Looked a bit shaky in the beginning when he let Pritchard in behind him, but otherwise can't fault him.
One interesting thing is how centrally he plays in posession.
Don't know if its a horrible night Its currently 32 here in SoCal with a nice breeze and not a cloud in the sky. Course, it always is.
Agree, thought it was great second half performance, to create four good chances and limit them to one in the second half was impressive, keep saying it but we are definitely the most talented team and squad this year.
Sess played so well! They only really had one chance and scored. Some of the passing moves were amazing. Still can get a lot better but we're doing the gritty stuff well which is important.

lol...
Agree about Sess. He learned a lesson with his card and does need to improve going forward but I wasn't nervious when he was defending.
Huddersfield are not the best of teams but 3 points and two goals away from home is a good result.
A performance with goals and three points against Milwall and we will be in the promotion race.

Sessignon was a revelation, very cautious first half but great touch and second half was the difference! Great result to grind out and some really nice play along the way.
Pleased for Cav. He's not had the greatest of starts but that goal will do wonders for his confidence.
I agree Tabby, with the start, but would expect that really for a young lad.
I thought he made 2 mistakes, I can remember, but then found his confidence.
He was an outlet going forward, just like his brother was.
Think he's got a bright future as well!
Sess took some unnatural positions when we had the ball but did well .
Our signings seem to be bedding in well .
Also have to mention our team spirit and togetherness and the amount of leaders we seem to have in mitro mawson arter its great to see
Well done Scotty Parker and the coaching team for the HT changes.
Also mature changes to close the game out in the end.
And also well done to young Stephen Sessegnon - despite getting an early yellow card handled Pritchard (a very good player) very well. Given a chance and took it.
Any wins great!
More like a typical Fulham win i.e dominate, make plenty of chances, let the opposition back in it when they should have been buried and only win by the odd goal.
I should be used to it after 57 years.
You have great forward players, you will win close games.
Saying that, we battered them most of the game
Sess did well to keep the ball in play for the 2nd goal too
Thought we should have won 3-0 or 4-0. Bad decisions and poor touches cost us, and the goal we conceded was from absolutely nothing.
That said, any 3 points away is a good 3 points. And we'll get cleaner as this new core plays more matches and the best XI comes together.

Indeed. Let's hope so.

Hope So.
Back to back wins. COYWs!
I reckon we're about 3 weeks away from destroying someone. Signs are definitely there
Just seen the replay of Cav`s wonder goal. It was the great run by Bryan that created the space. Tremendous vision.
Second half was top class - Stevie Sess was class. Once again Harry Arter was fantastic in the holding role, his passing was a bit off in the first half but I love how he's always hard into the tackles, really adds a bit of steel into our team. Also honourable shoutout to the defence as a whole, only allowed one shot on target in two games, and it was only just in. I know we've not played teams with massive attacking prowess but it's good to see them getting more used to one another and confident and playing well as a unit
Arter was poor but never stopped trying. Not sure that midfield trio will work long term.
Good win but Huddersfield were crap
I agree, defensively I feel we're a lot better, despite people's opinion on here. The midfield is helping out a lot more.

Johansen is going to see his pitch time diminish. I think Reid brings a lot more on the attack and should take over the third mid field spot.
I think our back 4 is a lot better (in this league) than people give it credit for. Bryan in particular is brilliant

Agree that Bryan has started the season well. Great work for our second goal last Saturday and more good work today. I do worry that Cav's unwillingness to track back much leaves him a bit exposed though.
Excellent goals that topped a good second half performance, at times it looked as though we were the home team. Good game management by Scott, and we looked Street Wise, with more leaders and characters this year. Pleased for Sess, I would imagine he would have initially been nervous which is understandable, and he got 90+ 5 precious minutes. As a team we had a stronger mentality tonight, and it showed, and we now have something to build on, and we had the flavour, and we must keep it ticking over, and keep playing at our tempo.
This is the tyle of game last year when it went 1 all we woukd lost loads of character in this team from the manager down the leaders we have now mitro mawson arter reid carney looks more at it stef jo ream even mcdonald on the bench

I thought Steven Sessegnon was outstanding for a nineteen year old in spite of a couple of minor positional lapses early on and was my MOTM. Cavaleiro's goal was beautifully struck and made up for a lacklustre first half. Mitro's header was excellent but he was a bit naughty late on which, in spite of the poor refereeing consistency throughout, is never excusable. I liked the way Arter was re-invented by Parker for this game playing a more conservative role. Knockaert continues to work hard and show signs of brilliance while the midfield did appear to dominate much of the second half. Ream's calmness continues to impress and Mawson'e uneveness continues to confound but somehow the two get closer and closer to a good pairing. Bryan continues to impress at times only to spoil it with poor decision making at others.
A decent win against a team lacking in morale and confidence, but there has to be much, much more than this to come from Parker.
Glimpses of Jokanovic for a few moments here and there but still moments of awfulness too.

I agree almost totally.
I wouldn't say moments of awfulness, just Mawson losing his man for the goal which is disturbing for a player rated so highly just a couple of seasons ago.
Mistakes will always be made and its the unforced errors that can kill you and they seem to be diminishing.
I thought we should have made more of our chances and having 3 greedy forwards worked against us a little at times but then it was an advantage for the winner.
Steve Sessegnon's performance was excellent and more so considering the early yellow card.
Frankly he looked a better all round footballer than his brother to me, albeit based on one game

I thought the same, yes its just one game but what a full debut. Calm yet really grew in to it, that run for the ball for the goal shows he has the pace and his close skill at times in the 2nd half definitely better than the more famous twin.
