A six pointer against Spurs and the team almost picks itself.
Leno
Tete Diop Ream Robinson
Reed Palhinha
Periera
BDR Willian
Mitro
If we are not winning on the hour then Cairney and James have to come on as super subs.
Nice to call it a six pointer when we are near the top of the table not the bottom. Agree with your team. COYW
Agree with the team (it's hard not to). I do think Marco sometimes leaves it a bit late to bring TC on, if we are winning he provides control of the midfield and if we are losing he is more creative than Reed plus he still carries a goal threat.

It is going to be hard to suggest Tom as player of the season because of his lack of starts but he is running away with "sub of the season"

So true - I love it when he comes on as he adds so much. Perhaps his new nickname should be either the rather obvious Nautilus or perhaps Das ( left ) boot

Certainly is and not just for Fulham, but best and most consistent sub in the Prem?
Isn't it nice to have a real starting eleven and not change lineups in every match?
I would like to see Wilson get minutes, when he's finally back fully fit he's better than BDR.
To be fair though, BDR has been great so far this season
I'd like to see Solomon at some point as I think he could be a great addition and better than James imo
Leno
Tete Diop Ream Robinson
Reed Palhinha
BDR Pereira Willian
Mitrovic
Rodak, Tosin, Kurzawa, TC, Chalobah, Wilson, Solomon, James, Vinicius
It's pretty easy currently to pick our team as we generally always have the same starting line up
If there's no suspensions
If Mitro is not at his best and I hope he is I'd sub him off for Carlos at the 60 min mark
In these what team threads, I'm always amused at the 'bring on a sub at 60 minutes' plan. Unless it's strongly fitness-related why? The way the game is going, the score, momentum should surely determine subs. Is the 60 minute thing a feature of computer games?
i think its just the way we have settleed into a format where tc invariably comes on and the ball seems to stick with us and we look less hurried.
apart from leicester...

It is the fact that the opposition is tiring and our ball players and pace men are more effective against defenders that are a shade slower in the tackle.
