Happy with that. Goals, Diaby showing promise, clean sheet, Olsen vindicated  ;D

Good night, gents.

Daughter asleep with 5 minutes to go, so it was like 2 victories.

Tielemans and Doug looked OK.

We need a player in forward areas that is not about running, but can put their foot on it, pick a pass and dictate a bit. Willian was exceptional second half for them, we could really do with someone like that in the final third.

Warnock who said the other day Harry Wilson had one of the best left foots in the league just missed a cracking chance with his left foot.

Warnock? Fair play to him being in a position to miss though at his age.

Just been woken up by the bin lorry. Was it worth it?

Depends. I was up anyway and watched it as an alternative to doing any work, but I think I’d be pissed off if I couldn’t now go home to bed.

Tielemans stood out I thought, uses the ball really well, Jaden Philogene had another decent game and nice finish from Diaby. More pluses than minuses.

My son’s first game - which he loved - so that was the real highlight.

I note that Olsen kept a clean sheet during his half. Has he suddenly become good or were Fulham just shite?

The latter. Didn’t have anything to do.

Always good to start them off with a win!
