lot, including the board, of course, are very much to blame for this pathetic season. With Cannavaro returning for a free, they thought the defense could be brushed aside and that little fairies would protect our goal. Some voices claimed after Canna's first few performances that I was wrong and he was still a great defender, I said be patient, and I was criticized. How's that Canna form working out now for you? Does he still have it? Well sorry but no, you're fucking retarded.
And lastly, I think it is fantastic that Clint Dempsey, one of my favorite players, was the one to put us out. His goal was a moment of magic; almost like watching Del Piero with the ball. I'm extremely angry that this club has degenerated into a third-tier side, but that one moment was something special.
That Dempsey goal will teach the likes of bianconero and several others to shut their pie holes once and for all. Feel the pain, idiots. The American put your club out.
