Friends of Fulham

There should have been a penalty in the opening minutes with Fabio being taking down after his initial touch in the box.  But what a match that was!  An absolute brilliant performances by all the players.  Going to be tough to pick a MOTM but we'd still like you to try.  So, who was your FoF MOTM?

Mitro was immense in the playmaking department today. Think Tete also had a very good combative game and sealed it with a great strike.

Lots of candidates today. Wilson, for example, had a brilliant game, but you have to give it to Mitro.

Need to have a longer think on this, best I have seen from Tete, Reed was so good playing deeper, Wilson played well with 3 assists, 🔥 overall play was immense. Will vote in a while might even watch it again.

Mitrovic 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

It has to be Mitrovic, but a fantastic team performance.

CAn we fix it so all of them get it

Amazing and sublime all round team performance.
So many magnificent periods of play, we really turned it on with so many icings on the cake.
So for me the team should be given all the accolades.

I believe that Wilson has had 20 assist now  :Haynes The Maestro:

Obviously difficult but for me it was Reed.
He was everywhere, nipping, biting, nudging, crunching etc and his ball-winning and distribution was superb with a lot of
short and delicate touches and passes as well.
Dominated the defensive midfield which gave us the possession and platform.

Went for Tom he was magnificent and started the scoring .

Voted Tete but wish I could give it to Marco Silva just because

Mitro's best ever game for Fulham, and I was thinking that in the 80th minute...

Come the final whistle I think I have just seen one of the all time great performances by a Fulham player, with all that the last minute entailed statistically and emotionally.

Simply Immense today.

Couldn't watch the game, had to go to work, listening to GJ & Jamie Mitro gets my vote

Easy....100% Rodak

All deserve it, but Mitro was magnificent!
Watch his play from midfield- passing, tackling, all great round performance from the man on 🔥
Big mentions to Cairney and Reeeeam and Tete.
What a great team, performance and season

Wow!

I bet that the were utterly epic today.

Honestly, this is one of those games where every player should just win it.   Without a doubt the best performance of an unbelievable season.

That said, picking one is strangely easy. 064.gif  Wilson was incredible (and I've been one of very few doubters about him for a lot of this season), but Mitro wins it.  F@ck me what a way to smash a record.

Kenny Tete has just put in the most perfect full back display I can recall. An astonishingly good game, first half he was sublime.....but clearly the man of the match was Mitrovic. 

Well it's obviously Mitro, nobody should vote against him. He should get a unanimous vote!  That said, I thought TC got us going after a slightly flat first 20 mins. I thought Tete had the best performance I have ever seen from him (definitely Prem standard). Wilson was excellent. Carv stood up to some appalling rough house treatment and was running them ragged. Kebano and Seri had wonderful cameos. Ream and Tosin sooo solid. What a team performance.

So right.

Tete for me. Brilliant, nothing got past him and that shot. It was right in front of me - like an arrow into the corner of the goal

I agree. In the first 20 mins he did so much to win us the platform we needed to perform at our best. He has the occasional poor game but tonight he didn't put a foot wrong. Wilson was on song and Mitro was imperious.

Wilson is my man.  If Mitro holds the scoring record in the league, then surely Wilson holds the assist record!

I went for Cairney. I thought he ran the game, can't remember a bad pass, calm on the ball and settled the team with that first goal. A ;t of good performances though. Congrats Mitro on the scoring record - unbelievable.

   The whole team were fabulous tonight and so many players had brilliant moments,
   but Tete for me, he was a man possessed.

This  :plus one:

One of the most difficult ones, for all the right reasons. My candidates:

Mitro: Extremely good link up play, a couple of Pirlo class through balls, excellent work rate. Oh, and then he of course scored a couple as well as per usual. Perfect.

Carvalho: Luton just couldn't handle him, although they tried their best to kick him out of the game on many occasions. I felt his excellent ball carrying skills and trickery was one of two main factors behind our total dominance after the first 20 minutes or so. The youngster took the game by the scruff of the neck and led the way to the Championship title. Also an excellent goal and superb assist. Magical.

Cairney: When he works the team works. Once he started to kick into gear Luton had no chance. TC was for me the second main factor behind our dominance. His ball retention skills and passing range allows the rest of the guys to do their thing. Fitting that he scored goal number 100 after a difficult last 18 months or so for him. Legendary.

Wilson: Some days it seems like every pass from him leads to a goal. He makes things happen and has had an absolutely great first season with the team. Involved in most of the goals, as per usual it seems. Fantastic.

Tete: An all action display like no other. Great goal, great engine and a superb sliding tackle. As PL ready as they come. Sublime.

Reed: Finally he did what he is good at, sniffing out danger and playing the simple (not necessarily easy) passes. Allowed the more offensively skilled players the freedom to create. Rock solid.

Almost feel bad for not mentioning the rest, every one of them had great games.

In the end I went for Carvalho, because I feel he was the key to unlocking the flood gates.

Agree

The person who thought giving each supporter a scarf. 12th man lifted the team.

On the pitch. Mitro. 92nd minute. 🍒 on 🎂 & cue bedlam. Fantastic to be part of a wonderful evening.

Some of the play leading up to the goals was so well coordinated and directed because the team were all on the same wavelength with Cairney and Carvalho directing from midfield and Mitro doing much of the hard work of getting attacks in motion.   Great team performance, a deserved record for Mitro, and a whopping 106 goals for the season and still a game to go.  Mitro gets MOTM from me because he not only scores record numbers of goals some of his work lower down the pitch is sublime.  The coaching staff deserve a mention for getting the team in the right frame of mind for this game too.   

Denis Odoi !!!! When he was picked him up in front of the Hammy End and everybody started singing for him, and also when he made his way to the podium for the presentation: absolutely loved that !
