Ideally I would start

Southwood

Yiadom
Dann
Morrison
Rahman

Laurent
Drinkwater

Ejaria
Swift
Dele-Bashiru

Puscas


However I think VP will put Rafael straight back in and also Dann and Drinkwater probably won’t be fit enough so Holmes and Rinomhota (presuming he’s over the knock to his ankle) will replace them. If Rino is still sidelined then I would put Tetek in whereas VP would go for Halilovic.

Think that line up above is our strongest available atm if Dann and DD were fully fit

yes, though Holmes > Morrison for me.

Dann and Drinkwater prob aren't fully fit though. Even if so, wouldn't be keen on throwing them straight in against Fulham.

Bench would look something like

Rafael, Moore, Morrison, Rino, Hoilett, Tetek, Halilovic, Clarke which is fairly handy as well. Add in Joao, Azeez and McIntyre and we really should be ok this year.

As is the M4 near Slough, as is the Reading - Waterloo line for those who go that way and get off at Putney.

I wouldn`t take it if you paid me, i`m just hopeful that it doesn`t get too messy. a narrow defeat will give us hope there are better times ahead.

Fulham will be with out Kongolo, Carvalho and Tom Cairney and have a small doubt over Harrison Reed.

I reckon we’ll either get hammered or pull off a shock 2-2 draw. Tbh if they play how they can we’re doomed but as we know the Champ can be full of surprises at times. Hopefully, they’ll underestimate us and we’ll play out of our skins. Have always enjoyed my trips to the cottage but not always the results.

No Puscas!??

He better be injured.

If not it better work out for Pauno.

That is all, thanks.

Just unbelievable. Pretty much anything other than a win now and this may be indefensible for Pauno. Just when he seems to be regaining some confidence in the doubters.

Unbelievable, Puscas has played out of his skin for the last two games so he drops him and sticks a midfielder up top on his own.

And the same strategy worked so well at holding onto our 3-2 lead against QPR.

I know today is a bit of a free hit, but the reasoning behind it should be ‘interesting’

Best case scenario, Puscas is carrying a knock/recovering from a bug/had a few sleepless nights and Paunovic thinks he’s going to struggle to play more than 30 minutes or so. Better to have him available at the end when we might need a goal and when Fulham will be tired.

The other option is that Paunovic has a specific game plan, in which case it’s a huge gamble. But Fulham are a good side and that maybe gives him a bit of cover.
