I guess as Mancini thinks Fulhams big defenders will struggle more against the tricky small players, he's also been very effective off the bench recently.
Fulham have Kasami on the bench who scored the only goal in Fulham U21s win over our U21s on Monday. Very little strength in depth for Fulham though, we have no excuses at all today even though Fulham are unbeaten at home.
Given our defensive start I'm very surprised not to see Lescott in the team, even as much for Kompanys peace of mind as anything else.
If our midfield can't walk over Fulham and win this game we've got some serious problems. Don't care if we win 1-0, just as long as we keep a clean sheet and create good chances. The performance matters as much as the result.
