    He is a good player but like so many of our forwards isn't the type to take the game by the scruff of the neck and look to directly influence it. Kulusevski, Johnson, Werner, Richarlison...all are capable of putting in good performances but not sure they can consistently perform to a high level...

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    Said it before, have no real confidence that any of our forward players outside Son (and even he isnt getting any younger)have the ability to produce the goods week in week out. They have ability but you wouldn't hang your hat on them turning up every week.

    Match Threads Fulham vs Spurs

    Midfield is such a key area in our system. If it doesn't turn up or just gets outworked, we are likely to get exposed quite badly. Bissouma was very good at the beginning of the season but do wonder if he is one who is able to maintain a high standard throughout the season or someone who has...

    Match Threads Spurs vs Palace

    Said this before we have some good forward players but think if the oppo are organised and disciplined, more often than not most of them can be contained and managed out the game.

    Find it difficult to form too much of a strong opinion of Solomon as he just hasn't played enough for us tbh. From what I have seen of him, he has something about him although not too sure its enough to he a regular starter. Seem to have thay initial burst of pace and can run/dribble and turn...

    Player Watch Player Watch: Ryan Sessegnon

    Looking at his stats at Fulham: - 16/17 season was 16 years of age in his first season with them and was involved in 25 games with 8 of those of the bench in the Championship. - 17/18 season was involved in 46 games with 1 appearance off the bench and they were promoted to the EPL. - 18/19...

    Beginning to wonder if him being fairly heavily involved in the Fulham first team between the ages of 16-18 when he was probably still physically developing has something to with his injury problems. Could be nothing in it and everyone develops at different rates but maybe in his case he...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    We are work in progress and results like today are not a total surprise to me. Overall it's been a good season so far however we were always going to hit bumps in the road. We are in the midst of building a squad but in the summer we need to be ruthless imo. Royal and Davies can do a job on...

    Need proper cover for him and Davies isn't it.

    Match Threads Spurs vs Wolves

    Not particularly surprised. We havent looked great in our last few games. The sharpness, intensity and pressure in our forward play just hasn't been there and have looked far too open defensively. Two very poor goals conceded today. We haven't got a forward who is going to give defenders...

    Pedro Neto

    Yep, said this last summer. There is no one in our attack that oppo teams would seriously be worried at the the thought of one of their defenders caught in one on one situations. I think we will look to address it in the summer and like you say if not Neto, has to be someone in that mould.

    Player Watch Player Watch: Brennan Johnson

    Was thinking this the other day....I know they are different kind of players and Johnson can obviously improve but in terms of technical ability, Palmer looks on a whole different level. Had the advantage of coming through at City where no doubt he was training with some top quality players but...

    Player Watch Player Watch: Brennan Johnson

    Couple of moments today where Porro and Maddison were clearly frustrated when they played the ball for Johnson to run onto but didn't seem as though he anticipated it and was caught on his heels. Early days and maybe a lack of confidence comes into play but does feel as through there's a fair...

    Match Threads Everton vs Spurs

    Do feel he can be a very good sub when looking to see out the game. Awkward to be up against, pretty good in the air and also knows how to use his body to win fouls.

    Match Threads Everton vs Spurs

    Didn't feel it was a particularly good performance from us however 2-1 up with a couple mins to see out massively disappointing to concede from a set piece and end up drawing the game. We had some tired legs out there towards the end and felt we were asking for trouble by looking to play...
