There's only one F in Fulham

Fulham 5 West Ham 0 

Luckily I was away in Edinburgh for this one. Clearly the Spurs win took a lot of energy from the players and the side never looked at it for this. A Ward-Prowse free kick saved and a Bowen shot early doors promised better. But once the defence sat too deep and allowed Jimenez to score with a header it was all over. Only Harry Wilson's goal was a great effort, the rest saw some pretty horrific defending. The fifth was a simple ball over the top and Sunday league stuff. 

Benrahma had one decent effort at the keeper late on, but it was a dismal day all round.The ill Alvarez was badly missed and the five extra games in Europe seem to have left the players exhausted. This was a game too far and we require much better against Freiburg on Thursday. Nurse, the screens.
