Podcast: Tumbleweed on Thames
25th July 2024
There is a lack of new faces at Motspur Park, and Fulham’s squad looks very thin as we hurtle towards that opening day at Old Trafford. A year ago today, Fulham made the first signing of 23/24, but as of right now, the squad looks a lot weaker than it did at the end of the last campaign.
There is some news – Rodrigo Muniz has taken the Number 9 shirt, which sparks a discussion about his role in the squad ahead of this season; and we get into some of the latest names linked with the Cottagers – Samuele Ricci, Crysencio Summerville, Kalvin Phillips, Scott McTominay, Jota Silva, Alexis Saelemaekers and Jayden Oosterwolde, as well as revisiting the latest on André, which is now firmly a saga.
There’s also time to talk about Jay Stansfield and the reported offers from Birmingham for his services, and some thoughts on the Academy as a whole; the latest addition to our pre-season tour which feels like another slap in the face to fans; and the state of the Hammersmith End toilets!
