Fulham 2-3 Crystal Palace - the fans' verdict

[BBC] We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Fulham and Crystal Palace. Here are some of your comments: Fulham fans Tom: Who would have thought that replacing Premier League experience with novices on and off the pitch would backfire almost immediately? If we don't win before the international break, then Alvaro Arbeloa will have to go. Brian: We knew it would be a massive change from Marco Silva as the majority of players were/are his and that losing Harry Wilson and Raul Jimenez would change the dynamics. I can see what Alvaro is trying to achieve but it may take longer than some in the home crowd are prepared to accept. I'm not worried, there is too much quality in the squad, but we know football management is cursed, so let's see how it pans out. Simon: Arbeloa's system can't defend but the board knew this when taking the gamble with him and the Real Madrid academy. This is a strategic error to chase player profits over Premier League stability. We've leaked seven goals in three league games. You can't stay in this division with that defence. Russ: The managerial appointment was always going to be high risk but out of our supporters' hands. The manner in which we concede goals has to be a concern and with games against Liverpool and Manchester United coming up, this should have been at least our first point. Early days, but what I saw at Craven Cottage on Saturday is concerning. Crystal Palace fans Gary: It was great to get the win, but we are too open at the back and playing too high up the pitch. Offensively, we look good. The forward players need to be more clinical. We have Ismaila Sarr and Jean-Philippe Mateta to come back, so I'm sure they will make the difference if they can get their heads right. I'm pleased for Tyrick Mitchell getting his first double. We have three home games now - games we should win. Hopefully, a good start in the cups and three points against Ipswich . Steve: An entertaining game full of defensive frailties on both sides. One positive is that Palace scored three goals, but there is still cause for concern. Chris Richards was often caught out of position and Adam Wharton lacked control and dynamism. The team perhaps still needs time to gel, but a much-needed win is very welcome. Derek: This win was huge, not only for the team and the new manager, but so important for the fans. Everyone's morale will be reinvigorated by this result. Must push on with ground improvements. Andy: It was good to get the win in a competitive game. There are plenty of positives, one being the presence of Quinten Timber and the improved attacking intent of Tyrick Mitchell. Our defending appears chaotic, but this could be part of the new bonding process and could come good. We need to improve our distribution as we are giving the ball away too easily.
