Josh King - deserved an England call up after being Fulhams most consistent player this season, you forget his young age. He will be a star in the future, lets hope he stays at Fulham for a couple of years and then makes the big move like a Bellingham when he is ready for the top

Arbeloa, poor in game decisions again, Team on paper far better than relegation fodder but they are not players suited to a relegation scrap (ESR when on gives Berba Ruiz vibes from 13/14). I am sure he will get at least the Hull match but if they lost that or even draw its tough

Fulham - some promising signs: Charles, Larssen looking good, Palacios better and King is the king. But looked very poor defensively. Likely 0pts after 5 so AA needs to hope for best after that but ultimately it was always going to be tough and not helped by ill suited players

Garcia and Palacios are very exciting signings, hopefully they can adapt to the PL. Arbeloa will be very pleased and hopefully the start of a glut of new signings to come - couple of back up wingers, additional box to box midfielder, holding midfielder and at least one CB.

Let's hope Gonzalo Garcia breaks the usual trend of Fulham record signings being flops or crocked. Fulham cannot afford for someone at that price being a duffer.

Early thoughts on Arbeloas Fulham on yesterdays match, 1. We need players asap (CB, CMs, R/LW and CF), 2. Players not suited to style Andersen, Tete and Smith Rowe, No.6 position key as are box to box midfield players. JKA and youngsters looked good but majority will need loans.

Fulham - If they have a poor start and fighting relegating all season it will be on the slow transfer policy of Khans/Ali Mac like the yo yo years, the new manager clearly needs help to bolster a weakened side (need a striker, two wingers and couple of midfielders) to stand still

Kevin Keegan RIP, First FFC manager I remember, my dads hero. Much loved figure and will be much missed.

Tuchel - these were the situations that he was meant to make England better and he turned into Southgate and let game drift away from them by not taking the momentum and giving it to Argentina. Stupid subs and very expensive management errors. Euro 2028 last chance for Kane etc.

Alvaro Arbeloa - as previously said a high risk, potentially high reward choice for Fulham, his intent to build a more youthful side is laudable but has to be evolution rather than revolution. But more importantly has to get a solid start to get everyone positive and confident.

Arbeloa to Fulham - exciting/ interesting but definitely a risk given his lack of experience coaching. Hopefully he is surrounded by experienced heads / trusted coaches and can create a more youthful Fulham team which can build on the very solid foundations set up by Marco Silva.

Just listened to @jackellyffc interview with Tony Khan, very useful to do and it appears it will be a more regular thing between them which is useful for both sides and us as fans. Jack did a great job just letting his interviewee speak and give full answers.

In terms of those mentioned for the Fulham job, I think Kieran McKenna makes the most sense (same style as Marco) but will FFC pay release clause and will he want to jump ship after promotion with Ipswich. Thomas Frank is pragmatic choice but will he want to sour brentford

Marco Silva - thanks for the memories, turned the club back into a stable PL side (on the pitch at least). Certainly top 3 with Tigana and Roy in my time supporting club. Hopefully enjoys time back in Portugal with the family. Pressure on Khans to make correct call as big summer.

Gold Dancer - such a bad look for Paul Townend and sport, the horse made such a jarring error and it all happened so quickly but clearly the horse was not right. Love NH racing but those type of obvious injuries (fortunately very rare) are so depressing and put you off the sport.
Liam Rosenior - easy appointment for Chelsea hierarchy to make. Given his connection to FFC I want him to do his best after Wednesday but their fans still think they are a football club and should get the likes of Ancelotti, Klopp etc rather than a footballer trading house.

So they will like the last few managers get them to say 4th but well off title winners so not good enough by the standards of Russia blood money soaked successful years and the fans put pressure on so easy to sack another manager than question the model.
