A draw would be a good result. These are a level above the rest of the division. No reason we can't beat them. Jagielka marshalled Derby to a clean sheet at the Cottage earlier this season... Given their recent form it would be a shock if we can keep a clean sheet. We are clearly a better side away from home playing on the break and this will feel like an away game with Fulham dominating possession, so who knows?

Hull were absolutely woeful and we didn’t really get outta second gear however, the few times they did get into our box we looked all over the shop. Play like that at the back and Fulham will batter us. We need to play Lewis and Campbell from the Start, we can’t afford to have Brown miss chances then get punished up the other end.

Yeah I didn’t see the game but my Dad did and made a similar point re looking all over the shop when they did get in half decent positions.

Might suit us bit like WBA a team expecting to dominant gives us opportunity to counter. We always do shit against teams that sit deep and expect us to break them down and Fulham won’t do that.

Bit surprised by the replies Fulham are vastly superior to Albion and everyone else Still same approach as that night and you never know Be pleased with a draw myself then go and beat Cov They’re also prone to some weird results. They drop points in some strange games. Hopefully this is one! There is that On form, as they are right now, they look like they should get a record points haul Fact is they are just keep it themselves ahead courtesy of some poor results in amongst the thrashings

Won't define our season but expect us to put up a decent show. They put 7 past a team in a play off position so we know what they can do. Looking forward to it but won't be reaching for the Koolaid if we get beat.

Brown scored a nice goal but his all-round play as a centre forward was poor. He is still poor at controlling a ball, lacks composure and football intelligence. I can’t see him or D’Margio starting against Fulham. DWP, needs to be looked after, and throwing him in against Fulham will do him no favors. Tyrese is looking shaky but my preference would still be him and Fletch up top.

We had some reasonable attacking play away at Fulham, Doughty's pace worried them for example We simply couldn't keep them out as most sides have failed to do.

If we're to evolve we need better than Brown as he could and should of had a hatrick today!!!!

Fletcher and Campbell are going to be as static as always off the ball. I really like both of them and if they were in-form then I’d choose them, but they aren’t. I can see it being: Bonham Smith THB Jagielka Chester/Wilmot Tymon Allen Clucas Baker Ince Brown

He was also part of the initial build up play in our own half, then ran half of the pitch to get in the box, drift away from his man and yes, put away a good cross from Clucas.

Two thirds of a back 3 were making their debut and the other one is the worst player in the world ever apparently,so under those conditions I thought the defence did ok.Of course it is going to tougher against Fulham but a weeks tactical training and Wilmot back for Chester then it should be better. It amazes me how people have to magnify our shortcomings after a good away victory,just enjoy it.

We tend to be better against teams than don’t sit back and these certainly won’t. Keeping Mitrovic quiet will be key but he’s not their only goal threat. I can’t see them not scoring tbh so it’s imperative that we take any chances that come our way

Let’s not forget the back 3 had never played together before and 2 must have only trained once or twice so hopefully a few days training on shape will help. I’d go with Bonham Smith THB Jagielka Chester/Wilmot Tymon Clucas Baker Ince Fletcher Wright Phillips

Well yesterdays excellent performance has got me stirred to get tickets for this one and I have to say I really fancy us - a fired-up home crowd & bit of old-school Brit hostility wont go amiss either - yes, theyre a very strong side but if we turn in a West Brom style display we've got to be in with a shout.....

D'Margio is unlikely to start I'd have thought. He needs to be handled carefully.

Not a dig at our players/team but the form they're in I can see them taking us apart, they're a step above anyone in this league when they're on it imo.

+45 goal difference. Scored some great goals against Bristol City on Saturday. Would definitely take a draw.

What's a good result next week? Fulham are on fire There ready for a defeat getting a little cocky we could just be the team to give them a bloody nose if we play like we did today. What are you basing your 'getting a little cocky ' comments on ? They've smashed teams all season including rinsing us. Don't see any cockiness more hunger and ruthlessness.

Id love to a see our old team of ryan and co v Fulham ideally on a wet windy day sure to end i a red for mitrovich and tearrs Wilson and carvellho after being bounced from Wilko to huth to Ryan and a couple of additional welcomes from Whelan and Rory with Rick marauding around their back four threatening murder and mayhem sadly we don’t have this about us any longer but what a thought
