FC Sydkysten Visão geral

Andoni Iraola has challenged his Liverpool players to eliminate their habit of starting games slowly when they host Fulham at Anfield on Saturday. Despite remaining unbeaten since taking the hotseat, the Spaniard is wary of the physical and mental toll required to constantly fight back from losing positions.

Thomas Frank impressed many Premier League observers at Brentford, but then suffered a 38-game flop as head coach of Tottenham. He has been out of work since severing ties with Spurs, but Clinton Morrison has explained to GOAL why the Danish tactician’s reputation has not been tarnished. He is expected to return to the dugout at some point in the not too distant future.

Ben Chilwell produced an instant impact on his Crystal Palace return, firing home a spectacular late winner in a 3-2 victory over Fulham. The former Chelsea defender was subsequently targeted by a heckling home supporter at full-time, but he quickly silenced the taunt by flashing a cheeky gesture to celebrate the derby triumph.

Fulham manager Alvaro Arbeloa faced the wrath of the Craven Cottage faithful as his side fell to a third consecutive Premier League defeat on Saturday afternoon. Despite taking the lead twice, the Cottagers ultimately collapsed to a 3-2 loss against Crystal Palace, leaving them rooted to the bottom of the table.
