He is brilliant but he is also prone to regular mistakes, for instance against Leicester he played fantastic but right at the end of that same match he got tackled trying to dribble out from the back & nearly cost us 2 points.

Regular? Very harsh. World class player for me, we are blessed with 5 ridiculously good centre backs

Hurlind may not be riksed

Why would we not risk him? If he aggravates the injury he'll only miss Chelsea (probably won't play anyway) and Brentford (arguably an easier game than Fulham)... so for me it's worth the risk if he's able to play

We are indeed. But pairing our best two is a bit of a conundrum. Last season i thought Stones and Dias, this season it's take your pick. Maybe Akanji and Ake ?

I think it’s horses for courses. Tomorrow I would go Laporte over Ake due to the strength of Mitrovic - aerial rather than pace. Would probably pair him with Ruben. It’s a nice problem to have. I can’t think of any central defender at other PL clubs that I’d want to swap for any of our 5

Alvarez - Haaland - Foden
Bernardo - Rodri - KDB
Cancelo - Dias - Akanji - Lewis
Eddie

Not that this would ever happen, but would have been fun to watch!

Can't underestimate Fulham,they are much improved,and have probably one of the best records at our place of picking up wins and draws pro rata..

18 games unbeaten says differently. Unless you want to go back to the days of Swift and Doherty

Twitter land is panicking because Haaland not on the training pics.

I still have Fulham down as a bogey team too. They seemed to win every year at our place for a while. I remember being two nil up against them and losing 3-2 one season

Yep i was there that day 2008, it wasnt a big surprise.
