TC MUST PLAY

[Nick Bateman]

Surely even Marco Silva can see what many Fulham fans observe that Tom Cairney is a must starter and if fit should play in EVERY Fulham game.

The man known as Fulham's "Glenn Hoddle" exudes superior play-making and goal scoring to his many gifts and is not utilised enough. Against a faltering Man.United TC will shine and cause them headaches.

We must also play Paulinha as Silva has sometimes played one but not the other in the same team.

I hope Marco starts with a positive attitude and takes the game to them tomorrow.

Personally I'd prefer to start with Cairney and Palhinha.

Palhina selection is obvious and I think TC should be playing as a link between him and the strikers on the day.

[TC's Sporran]

sadly marco likes pereira reed lukic iwobi ahead of tc. its a crying shame to see what he can do with the ball and not get game time.

[The Rational Fan]

Tom Cairney's stats for premier league games as a substitute are awesome, but as a starter his stats are poor. So, surely he should be a substitute, but maybe he could come on a little earlier than normal.

Lukic was poor at Ipswich, he is off the pace, often caught napping

yes I agree with this that Tom is best when he comes on fresh against tired players and when the game gets stretched.

I would prefer to leave it to Marco as when and how to use TC effectively, granted he looked very good against Ipswich, but it was an Ipswich team containing many changes. Marco sees him every day at training so I trust him to make the correct choices.

[Baszab]

Lukic is a weak link
Contributes very little but glides around the pitch
Going through the motions without exerting himself too much
Much rather have Reed even if less skilful

[Twig]

It's Palhinha not Palhina, Paulinha, or any other bastardisation of his name. Just saying.

yeah but he sees pereiras lack of form on the pitch yet still picks him.
i would prefer marco to have some balls and go for it and take the game to them instead of placing too much importance on closing them down and selecting players out of form ahead of better players.

im surprised he doesnt get called pally.  or does that still belong to gary palister?

[Nick Bateman]

Silva gave TC 1 minute of normal time while Lukic was on the 76th minute and headless DeCordova-Reid at 81th. Woeful substitutions by Marco cost Fulham a close match.

Cairney scored in his previous game but was virtually ommitted from the next match - maybe Silva doesn't want goals?!?

Yes but as soon as he came on United scored 

[Mr White]

 How TC did not get a least 20 mins is a mystery.
 Lukic is no where as creative.
