FULHAM Despite some recent criticism of our centre backs, we are doing jolly well at winning battles in the air, as shown in this week's stats. We're actually in joint, top spot with the 'Jolly Green Giants' - http://www.whoscored.com/Regions/252/Tournaments/2
Stoke's a no brainer in that category. I can sum up their team philosophy in one sentence: "Let's get very, very tall players and try to score goals on long balls and set plays." The fact that we're even with Stoke is interesting. The other stat on that page, that we're fourth in the league in "top team ratings", just behind ManU and ahead of Spurs, is what caught my eye. I hope it lasts.
