What a player, what a guy. Man of the match, and the biggest heart out there. Fantastic.
:plus one: :plus one: :plus one:
Absolutely.
Thought that he and Riether along with Bent and Boateng when they came on were the few positives to come out today's performance.
I am totally blown away by him he is such a raw energetic talent. Once he works on his final ball (as he does rush it at times) he will be an absolute gem.
I feel he is wasted though on the wings, I really hope Jol converts him into a central mid/just behind the striker ax he is not afraid to put a foot and run at people.
Quality player, he's been the most consistent performer and ever improving too.
Kasami was easily the best Fulham player on display today for me.

He wants to be a CM, said so himself on twitter. Believes he's wasted on the wings or too high.
Great game from him. Right now we need players with energy; Reither, Boateng, Parker, Kasami and Bent should be in first 11 every week, when fit.
Agreed MOM
Showed effort and intent .
Certainly a bright spot in what was still a fairly dismal display.
Well done.
I LOVE KASAMI
I'm glad someone started a thread on Kasami. I have been his biggest critic but this season.....
Take a bow, Pajtim.
Had a great game today certainly a key player for us
Best breakthrough player this year. Just because he plays for us does he not get the recognition for it.
He is improving game by game and was fantastic today- strong, quick, high work rate both in defense and attack and everything we created came from despite the fact he was played out of position on the right and then the left wing. He also seems highly motivated and full of passion which is great to see.
I think he's looked most comfortable in the middle behind the striker but like most I think he'd be great in central midfield as he has the defensive capability, so long as it doesn't stifle him going forward. I'd really like him to turn into a Yaya Toure box-to-box type as I've mentioned before.
Still, if Jol won't play him there I'd be happy to see him of the left (I think he's slightly better there than the right) ahead of the likes of Kaca and Taraabt, with Ruiz in the middle and Dejagah on the right if we ever see him again.
Player of the season so far. His work rate is 2nd to none and LOVED his passion when we scored.

good or he will be another one of our youth that we sell for peanuts
He runs direct and isn't afraid to play a pass forward. It's a simple game really. Well done Kasami.
I think the biggest worry about Kasami is Jol thought he needed a season on loan again, makes you wonder what our manager watches when trainings going on. Probably sat in the canteen with berbatov with thier pipe and slippers on telling each other how wonderful they are
Honestly?
What a miserable addition to a largely positive thread.

I hope he becomes a long term player. He has been key this year. Get him on a 3+ year contract.
I've been very critical of Kasami this season. Thought he lost possession far too often in earlier games this season but he was excellent yesterday. Have to admire his desire and work ethic. A central midfield of him and Parker would be interesting but Jol has been very reluctant to play him there.

I also have been critical of him recently and will continue to be so. He is poor and with little judgement and is prone to some very poor decision making, look at the slap he gave to a stoke player could have got him sent off. The shot which led to the goal would have hit the corner flag apart from a lucky deflection. He had a couple of nice touches but contributed little. A poor player amongst a poor team.

065.gif He is improving every game and earned the right to be one of the first names on the teamsheet each week. If he continues to improve at this rate maybe we can start to think about the youth revolution and bringing in a few more from the U21'. With David on the bench yesterday and Mesca knocking on the door this season may yet be one to remember. Lets hope so

The players would like to apologise for winning the game and ruining your weekend.
:plus one: Quickly becoming one of my favourite current players. His work rate is top notch.
Kasami? If that wasn't his best game for the club, i cannot recall better. Wonderful to see a young player start to come of age. As long as he isn't intimdated by some of the old timers then he should flourish this season.
AND the way he physically stood up to the stoke bully boys was impressive although another ref might have been a bit more strict with him in the first half on two or three occasions.
Head and shoulders above the rest yesterday, even better than sasha!

It isn't the first weekend a poor Fulham team has spoiled. We were lucky, anyone who thinks otherwise is deluding themselves and I am sorry but I can' just see Kasami in the same light as you guys and don't get me started on his tackling, consistently misses the ball and allows the opposition to stroll past him.

You probably think Sidwell is good. I'd rather he lost the ball looking to go forward than lose it going backwards or sideways like others have this season. He also runs with it, which stands out in our current midfield set up.
Kasami has had the most passion of the team in the first part of this season. I would say a midfield with Parker and Kasami would be a good tandem. They both run forever and Kasami has gotten so much stronger over the past year. I think we are just seeing the beginning of his progression.

I am really impressed with him. The season out on loan has given him good experience & game time. Jol has always had faith in him. He now needs a regular start in CM just behind the striker/s. I really appreciated his chest thumping when we scored & at the end towards the Hammy end.
I love kasami , BUT that ball that lead to bent's goal , was it a shot , was it a cross , was it a pass . I have no idea , but he made it work ! he aimed for the deflection 049:gif 049:gif
