Emile Smith Rowe finally moved on from Arsenal this summer after a torrid few seasons and he looks like he’s approaching his best again in a Fulham shirt.
Smith Rowe was one of a number of Fulham players to perform yesterday as they saw off Newcastle United with ease at Craven Cottage.
Smith Rowe got himself a goal to set his Fulham career alight and overall, it was the performance of a player who is very much back enjoying his football.
Of course, Arsenal got around £30m for their academy product and they’ll be pleased to see him doing well.
And admitting things had been tough, Smith Rowe has now opened up on his current state of mind.
