Any rumor on a Richardson price? 15 mil for Dembele is legit for us. Nice work.

I didn't see the West Ham game, apparently Berbatov looked good but that's about it.

Berbatov could be a great buy but seriously we are thin as frick at central midfield. Since last year we have lost Murphy, Dembele, Etuhu and Gecov and replaced them with no one (I don't know who this Dejagah guy is but apparently he's an attacking midfielder).

I'm struggling to even think of who our central midfielders are. Diarra, Sidwell, and who? Davies can play there I guess, when healthy. Apparently Jol said something about Richardson playing in the middle but he's not really a CM. Kasami could maybe be moved there. But if Diarra were to get hurt, holy shite we are in trouble. Kind of a disastrous transfer window in that sense.

Now that I think about it, thankfully we still have Chris Baird, he can play there when necessary. Hopefully we can keep Diarra and Sidwell healthy (not a bad pairing with Ruiz in front of them) and then maybe bring somebody in during the January transfer window.

Apparently Fulham are in talks with Giorgos Karagounis. He's old but still looked good at the Euros and on a short-term deal (preferably like one year with a club option for another) it seems like a pretty good move to me, considering the lack of depth at CM.

Karagounis is official, seems like a really good short term move especially since I believe it was a free transfer. Hopefully we can get some younger signings in the winter.

Yeah I'm fine with it, it just makes sense especially since its only a one year contract apparently. We're already the oldest team in the league, might as well just go with it for the moment.

We have to have some numbers on the squad. Cost nothing so no harm done. Eager to get back out there and see if these guys can find some form. West Brom look like they mean it this season.

Once again I find myself surprised that we got Berbatov. If I'm a Liverpool fan I'm kind of livid that management wouldn't shell out 5 million for him (I guess there's the United-Liverpool thing though). Even Arsenal or Chelsea could have used him for that price.

Rough for Richardson to get hurt, but I don't know why he starts. Kaka is just better already.

I still think we could use a good, young central midfielder. I lurk on a Fulham board and the other day they had a discussion about possibly signing Ilkay Gundogan during the January window Sounds legit to me.

Defending has to be shored up. We've scored on just about everyone, especially since the addition of Berba. Kacaniklic should have never NOT been starting.

Problem is when we are scoring, so is the other team. 2-2, 2-2, 3-3, 3-3.

I've never been more excited and yet frustrated watching Fulham play football.
