Marco Silva is fretting over a Fulham injury crisis after he saw Sander Berge and Harry Wilson limp out of a soporific stalemate against bottom of the table Southampton.
The Whites lost Kenny Tete for two months at Liverpool last weekend and after Emile Smith Rowe picked up a knock in training this weekend, Silva’s thin squad could face its toughest test against Chelsea on Boxing Day. Fulham’s engine room could be further diminished after substitute Sasa Lukic went down clutching his shoulder.
The Fulham head coach said:
“Not good signs for Sander and Sasa. Lukic was out a long time with his shoulder, but he felt something in final minutes.”ng
Silva was also pleased by the emergence of teenage midfielder Josh King.
He is a great talent. It is not a coincidence that he had a chance to start the game. He showed in some spells of the game what he is capable to do. It’s an important moment of his career. Let’s hope there are more to come.”
