Impact The defender was given his marching orders late in the second half and will miss the trip to Manchester City next week, though he could be eligible to face Luton Town after the break unless his ban gets extended.

Willian - Ruled out against Gunners Willian (undisclosed) is not on the squad for Saturday's match against Arsenal.
Impact Willian was ticketed as doubtful by manager Marco Silva, who told reporters earlier this week that the Brazilian was a "slight" doubt. There aren't further details regarding the issue he's dealing with, though his next chance to feature will come against Manchester City next Saturday. Bobby Decordova-Reid will remain in the XI with Willian out.

Willian - In doubt Saturday Willian is dealing with an undisclosed injury, raising doubts regarding his availability versus Arsenal on Saturday. Manager Marco Silva told reporters, "We have a slight doubt on...
Impact Willian started the season opener versus Everton before being taken off at halftime and then was utilized off the bench against Brentford on Saturday, so his potential absence may not impact the starting XI. Still, if available, the forward should get minutes even if he doesn't start. Adama Traore could see more opportunities if Willian is sidelined long-term.

Raul Jimenez - Registers two shots Jimenez had two shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 3-0 loss to Brentford.
Impact Jimenez had a very quiet game in the attack only contributing two shots, one tackle and four clearances Saturday. The Mexican international has not had an amazing start to his Fulham career, only notching three shots to go with zero goal contributions in his first two matches. The forward will now have to step it up with the exit of Aleksandar Mitrovic being confirmed after the match on Saturday.
AUGUST 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Andreas Pereira - Notches eight crosses in loss Pereira generated one shot (zero on goal), eight crosses (zero accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 3-0 loss against Brentford.
Impact Pereira was probably Fulham's best attacker in Saturday's match, generating eight crosses and one shot in the loss. His performance wasn't anything special but it was nearly a bright spot in Fulham's horrible performance against Brentford. The 27-year-old seems to now be fully recovered from injuries after playing the full 90 today and will be a normal starter in the squad while also being the teams main set-piece taker.
AUGUST 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bernd Leno - Allows three in loss Leno registered five saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-0 defeat against Brentford.
Impact Leno was far from his outstanding opening day performance against Fulham today as he allowed three goals while saving five shots. After picking up a clean sheet to go along with nine saves last match again Everton, Leno looked absolutely brutal in net. The 31-year-old was unlucky to have to face a penalty but could've done much better on the third goal and should've had better positioning to prevent the first goal. The next couple matches will not get any easier for him either as he takes on Arsenal and then Manchester City. He will also have to deal with the loss of captain and starting center back Tim Ream for the next match against Arsenal as he is suspended with a red card. Leno will have to be outstanding in goal for these next two matches or it could be two long weeks for Fulham.
AUGUST 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tim Ream - Sent off against Brentford Ream was sent off in the second half of Saturday's match against Brentford after receiving a second yellow card.
Impact Ream was shown the second yellow card after committing a penalty to Kevin Schade midway through the second half. As a result, the veteran defender will miss next week's trip to Arsenal, though he could return to the lineup when Fulham take on Manchester City on Sep. 2. Calvin Bassey is the most likely replacement option for the Arsenal match.
AUGUST 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Joao Palhinha - Makes bench Saturday Palhinha (shoulder) is available off the bench to face Brentford on Saturday.
Impact Palhinha's return is a huge boost for Fulham, and even if he's not ready to start, he's quite likely to see a few minutes off the bench. Sasa Lukic and Harrison Reed will start as central midfielders against Brentford, but Palhinha should replace one of the two as soon as he's ready to play a full match.

Aleksandar Mitrovic - Out against Brentford Mitrovic will miss Saturday's match against Brentford because of an ankle injury, according to manager Marco Silva. "I don't have this information (on any bids). He's out of the ga...
Impact This statement is the least bit convincing from Silva, as Mitrovic is said to have signed a deal with a Saudi Arabia club. No matter, Mitrovic won't be an option Saturday and maybe ever again for Fulham with Raul Jimenez and Carlos Vinicius set to share the starting striker role this season.

Joao Palhinha - Available to face Brentford Palhinha (shoulder) "is going to be involved in the game, in the squad at least" for Saturday's match against Brentford, according to manager Marco Silva.
Impact After being spotting in training earlier in the week, this was thought to be the case for Palhinha. Of course, as Silva noted, he probably isn't ready to start given his time off, so it'll likely be at least another week before that's the case. At best, he'll come off the bench to get a few minutes against Brentford.

Joao Palhinha - Pictured on pitch Palhinha (shoulder) was pictured on the training pitch Wednesday ahead of Saturday's match against Brentford.
Impact Palhinha will hopefully have a better update from Marco Silva at his press conference for Saturday's match, but it seems like he's getting closer. He wasn't taking part in contact training 10 days ago, but there's a chance that has changed since then. Given that lack of fitness, he won't be ready to start in his first match back, but it's a good sign either way for the Fulham midfield, assuming he doesn't transfer elsewhere.
AUGUST 16, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Tim Ream - Returns to EPL play Ream generated five clearances in Saturday's 1-0 win over Everton.
Impact Ream made his first start since breaking his arm in April. He had been averaging about 3.3 clearances prior to his injury and will look to pick up where he left off last season after completing five clearances against Everton.
AUGUST 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Antonee Robinson - Three crosses in season debut Robinson recorded three crosses (zero accurate) and three tackles in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Everton.
Impact Robinson started and played the full 90 minutes Saturday while totaling three crosses and three tackles . He had been a regular starter last season while keeping healthy with 35 starts 35 appearances, therefore is expected to keep the same role for the new campaign.
AUGUST 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Issa Diop - Great defensive performance Diop recorded one tackle (zero won) and nine clearances in Saturday's 1-0 victory over Everton.
Impact Diop completed nine clearances for the first time since his move to Fulham, helping them to their first clean sheet of the season. With this performance, the defender is set to keep his center back role this season while looking to keep consistency throughout the campaign.
AUGUST 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bobby Reid - Scores off bench Decordova-Reid scored one goal to go with three shots (one on target) in Saturday's 1-0 win over Everton.
Impact Decordova-Reid came off the bench to score the lone goal in the match Saturday. He has tough competition for a starting role over Harry Wilson and Willian, however is making a good claim for himself after scoring he winning goal against Everton for possible starts in future games.
AUGUST 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Bernd Leno - Upstanding in first match Leno made nine saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Everton.
Impact Leno had a brilliant performance in his season debut, totaling nine saves for the first time since Jan 12. Completing saves is nothing new for the keeper as he generated 144 last season, which was the second most in the league. He will welcome a visit from Brentford in the next game on Aug 19, who have scored five goals in the last to league outings against them.
