An excellent month for us in what was a packed month. P9 W5 L3 D1 is in my opinion a very good record for a month where we faced Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Valencia. A momentous 1-0 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford is definately the highlight of the month, with the defeat against Aston Villa the downside, as they went down to 10 men within 23 seconds! We couldn't capitalise and then they scored late on to take the 3 points. We sit in 7th place now, 3 points ahead of Everton who have 2 games in hand.

January Transfers and Results to come soon..

January Transfers...

Fulham had a busy winter transfer window offloading 3 players and signing 2 prospective stars. Diego Buonanotte has joined the Cottagers from Boca Juniors for a perspective £10M and wonderkid Victor Moses joined from Crystal Palace for £3M.

We are absoloutley ecstatic at the calibre of player we have brought into the club this winter. We've managed to bring in an Argentinian Under-21 international and an potential England star and I believe that with the staff we have here, and with my help we can develop these two wonderfully talented footballers to their maximum potential.

Fulham offloaded Eddie Johnson to Benfica for £2.5M, a previously arranged deal, Clint Dempsey has gone to Aston Villa for £8.25M and Simon Davies has signed for Italian giants AC Milan for £6.25M.

Again we're very happy with the deals we have managed to get for these players. I have a great relationship with Clint and Simon, but for the amount that was offered, and the fact we got all of it in a single payment for both players, was too much to resist and we parted ways in good faith. If they return to the Cottage to face us, I'm sure they'll both recieve a good ovation from the crowd, and they'll definately get a handshake from me. With Eddie however, we never really got off on the right foot, and as he wasn't in my plans for the first team we both decided it would be better if he left us. The offer we recieved was good for the club, and he was up for the challenge of the Portuguese league so it was a win-win situation for both parties.

Excellent month for us again, but yet again our trophy attempts were thwarted by Liverpool in the fourth round of a competition. We couldn't seem to cope with Torres' finishing ability and it's going to be very difficult to win anything this season, unless we go all the way in the Europa League. A solid home draw against Liverpool, in a game we really should have won after being 2-0 up but they went all out in the second half and we just couldn't cope. Some very good wins otherwise and all in all a very good month!

A very exciting month to say the least with no more than 31 goals scored in the 6 games we played this month. With plenty of goals we were certainly entertained, and the results were often very good. The main disappointment being the 5-3 loss at Eastlands, as we managed to peg it back 3 times, and still lost. The turning point of that game, was definately Konchesky's red card. Also the 4-4 draw against West Ham was a disappointing result as we gave away a 4-2 lead with 10 mins left. But all in all a good month, and we will take on Hertha BSC in the 2nd Knockout Round of the Europa League.

Good start to the month. Never easy going abroad so im happy and puts us in a strong position in the group

View attachment 37974
Did the job. Rested a few players because of the upcoming fixtures will require all my squad to play their part.

View attachment 37975
Not too disappointed. Again I rested quite a few because the next few games are more important I feel.

Qualified top of my group

View attachment 37977
Full strength team played except the two long term injured players. Needed this to get back on track.

The fans were 'devastated'. How can they expect us to win :S Did well to get to Quarters

Good result especially as the squad is getting quite thin

Super Sub AJ secures a vital win

We had more shots, more possession but how on earth did we lose so badly. Disgraceful but played a VERY weak side

View attachment 37982
So annoyed about Portsmouth performance because now I'm quite far away from the pack The top teams have been dropping a lot of points which is keeping it very open. The new signings should bolster the back line.

Europa League
View attachment 37989
From what i remember Genoa play 3-4-3 which is tough to play against. Good change of going through if top players are fit.​

 

[DMF]

So can I start again yet?..

This month wasn't the greatest result wise as we drew 3 out of the 5 games we played, with two 3-3 draws in a row. Gignac was in scintillating form this month bagging 7 goals in 4 games. We sit 7th in the league with Everton up next in the league, who sit a point above us in the table.
