Claudio Ranieri is the new head coach of Fulham, after the two previous experiences, first at Chelsea who was about to become a great team, and then at Leicester where he made a real miracle, which will remain in the history of football forever.
Now our very nice as a good Roman coach, is ready for a new challenge, save a team that is last in the Premier League, with 5 points in 12 games, and that comes from 6 defeats in a row.
First game, first 3-2 victory against Southampton, direct competition for salvation.
Match fought and spectacular, where the attacks prevailed over the defense, to Armstrong's double, the goals of the bomber Mitrovic (double) and Schurrle replied. The Fulham fans have made the difference and will be crucial for the rest of the season. Home wins are essential to get out of the crisis.
Personally I think that the salvation is within Fulham's reach, the team has excellent elements, certainly not from last place, the weak point of this start of the season was the defense, which does not shine for excellence, but with the new coach, who good Italian, he knows how to defend himself as a team, he will solve this problem very quickly.
The transition from a 4-2-3-1 to a 4-4-2, could be very simple and immediate, perhaps even leaving the same interpreters, but making the team more solid and concrete, more balanced in all areas of the field .
The midfield with, Jean Michaël Seri (bought for over 30 million from Nice), Tom Cairney the captain, André Zambo Anguissa and Ryan Sessegnon, is absolutely reliable, a mix of quality and power. Over 100 million the value of these 4 players, who certainly are not from last place indeed could be all or almost holders in teams like the current Manchester UTD, or in any team in the top 10.
In attack the department is complete, with the bomber Aleksandar Mitrovic central point bought by New Castle for 24 million, with already 5 goals.
The world champion André Schürrle, 27-year-old left wing taken for 15 million from Borussia Dortmund.
Finally, the Italo-Argentine talent Luciano Vietto, the first mobile tip that can be played from second tier when the loan arrives from Atletico Madrid.
Surely an excellent staff, which in the hands of Ranieri, can climb the rankings and reach a safe salvation.
Maybe in January a couple of defenders should be bought to reinforce and complete the team.
But we can be sure that Fulham has made the right choice, focusing on a great coach.
