17 - Fulham have named 11 different nationalities in their starting XI for the 17th time in the Premier League, the joint-most of any side in the competition's history (Arsenal, Newcastle and Watford also 17). Diversity. #CRYFUL

Fulham getting Sander Berge to push ticket sales for tomorrow’s Wolves game. Some tickets in Riverside Stand £105 adults; £80 young adults 18-21yo; £80 seniors 65+. Putney Restricted View 18-21yo £52. Players don’t set ticket prices. Club does, so get a board member or exec to flog them, not a player. It's unfair on players.

As well as potentially annoying players, Fulham risk losing more fans’ loyalty and risk diminishing the atmosphere that broadcasters pay billions for. Fulham’s annual gate receipts are roughly £18m compared to £140m+ for broadcast.

How about…have fairer ticket prices, then full house, more noise, more support for Berge and the team, better results, better league finish (£2.7m + a place), more revenue. #FFC

@maxrushden @guardian_sport @bglendenning @PhilippeAuclair @JFfutbol Opta gives Fulham a 0% chance of winning the title. When will the stats elite start giving Marco the praise he deserves??

We all wanted Jay to stay and become a Fulham legend.

But if someone offers you silly money for this, you take it.

I expect and hope he'll do well back in league one, slightly worried he'll get stuck there on the 7 year contract.

A thread of players leaving Fulham this Summer.

Joao Palhinha: Don't cry because it's over; smile because it happened

Watching the world's best tackler in a Fulham shirt has been a joy. Clown-sized shoes to fill here.

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

Tosin is a decent defender at PL level, but no more than that.

He's also not great under pressure:

It's a shame we didn't get £ for him, but Diop is better and frees up mins for a younger player with a higher ceiling.

[Hudl Statsbomb @Statsbomb]

Tosin Adarabioyo's (Fulham) pass completion rate drops from 87% to 56% when under pressure, the largest decrease in completion % when under pressure in the Premier League in 2022/23

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

I don't expect he was our top target, but I quite like Nelson.

These are limited minutes, mainly subbed on against tired defences, but a really nice balanced profile.

I'm surprised he's not gone somewhere who can give him more minutes.

A thread of Fulham's summer signings:

First up, ESR.

I'm not that excited by this one. £30m+ for a 24 year old with barely 500 league minutes the last 2 seasons is a 🚩

He's comfortable on the ball, and a good finisher. OK creator.

He'll be good, I think we could do better.

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

Now we're talking: Jorge Cuenca.

24 years old, decent amount of La Liga minutes, and a balanced profile, left footed, for less than £6m?

This is a smart purchase, and will be a capable backup for Bassey. More of this please TK.

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

Ohhhh boy. £12m for this would be a heck of a deal.

A real dribbly boy with lovely creativity. We do know how to find them. Expect an upswing on goals too.

Rayan Cherki, yes please!

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

Rumours thread:

Sander Berge is apparently close to joining, and this is one I'm not that hot on.

Reportedly £25m - a role that I don't see as top priority, and won't really elevate the squad.

If it's as well as a true 6, I'm ok. If instead of, I'm worried.

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

Joachim Andersen

When I first saw this rumour, I blasted it for being a bit lazy. Then I saw these numbers.

No resale value, but we'll get a good few years out of him next to Bassey.

I've missed his pings upfield.

[SW6 Stats @SW6Stats]

Well well well... It's been a while hasn't it. Where's the little bird logo gone?

After a bit of a hiatus, I'm back.

Let's get down to vizness.

SHADOW went #missing 10 November 2023 with LEAD STILL ATTACHED while with a dogwalker at the Royal Hounds Dog Park #Meopham #DA13 #Kent (W3W both.kite.grand.)
He was wearing a blue collar & airtag, and light blue Biothene lead. Shadow is chipped.
