Could have /should have been 6. Instead it's 2 .......

Long way to to go but we know how important a good start is and we know through experience that draws send you down. The Fulham team and management in this season need to find a way of winning games and it needs to happen quickly. More recruits to come through the door no doubt but we were largely toothless today and very unimaginative.

Todays performance a stark contrast to last week but I appreciate that it was extremely hot. Pereira very ineffectual today but he was not alone.

Many will argue it is an undefeated start to the season but that is largely irrelevant. Would have traded a victory today for a defeat against Liverpool. As it is we march on and we have a massive game against Brentford on Saturday who are currently putting Utd to the sword.

This is a very unforgiving division but we need to find a way and fast.

COYW !!!

I wouldn't have swapped a victory today for a defeat vs Liverpool. That performance and result last week will do a lot psychologically for the team to give them the confidence that they belong at this level.

[filham]

Both of our first two matches were tight and results could have been different, a win defeat or draw was possible in either game.

The import thing is we are in there competing, no team will look forward to meeting us right now.

Yes we did lack bite today, particularly down the flanks and we are missing Wilson, a problem for Siva to solve. BDR is a hard worker and useful as a utility player but he does not tuck away the half chances and lacks pace.

The draws under Parker ultimately led to relegation. I understand your point but this team/club has struggled to get wins in the Premier league and until that changes it will be a hangover that dents confidence ....

Big difference in our first games of this season compared with our last 2 PL starts.

Not only do we have points on the board, we have not been well beaten and made to look out of our depth.

Long way to go but decent start.

I cant understand why so many posters today have used the heat to explain away our less than acceptable performance today.  Do people actually feel that it was only hot on the Fulham half of the pitch or that the wolves players are especially acclimatised to extreme heat?

I think if we can take anything from the last two weeks games results, it is that we'll seriously need to revaluate which teams we might have to struggle against to stay up and perhaps Utd will be one of them.

The difference is we played for draws under Parker, or we drew games because we went ahead by 1 goal and then tried to sit back and defend only to then concende rather than push on.... we're trying to win games under Silva and have drawn 2 games one at home to Liverpool, then away to Wolves. Also, we've done that without our new signings and have more attacking reinforcements on the way. I think we'll be fine psychologically. 2 points from these 2 games is a great result and I'd have snapped ya hands off for that before we played them.

As stated above, we are competing WAY better than we did generally under Parker. With a few more exciting additions we will do even better, with Solomon and Wilson yet to join the party

[Lighthouse]

This sort of threat is so typical and frankly predictable.

One week all confident and the next gloomy. Two good results that could have been defeats and not draws.

Another way of looking at it.

[Finnans Right Peg]

We drew nil all away from home and missed a peno ,last week we gave one of the best teams in europe the toughest game they had in ages and yet we complain ,I really just don't get it .We are also missing wilson and Solomon ,leno ,diop and maybe Kluivert have to be added to this team actually lost for words

[davew]

Exactly Lighthouse, could easily have been 0 points, 2 points is a good return for the first 2 games, imagine being a Manure supporter? Don't fancy playing the Bees next week, another point against them will be a good result!

Got a point from a mediocre performance away against Wolves is alright in my book. We never seem to do well there.

[Whitestone]

We are already doing better than the last two times in the Prem. A draw against Liverpool and a draw away to any team is ok. This team is still finding its feet in the division, we have some good new signings and two very good wingers to come back from injury. We can't continue with some of the current starters if we are going to survive and we won't. We will win games. Marco Silva has done well to get these two opening draws.

Wolves were at home and they have some talent, including legitimate PL guys off the bench. We have like 8/11ths of a starting XI and almost no bench. We had a chance to win both matches and points definitely matter, but I've been pleased with our grit through two matches. When we get more talent in, I like our chances most weeks.

[Cambridge Pete]

What's the problem. It's early days, we are missing our best wingers, we are unbeaten, we have competed against the second best team in the Division and Europe and a good Prem side at their ground. I for one am happy. Yes could have been better but we have points on the board.

[Jimmy Hill]

In elite sport you have to be able to continuously put your self in a position to win. Which we have achieved so far. If continue to do this we will get the points we deserve. 3 points next up and we've had a great start.

Sorry but your wrong. A draw next week will not be a good result.... 3 games no win ...

[bobbo]

We desperately needed another player playing alongside or very close behind mitro . When wolves attack they constantly had 3 sometimes 4 running forward level with our defence making more of a threat than we did on attacks , that said we had 3 on target and they had 1 which just proves our defence as a whole played really well .

[Black, White and Fred]

A point against top 6 teams and a point away from home is just fine as long as it's not against a potential rival for survival. Like others have said the mere fact we had a chance and are disappointed not to have maximum point from these two fixtures is apple and oranges compared to our last Prem season.

I wouldn't call a draw next week a "good" result but I'd certainly not be unhappy with it.

[St Eve]

Good result today and last week. Well in both games. Pereira ran his socks off. Time and our new signings will only make us better. We also have a very smart manager. If we are moaning after 2 games, both undefeated, it's going to be a very long season.
