every time I see our side on paper before a game it worries me. we look desperately short on quality throughout.

would like to see our full backs push forward a lot more today and give us some badly needed width.

midfield looks a bit of a basket case. I really dont rate delph or holman. hoping for a lot with stephen ireland. plenty of talent but little heart with him. bent I feel is likely to score but when gabby and himself play up top they never seem to gel.

worth league start for 26 years this commentator is saying. we really need a win.

Fulham always strong at home. Berbatov will be a huge test for our defence. Sidwell and Baird in midfield though so not too much to worry about there. Duff out is a positive.

Two good saves from Guzan in first couple of minutes. Berbatov is looking lively

I like KEA and Ireland being in midfield together, they work well.

That's my fear too. It's going to be a shit season if we aren't challenging as usual

The centre halves have to be a lot more alert here.
