Do you believe that’s a key contributor to the recent struggles? What is a reasonable expectation for Savio this season? Does he need improvement, meet expectations, or exceed expectations? What is going on with Oscar Bobb? - We aren’t seeing much of Khusanov, Marmoush, and Ait Nouri. Any idea why? Pep’s contract ends the summer of 2027. The pre match interviews for Fulham Pep seemed exhausted by the same silly questions every week. Do you see him finishing the contract? Is there a world he could extend past 2027? Nico G needs support in the midfield handling the physicality of opponents. Can this problem be solved by someone on the squad? Is there a move in January that could happen?
