We probably need one more box to box midfielder and it wouldn't be bad for the championship. Then we need to get the wide players because we will need at least 3 of them. If these reported signings all come off, then I can see a midfield three of Winks - KDH - Cairney for the upcoming season. If Maresca goes 3-4-1-2, then I see Cairney being the more advanced midfielder. If that ends up being the case, I don’t really see any proper wingers coming in. We may go for players like Chair for example, who are more versatile, could easily fit into a 3-4-1-2, but could move out to the left-wing if we do change formation. Joel Piroe would be of similar nature, mainly a striker, but has played wide right for Swansea a few times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll play a dynamic 4-2-3-1 system but I maybe wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 28 June 2023 Share Posted 28 June 2023 Thought he was brilliant some years ago and Fulham fans rate him highly. They have the option of extending his contract another year and I expect they will, as he played 32 games last season. Suspect this is his agent talking to get him a better/longer deal. Imagine it was always Winks we were most serious about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d get rid of Faes and get in someone new, someone preferably left footed or someone with experience of playing on the left, Ronnie Edwards being a fair example. I’m just not sure a four with Coady partnering Souttar will work, especially if we continue with a high line. Teams will just sit back, then exploit their lack of pace with counter attacks. Coady in the middle of a back three, with more mobility and pace around him just seems more ideal to me, if that means leaving Souttar out, so be it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 30 July 2023 Share Posted 30 July 2023 Apparently he’s won more man of the matches (votes by Fulham fans) over the last few seasons than any other player. He is clearly well liked there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blur Posted 12 August 2023 Share Posted 12 August 2023 Starting for Fulham as captain today. Seen some murmurs of Cairney being an option if we wanted additional cover but I think we can pretty much rule it out now. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
