People moaning about crosses, please explain how you would go through the 10 buses parked in the centre.

Stretch them by passing and moving. The Fulham players know exactly what we are doing. Pass the ball wide and then hopeful cross
 
There's only been two attacks through the middle in this entire game

And Fulham only scored one of them.
Both on the break when numbers were short. Fulham are far too compact to try it through the middle too often. We won't catch them on the break

Yes it would be nice to see them try it, but breaking them down through the middle is less easier than playing wide
 
Thought we were going to try something different then, but phew there was an aimless cross
 
This. And this for the Stoke game as well.

We should be capable of breaking down these teams though, or at least showing some variation by crossing sometimes and attacking through the middle on other occasions.
 
Why does NOBODY want to shoot around the 18 yard box? If we had Ronaldo he'd have cracked at least half a dozen shots at them cutting inside. If there's no pass on just f'n shoot.
 
We've created loads of half-chances.
That's what we do, and we don't put those.
 
Riise, Riether, Burn and Heitinga...all woeful on the ground and we insist on playing crosses
 
Now, anyone who's giving out about the crosses should be able to see there. There's no other option when RVP has his back to goal, with 8 white shirts around him, he has to play it back to a wide area. It's either that or lose the ball.
 
Now the Fulham players are feeling sorry enough for us that they are knocking some of our crosses goal-wards themselves
