    Fulham look so small and lightweight. Lots of players that are comfortable on the ball, but no organisation or physicality.

    Fulham's defence socially distancing nicely there.

    He's kind of stopped playing as a wingback, though. He's pushed up far more and isn't defending.
    It's working well going forward, but Fulham are getting in through the space he's leaving, albeit with no end product.
    Him and Digne are getting away with murder at the back because Fulham are ****.

    They are not getting away with it. They are forcing Fulham back. Could bring Holgate in at RB and go to a normal back 4

    I know it's a new defence, but they look like they've never met each other before.
    We were linked with him for about £30m last year and scouted him the year before that, apparently.
    Looks like a good decision not to pull the trigger on that one. He's been shocking.

    Any defence that makes Iwobi look like Arjen Robben reincarnated deserves to get relegated, frankly.

    This sums Fulham up. They've started this half quite well but you just know they'll give up a ridiculously simple goal any minute.

    Leftarse-Cheek and Mitrovic? Fulham might have a focal point now, I guess.

    Everton need to wake up. They've been pretty lethargic since the break.
    Sitting back and hoofing it to Calvert-Lewin doesn't seem like a great tactic for a full half. Might need a sub.

    You were right to exercise caution after your good start the season. Still very much a work in progress with some distance to go before you can challenge for the top 4.

    Looking forward to next Saturday when you'll have the chance to show your alledged superiority.

    Hang on....you've not won this one yet.

    If you ever needed a sign Fulham were destined for relegation, that was it. Horrific penalty attempt.
