Indeed, Forshaw cover for Phillips? There is no decent cover for Meslier. I don't expect a lot, but at least get the basics right. It's been another one of those nights, it happens, but there is a certain predictability to it.

I've said for a while Huggins is very impressive... I'm saying Summerville is one of the best young players I've seen in a while too

We really need to move on from Forshaw now. 18 months since his last game and constantly injured anyway. Why not develop Kenneh instead?

Thought he was sandwiched.

But great build up play

Now that we're all but safe we should be playing the likes of Huggins and Shackleton get them game time.

Struijk much improved second half, where's he playing?

Better team since the 55 minute mark. Why didn't we play like this first half?

One more and their collective arses will go, we handed it to them on a plate first half.

I've never seen what most have in Shack looks a little lightweight, think he still makes a good player down the line but needs to add a bit of bulk. Huggins is further along for me

We've got more than double Fulham's points total, so yeah pretty much. We only need two points now really.

He's never had a run of games to show what he can do. How many 90 mins has he completed?
