I'm all for English sides doing well in Europe but dealing with your fixture schedule is one part you have to deal with. I dont see why other teams should look to accommodate them.

Re: Fulham at home

For most sides in this league putting sequences together is very hard. I'd say it's a must win just because we need to make most of the run we're on.

A few weeks ago Watford away would have been a tough game. Keep our run going and players will be really confident of getting a result.
