Fulham remains winless after three consecutive losses to start the season, heading into challenging fixtures against Liverpool and Manchester United. Despite these setbacks, Fulham displayed promising attacking football, particularly from Josh King and Alex Iwobi. Iwobi created five chances without misplacing a pass, while goalkeeper Bernd Leno's form has been strong. The team's performance suggests they could convert draws into wins with better luck. Their next matches against United and Liverpool will be crucial for Alvaro Arbeloa's side.

"Following three consecutive losses to start the season, Fulham might not have been thrilled to see a trip to Anfield and the visit of Manchester United as their next fixtures. As at Liverpool last weekend, there was some eye-catching football on show from Fulham, playing out from the back and going smoothly from one end to the other in a flash. The exciting Josh King, still just 19, will rightly be praised for his showing but perhaps the key for the west Londoners will be the vastly underrated Alex Iwobi.
