Fulham Focus

Fulham have won a Premier League game!

Yes it was 1-0. And yes our opponents were tame Tigers rather than being capable of much mauling. But was it more convincing than it might seem on paper?

Join Kish, Sarge and Morgs as they try to work whether we should all be Arbeloa In after a Fulham win

How good were King, Charles, Berge and Bassey?

How on earth did King, Iwobi and Garcia miss?

Did our dominance in the stats suggest this game was genuinely a turning point?

Did Alvaro Arbeloa clapping the Hammy End mark something important?

And with 'Frank Lampard's Coventry' next up, should the Fulham faithful be confident we'll pull ourselves out of early season relegation panic stations

All that and more on this edition of Fulham Focus

It's been less than 100 days since Alvaro Arbeloa succeeded Marco Silva as Fulham manager, but after a capitulation at Ipswich we find ourselves bottom of the Premier League

Is it too early for fans to have made up their mind about his leadership?

Were the subs really to blame for our passive surrendering of the lead on Saturday?

Should he lead us into our next two relegation 6 pointers against Hull and Coventry?

And how much of the blame for our current mess is on squad building rather than tactical and game management?

Join Kish, Sam and Stuart as they pick over the bones of another painful weekend and look ahead to a massive one on the horizon in this (worryingly alarming 6 games into the season!) edition of Fulham Focus

If you'd told most Fulham fans after the shambles of Palace that we'd get a point from Liverpool and Man Utd we might well of taken it

But after Matheus Cunha offered the latest dagger at the death for the visitors at Craven Cottage that game almost felt like a loss

So why did Fulham sit off and invited United into the game after going ahead?

Were the subs and switch to 5 at the back to blame?

Did bright attacking moments from King and Iwobi show that they were there for the taking?

And have we seen enough to truly believe the Whites can get their season up and running with three massive fixtures when we return from the international break

Join Dylan, James and Kish as they cheer heroics from Leno and Bassey, boo Lisandro Martinez and salute the Hammersmith End squirrel on this edition of Fulham Focus

We all feared the worst, but just when you think you're out, Fulham find a way to pull you back in again!

Join Kish, Sarge and Dylan as they reflect on a 0-0 draw at Anfield that seemed like so much more and answer key questions like:

Is David Affengruber the answer to our prayers at RCB?

Will we be able to hide how good Shea Charles is to keep him all to ourselves?

Is Dominik Szoboszlai still sliding after being sent to the shops by Josh King?

Did Alvaro Arbeloa show he has the pragmatism required to thrive in the Premier League?

And will this be a turning point in our season, with two games this week to try and build on that performance in?

What the ***ing hell was that?!

On and off the pitch Fulham's 3-2 loss to Palace was pretty panic inducing

Whether it's poor defensive structure and individual errors, or the Hammersmith End boo-ing off the players, everything seems a little chaotic for just 3 games into the season

So what went wrong? And can Alvaro Arebloa fix it with ominous fixtures against Liverpool and Man Utd next up?

Join Kish, Sarge and Dylan as they discuss all that and look for some reasons to be cheerful after a dismal defeat (mainly Josh King tbh) on this edition of Fulham Focus

The buzzword this summer at Fulham was 'change'. Change of manager, change of system, change of players. Yet didn't Sunderland away feel remarkably similar to away day frustrations in recent years?

Where was the much vaunted press and personality hinted at in Alvaro Arbeloa's first outings as manager?

Why are we still so blunt in attack, failing even to get a shot on target here?

How are we still reliant on players struggling to deal with physical requirements of this system and the Premier League?

And what on earth can we do about it this week, before the transfer window closes and fellow early season strugglers Crystal Palace come to the Cottage next weekend?

Join Kish, Wiggo and Morgan as they share their coping strategies for the boredom and despair associated with our showing at the Stadium of Light and discuss whether there is any light at the end of the tunnel after our drab showing in this edition of Fulham Focus

An inauspicious start to the Alvaro Arbeloa era at Craven Cottage had us all fearing the worst, but after Fulham dug in to keep things competitive against Chelsea how are we all now feeling about the season ahead?

Join Kish, Baldo and Producer Don as they relive a chaotic West London Derby and take the temperature ahead of games against Wimbledon and Fulham

Was this Josh King's coming of age moment?

How worried should we be about our wide open defence?

Can Berge and Iwobi reliably hold down the midfield against PL opposition?

And in Gonzalo Garcia have Fulham finally found their long term starting striker?

All that and some much needed Enzo Fernandez slander on this edition of Fulham Focus

After 4 years of Premier League continuity, Fulham enter the 2026-27 Premier League season as one of the league's biggest question marks

Is Alvaro Arbeloa the Real deal?

Can you win anything (or avoid relegation/qualify for Europe) with kids?

Who will step up to replace the goal scoring exploits of Raul Jimenez and Harry Wilson?

What has been our biggest off season upgrade? (spoiler: it's probably the Hammersmith End toilets)

Who remains our biggest weakness?

And will our possession and press make up for some defensive frailties in pre-season?

Join Kish, Wiggo and Dylan as they share their hopes and fears ahead of a new campaign and preview our Monday night season opener in the West London Derby vs Chelsea

New season, new manager, new Fulham?

After being let down by a different team in white bottling it this summer, your Focus faves were ready to be left waiting until late this transfer window for excitement in the form of transfers or kit releases...

Only for Fulham to surprise us all by getting two of each done relatively early by their standards!

So after we've finished drooling over that away kit, what do we make of the Spanish revolution Alvaro Arbeloa is bringing to the banks of the Thames?

Join Kish, Sarge and a returning Matt Baldwin as they try to work out if going all in on young Spanish lads is going to fire us to glory or leave us vulnerable to disaster

We knew it was coming but it doesn't mean it won't still hurt!

Join Sam and Kish as they enlist the help of the entire Fulham Focus family to look back on Marco Silva's 5 year reign at Fulham Football Club

Is it the right time to part ways? Does the manner and destination of his departure sour things slightly? What were the most memorable moments? And where does he rank in the pantheon of Fulham managers?

They then (42:27) get the latest murmurings from the managerial rumour mill as Focus contributors past and present try to work out who should be next in the SW6 dugout

Is Kieran McKenna the right man or too much of a risk? Are names like Slot, Glasner and Amorim a total waste of time? Could we wait for Poch after the World Cup? And are links to some former villains in Frank and, well, Frank simply taking the piss?
