Q: What have you made of your team’s start to the season?
A: I’m really happy with how the season has gone. We’re still in with a chance of making the play-offs, and I think that, even if we do stay down, we could well win the Championship next season anyway. Fulham are a great football, and we’ve got one of the best manager’s in the division at our club.
Q: What are your opinions on your manager?
A: Love him. He’s brought a proper attacking style of play to Fulham. I’m glad we’ve finally got the appointment right.

Q: What are your views on the board?
A: Wasn’t sure on Shahid Khan when he took Fulham over and, in all honesty, I’m still not. However, he invests in the side every year and you can’t complain about that. Hopefully he’ll invest again this summer.
Q: Who is your favourite current player?
A: Tom Cairney.
Q: Who is your favourite ever player?
A: Clint Dempsey.

Q: What has been your best memory of the club?
A: Reaching the Europa League final in 2010.
Q: What has been your most disappointing moment?
A: Losing that final, albeit to a very good Atletico Madrid side.
Q: What has been your most shocking moment?
A: Relegation from the Premier League a few years ago.
Q: Describe the best goal you ever saw at your club’s home ground
A: Plenty of Danny Murphy free-kicks back in the day.
Q: Which ground is your favourite away day?
A: Stamford Bridge (Chelsea).

Q: Who do you consider to be the club’s biggest rival and why?
A: Chelsea – and we always seem to get a result against them!
Q: Who do you feel has been the club’s best and worst summer signing?
A: Best has been Aluko, worst I would say was Chris Martin, purely due to the saga around him wanting to go back to Derby. We only want players who are 100% committed.

Q: Who is your one player to watch out for this season?
A: Tom Cairney – he will play for England one day.
Q: Is there a particular youth player that excites you, and why?
A: Ryan Sessegnon – don’t expect him to be here after the summer. Great talent.

Q: Where do you think the club will look to strengthen in the summer?
A: A new striker, new centre-half and another attacking midfielder.
Q: Finally, what are your aims for this season, and where do you think your club will finish?
A: Aim for the play-offs but if it doesn’t happen, we go again next season!
