Ah how must it feel to be unbeaten for months, scoring goals for fun and safe in the knowledge that whilst your beloved manager is off, the club have a successor already in place?

Bournemouth rock up to the Cottage full of confidence and in a coveted 6th place which *could* be enough for Champions League football next season.

But despite the clash in vibes and in styles of play on the pitch - a win for Fulham would put us right in the mix for European football too

So will it happen? Can our patient passing finally unlock some goals? And do we have the solidity and physicality to deal with a dynamic Bournemouth attack?

Join Sam and Kish as they discuss this key clash at the Cottage with Cherries fan and friend of the pod James Musselwhite

Let's take a trip down memory lane to 2023-24. Bobby De Cordova-Reid is playing anywhere and everywhere and still popping up with goals. Andreas Pereira is a relentless nuisance. And Joao Palhinha is as deadly in the box as he is in the tackle.

The upshot is four points from our two games against an Arsenal side, who ended up losing out on the Premier League title to Manchester City by just two points

So could Fulham shoot down the Gunners again when we go to the Emirates on Saturday evening?

Join Sam and Kish as they discuss such a prospect with Arsenal fan and friend of the pod, Archie Gaskin.
