Here’s Claudio Ranieri: “It was a good match. The first half was fantastic for us. We scored a goal and the perhaps we should have had a penalty. In the second half we tried to do our best but we lack experience. We had a free-kick with one minute to go and we put the ball into the box. Why? I shout: ‘Take the ball to the corner!’ We have to continue to fight. I am very happy with Ryan Babel. He made a very good first half. He needs more time to be fit. I am confident. I never lose my confidence about the team.” He’s quite chipper considering he’s just had a point swiped from his grasp in the dying seconds.
Graeme Sounness and Jamie Redknapp are tearing into Fulham’s defence for not defending the winning goal better. Perhaps Bryan could have done better to get in front of Winks but I still think the cross was an absolute peach. Bryan may well have scored an own goal if he’d got in front of him.
