Felix Magath was given 2 games to save his job

and vs. Cardiff is the second one. The first one: Derby - Fulham: 5-1...

So do the players really want "The Dictator" there? I´m sure the mauling at Derby was not the response he was hoping for.

This is former (last season) Fulham player Jon Arne Riise´s words about him:

- He was fair to me, but he came to a club and didn´t even know the players positions on the pitch. In my opinion, if you come to a club as a manager, you need to give the players some spirits. He did the exact opposite and implemented things that the players didn´t like (commenting as a side-kick on Tv2 (my translation)).

Something tells we are meeting Fulham JUST at the right time :thumbright: :D

They May be off form but have a very dangerous squad .

McCormack , dembele , Parker , mitroglu , rodellega , Bryan Ruiz , kacanikliic .

They will come good and this will be a tough match away from home

It's a bit of an inconvenience having to play Fulham away
I wouldn't be surprised if we won 3-0 at the same time I wouldn't be surprised if we conceeded 3

It will be interesting to see though, if those players are up for a 100 % effort. Are they looking for saving their manager? I´m not convinced at all.

It is starting to look like one of those situations where the players want the manager gone so are forcing the chairmanship hand with poor results .
Maybe we are playing them at the right time but I still expect to see them in the top 6 come the end of the season .
I have a feeling that will be tony pulis next job
