Entertaining first half 1-0.
Good for marketing the Championship here in the States with no other live sports on major TV at this time at all on a Saturday morning.
There could easily be a few goals for either side although Fulham looked better as the half wore on. Sessignon an interesting young left back with a lot of pace. Looked him up and saw that that Utd and Liverpool wanted him before signing a new contract this summer. Unfortunately, he'll probably wind up at one of them next summer.
Gunn looking very comfortable at this level. I saw him struggle to push away a defender on one corner, and seems that strength may be something he will need to work on, despite his overall size, clearly isn't as muscular as say, Ederson. Given that he is quite young beefing up can come with age anyway and working out. I know some won't like the cross city comparison, but he does have a bit of a De Gea-like frame, so maybe won't need to too much more as he struggled with this when first in the league.
After the first save his teammates came over and congratulated him, which surely all together is good for his confidence and development. He keeps this up and he will have an excellent chance to be our backup keeper next season.
