    We always lose at home to Fulham.
    Be delighted if that’s not true tomorrow, but after our performance on Sat I’d be amazed if it isn’t.

    A win would be huge for us - just not optimistic at all.

    Not a shred of optimism either. Fulham may well tear us a new one. Oh dear.

    Don't worry we always give teams chances to score, so you have to take them.
    Tete in for Castagne and Wilson in for Willian.
    Strange Still No Diop, even on the subs bench. No Broja not on subs bench.
    Muniz seems to have recovered from his ankle injury.

    2 now!

    The perfect team for a team battling relegation to play.

    Things are looking worse and worse for Everton. I've had my eye on them for a while. They really are shit and haven't won since December.

    Marco Silva clearly not happy!

    From the BBC:

    Fulham just have not been in this at all and Marco Silva is not happy. We've just passed the 30-minute mark and he makes THREE changes already!

    Alex Iwobi, Sasa Lukic and Harry Wilson are the three taken off, with Adama Traore, Tom Cairney and Willian coming on.

    Well they are losing to Forest. It doesn't get much worse than that.

    3-0 now. Maybe he should have pushed the boat out and made 4 changes

    Football.

    That was the best first half performance since we've been back in the Prem. Simply outstanding.

    4pts deducted - earned them back in the space of a few days.

    Torrid from us in the first half, players on the beach!!! Marco right to sub 3 off at 33 minutes, could have been a few more off.
    2nd half was more like it, but missed so many chances.

    Wow - obviously I didn’t expect that!
    Superb first half - a dreadful setup by Fulham though, totally naive & suicidal formation to allow us to attack and the one and only way we are actually dangerous.

    2nd half was agonising - we are genuinely so bad at sitting on a lead. Just total Fulham domination of possession with a counter every 5-10 mins. Our set piece defending is appalling but got away with it today.

    A significant boost - we need 2-3 more wins - we might do it, but I’m not confident.
