We asked you to tell us one thing nobody is taking about at Fulham but should be.

Here are some of your comments:

Simon: Why does Andreas Pereira still start every week? On paper his stats look good but most fans, who watch him every week, will see that his real contribution is much less effective than what we need in that role. He has to up his game or lose his place.

Tim: People seem to overlook what depth we have. The second string would have been our first XI not long ago. Getting everyone settled down so quickly is the real success story.

Luke: Lukic has perfectly replaced Palhinha. All through the summer, pundits and Fulham fans alike were talking about how much Fulham would struggle without Palhinha. But so far this season, I haven’t heard anyone bring it up. A combination of a much higher press and Lukic’s amazing ability has quietened the media.

Andy: Marco Silva's unjustified favouritism of Andreas Pereira. Andreas hasn't had a good game so far this season but never gets dropped. We've even changed formation this season to accommodate him, while form players like Wilson and Nelson are on the bench and we have to put up with consistently ineffective dead balls - highlighted by the penalty debacle.
