I am a little concerned about the omission of Todibo as he appeared a top target and yet cannot shift Mavropanos who is always a little suspect. I know It's early days but with Todibo and Fullkrig clearly not able to unseat Antonio, who is largely anonymous, and Mavro, It's a concern for 70m worth of signings.
What got us the point was having a shot. Only Ipswich have managed fewer attempts than us so either our forwards are not having a go or our creative players are not creating enough or both.
We haven’t clicked yet as an attacking unit. It makes sense when you change from a side that relies on sitting deep with 35% of the ball & playing on the break to a side which now has around 45%-50% of the ball with more onus on us to create & control attacks.

And we've started Antonio in all our league games so far, and he's been useless.
I'm enjoying this squad having subs that change the game. After the international break there were several players not up for a full game, and having strong replacements made a real difference.

I think you often struggle for periods & play poorly against good sides. Fulham are definitely one of those.
Coufal - Mavropanos - Kilman - Wan-Bissaka
Kudus - Soler - Paquetá - Summerville
Bowen - Ings
Lots of attacking players on for that final 10-15 mins & that’s what got us the point.
