Summary

Going into May, Fulham still have a lot to fight for towards the end of the 24/25 season. Eighth spot seems to be the position most fans are eyeing up but Sammy James suggests that perhaps seventh is within reach as well. A result against Aston Villa would put Fulham in a very tidy position with Brentford and Man City still to come.

Sammy and Jack discuss the unusual formation Silva started with at Southampton and provide some updates on recent transfer rumours. Are the Walker-Peters and Ben Johnson rumours really that realistic? They make their predictions on how Fulham will set up against Aston Villa and whether the 12:30pm kick off and emotional exhaustion on Villa's part might shine kindly on the team.

In part two, we answer some of your questions. Has Silva's man-management abilities fallen short with Raul Jimenez? Did Fulham let Scott McTominay slip through the net?
