    Fulham @ Tottenham 12/26

    Not sure what happened with the other attempt and why it double posted an empty thread, hopefully a moderator can clean that up. Sorry about that.

    This is a big game for Fulham and a real chance to get their first away win of the season. Tottenham have improved under Redknapp, but they still aren't that great of a team and we will be getting them right before Harry hits the transfer window, which is to our advantage because you know Harry will make a splash. While I hope we can break through and get a win, a point here is good as well. In fact I think anything from the next two games this weekend is a bonus going into January where we face 4 teams that are in the bottom half.

    Hopefully the team are focused on Tottenham and aren't licking their chops at getting a crack at an undermanned and out of form Chelsea squad.

    Solid point... both goalies weren't tested much, but came up big when they had to... it'd be nice to see Andy Johnson finish a chance like he had late, it looks like the team has trouble with first touches all over the field... either trying to set up a shot or dribble by someone... always barely missing that last little touch of class.

    huge point for Fulham, as they took 4 off of Spurs this year. Keep in mind last season we got crushed at Spurs 5-1. Now we get a crack at Chelsea who will be undermanned and anything we get from that game will be additional bonus in the month of December. Our January schedule is much more favorable on paper.

    It was also a big point give that our two (arguably) best players were out, Hangeland and Bullard.

    Anyone hear anything on Bullard's injury?

    We really need another striker alongside Johnson, as Zamora is just not a starting forward. Benny McCarthy is rumored to want out of Blackburn, that may not be a terrible idea.
