Fulham Focus

Following late heartbreak in the Carabao Cup, Fulham must dust themselves down - but having suffered yet another set-piece capitulation at St James' Park, that will also mean sharpening up for the visit of a Nottingham Forest side now managed by Sean Dyche.So join Sam (live from a late-night Christmas party in Glasgow) and Kish (live from an evening at home with his cats) as they discuss a Craven Cottage clash under the lights, and attempt to answer questions such as have we finally learnt some lessons? How might Marco Silva solidify us at the back? And would another home loss leave us looking nervously over our shoulder?There's also chat with football writer and Forest fan David Marples, who not only provides the lowdown on the differences between Nuno-ball, Ange-ball and Dyche-ball, but also tells the stories behind his recent induction into the 92 Club.

After waiting 74 years for a win at Turf Moor, Harry Wilson magic and Bernd Leno heroics saw Fulham overcome the Burnley curse by the very finest of marginsBut in our dodgy defending and poor game management, did Scott Parker's side show up some frailties that need correcting?And with a midweek trip to St James's Park the only thing standing in our way of a Carabao Cup semi final, can we regroup without our AFCON stars to take a step closer to cup glory?Kish breaks down all of that and more with the most vibey social media double act since Bassey and Iwobi: Dylan Chavasse and (Mr Fulham South Africa himself) James Preston Hosted on Acast.

After two home defeats in quick succession, maybe an away game is what's required for Marco Silva and his Fulham side to get back on track.The only trouble is it's a trip to Turf Moor that awaits, and that's a stadium the Whites haven't won at in 33 attempts since April 1951.Nevertheless, Sam and Luke sit down to ponder whether a Christmas miracle really is possible, and wonder exactly what our trio of Super Eagles can offer before they depart for AFCON.Meanwhile, teenage social media star Jacob Horsfall brings the Burnley perspective, explains how the hosts can be got at, and endears himself to the Focus gang by putting the boot into Scott Parker.

Will Fulham ever beat Crystal Palace at home again?For some of Sunday‘s encounter it looked like it may finally be happing. But a combo of Samuel Chukwueze’s toenail, some questionable subs, and our trademark set-piece frailty struck.So join Sam, Kish and Luke to get the latest Cottage capitulation to Oliver Glasner out of your system.The gang lament our soft defending, marvel at Harry Wilson’s one-man Goal of the Season mission, salute the continued Emile Smith Rowe renaissance, and ponder if our season is at risk of being derailed by key AFCON departures.

Have you recovered from Tuesday night yet? Sam and Kish certainly haven’t! So join them for a special Fulham Focus double bill to discuss the maddest of mad nights at the Cottage in recent years and work out what it means for our clash with Crystal Palace when we return there on Sunday.  In Part 1, they’re joined by Stuart Lutes to decide if we should be more alarmed by Fulham’s defending or delighted by our attacking against Man City and wax lyrical about Samuel Chukwueze and Alex IwobiIn Part 2 (42:50), Rich from ‘Eagle-Eyed Football’ gives us the lowdown on this weekend’s opponents as we try to work out if Marco Silva will finally find the blueprint to beating Oliver Glasner at the Cottage.
