The Fulham Badger

Rodri's reaction.

Cole Palmer misses out on the England squad. Fulham's Josh King is called up — hugely talented and a terrific moment for him, a consistent bright spark under Arbeloa.

A change ahead of the final five. ⏱️

10. AA on clapping the fans: "I'm not the kind of person or coach that likes to go to the fans. I think this is something more about the players. I have my press conference and the interview where I talk about how important are our supporters. "And I think after the Ipswich game, I told them thank you for the support. They were massive in this game. Every game, every away game, every game at home in Craven Cottage. "They have been amazing, especially in this situation. I think they can read my words every week, every time that I have a press conference. I say thank you to our supporters. Thanks for everything that they are doing. I think we need them, they are the most important thing in this club. "Like I said before, I don't feel in that way because for me I'm not an important person. I don't know if maybe I'm wrong, but I think that our players need support because they are the most important thing. They need energy. "So, our players, they are running, they are doing the difficult thing that is playing football. And I think they are the most important thing. I feel that it's not my moment, because it's the moment of my players. "Maybe I'm wrong, maybe you are right, I am wrong. This is the way that I feel. But like I said before, I know how important our fans are for us. How important will be tomorrow in a difficult game. They will be so important again. We need them for 90 minutes." "From here, the only thing I can say is thank you, thank you very much. Of course, sorry if my supporters feel that I know them or I can feel that I could go there to say thanks, I choose my press conference to say it. But if they need it, I will do it. I have no problems, but I feel that it's not my place." #FFC
