3 points do nicely, even it was the most boring game ever.

Boring game but a win is a win, especially under the circumstances and and away game too. Fulham is a good side.

I think a lot of this turgidness is because we just don't have any real wingbacks. We have defensive stability (Stupid individual errors aside) but we have literally nothing going forward.

Thought Zirkzee was actually worse, at least Hojlund was contesting balls. We need wingbacks though, our attackers are getting no service at all without them.
I can't see Garnacho being sold, Amorim seems happy enough with him at #10 for now, at least he offers some sort of threat.
We need to gamble on a striker before the end of this window, even on loan, both Zirkzee and Hojlund are just woefully inadequate. That seems the major issue at the moment.

I'd say give that 16 year old kid that came from Arsenal a shot, isn't he like 6'3 or something?

17, he's not remotely ready.
I don't see what changes with a different striker. It's not like we are creating anything and they're missing them. We're not even getting into good positions to create.
Attack has been crap for months/years now, even last season
Hojlund was a risk that clearly hasn't paid off, in the short term at least

You could put prime van Nistelrooy in this team and he wouldn't score.
We don't create. Yes strikers are weak but we do not create. We need the wing backs or wingers as a priority.
