In response to Martin Jol's resignation to replace Bruno Labbadia at VfB Stuttgart, the Fulham board of directors under the watchful eye of new chairman Shahid Khan decided to appoint former Sweden Women's captain Daniela Ekstrom as the new boss at Craven Cottage.
Ekstrom recently announced her surprise at the appointment, but admitted that better times were to come for the London-based club who narrowly avoided relegation in 2008.

Using LFC Marshall's early July update, as you can see a lot of work is needed on the structure of the team. Hopefully, I will pay less attention to the wingers since I will look to play 4-1-2-1-2. Preferably, I'll be looking for at least a new CM, a striker to partner Berba due to playing Ruiz at AMC and a new right back.

I'll be looking to the Dutch keeper, signed on the update, to show why he was wanted by various top clubs before he joined Roma. At only 29 I hope he can be a fixture in the team for years to come.

The Norwegian centre-back has been a rock in defence for a number of years. Also club captain, I'll be hoping he can inspire some impressive performances and also chip in with a few goals from set pieces.

The Costa-Rican hitman has been a thorn in my side for many a FM save. Let's just hope he can find the form he showed against me all the time when he was an opponent.
Dimitar Berbatov

Dimitar Berbatov. Possibly one of the best 'technical' players in the league. Hoping he can hit the ground running and reproduce the eye for goal he had at Manchester United.
That's it for now, I have advanced a little further and therefore some signings have come in. I'd still like to see who you may have in mind given the squad though.
